  • I've found a hit with my picky dh: green garlic and swiss chard risotto. Odd, huh? I cobbled it together from a green garlic risotto recipe and a chard risotto recipe. Making it again tonight.

    It's mostly this green garlic risotto recipe. But I cut up swiss chard and add it per this recipe (and I'm not using any leeks because I couldn't find any). I'm using actual green garlic, or scapes, the young garlic shoots that are picked fresh and look like green onions. They're in season at the farmers market this time of year.

  • I made these burgers (minus the ketchup and chorizo and I used pepperjack) http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/guy-fieri/killer-inside-out-burger-with-worcestershire-tomato-ketchup-recipe/index.html

    With this sauce http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-live/garlic-aioli-recipe/index.html

    And caramelized onions.

    It turned our really good! I had to cook it a little longer because it too pink for my taste but definitely a good/messy burger.

  • Let's just say that between getting horribly sick on Monday night and *other* exciting news, food has not been a top priority for me this week! Yesterday was a good day because I was able to eat food with flavor! Tonight, I made a delicious stand-by: Tomato Basil Chicken over pasta. And I might cook up a bunch of potatoes tomorrow, since baked potatoes with veggies are very tasty and easy to digest right now!
