File Gumbo / Chez HeleneThe late Chef Austin Leslie left a brilliant legacy of Creole dishes and he helped form my approach to the cuisine of NOLA. I follow no other recipe than the one he left me. When a dish is perfect, why stray? Fresh ingredients will tell the tale. Now, as my mentor Paula Wolfert admonishes: "Relax and follow the recipe"! |

Stuffed Peppers - Mexican Taco StyleStuffed Peppers are so easy to change up flavor wise. These are made with a Mexican taco flavor. I used cous-cous instead of rice because my son doesn't really like rice. But you can use rice, cracked wheat or quinoa whatever you like. I also use mild chilies but for a spicier dish you could use jalapenos. For the meat in this… |

Penne Alfredo with Italian Sausage and ZucchiniI had this dish at a local diner and loved it. So I recreated it at home it's an easy tasty dish. It looks like you spent a lot of time making it and it comes together so easily. In this picture I used just zucchini but I have made it with summer squash or a mix of both, whatever I have on hand, and it's great. |

Spaghetti with Baby Clams & LinguicaThis is a tasty pasta dish. It is quick to make and will serve four nicely. I would have used linguine instead of spaghetti but didn't have any on hand. Chorizo or bacon could be substituted for the linguica. I served the pasta with a green salad. For a wine I chose a Rombauer 2012 Carneros Chardonnay. It worked well with the… |

Cane Rosso's Soppresatta PizzaThis delicious pizza is a copycat I made when a friend named Kelly took me to the Cane Rosso Restaurant (Red Dog) to figure out what the ingredients were. The base sauce is habanero honey jelly. |
