One of the best recipes I have learned this year is Shakshuka! It combines many of my favorite flavors, can have a whole lot of heat and is very hearty without being too heavy on the calories. Shakshuka is a dish that can have an endless combination of flavors, but for me, there are a…

Tandoori Chicken with Roasted Cauliflower
Tandoori chicken is one of my most favorite dishes!! It is incredibly versatile and can be used with a variety of dishes. The spices are incredibly fragrant and warming and soak into the meat in a wonderful way. I do not make a traditional tandoori chicken because I use boneless chicken instead of bone-in chicken,…

Linguine with clams and chorizo

Lamb Tagine
A few months ago I went on a trip to Paris to visit my best friend who had moved there earlier in the year. We did many of the tourist things, we visited the Eiffel Tower, we hiked up to Montmartre and we had hot chocolate at Angelina. On one of the last night nights…
Moroccan Spiced Lamb Burgers
One of my first memories is when I was six years old and my mother told me that we were going to eat frog legs for dinner. I remember sitting down at our favorite French restaurant with eyes wide open and staring at the frog legs on my plate. I honestly cannot remember if I…
