This recipe for Vegan Vegetable Tian layers gorgeous, bright summer vegetables and fresh herbs in an au gratin dish for an easy side dish. Heirloom tomatoes, zucchini squash, summer squash, and eggplant combine with crispy fried basil for a little fun. Because anything with this many veggies should incorporate a…
A few weeks ago I was looking to make a new traditional crab cake recipe and thought it would be perfect with a little tartar or remoulade sauce. To my dismay, nearly every recipe included relish or pickles! As a lot of us know it’s really difficult to find pickles…
This pan-seared salmon that’s surrounded by a decadent creamy garlic sauce filled with lightly sautéed spinach is to die for. It looks really complicated and fancy, but is actually quite easy. Since everything cooks in one pan, there’s minimal clean up. I love to serve this by itself or along…
