	Cod Cakes with ChowChow Relish by Patricia Stagich Chow-Chow is a Nova Scotian and American relish that uses up those end-of-the-garden-season "orphaned" vegetables from the garden. I don't exactly know where it originates from, but I've seen recipes from the South (a staple whenever pinto beans and cornbread are served) and also from the Pennsylvania Dutch. No matter where chowchow…	2 votes 818 views

	Quick Garlic Dill Pickles by Patricia Stagich My vegetable garden was a complete flop this year. Probably due to the excessive heat we had. Luckily, I have a Farmer's Market nearby where I can get lots of fresh produce. I have been waiting for the little kirbys to arrive so I can make my pickles. They finally came in yesterday!

	Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies by Patricia Stagich Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup CookiesThe original name of this recipe was "Magic in the Middles". But I called it as I see it; or rather taste it. Chocolate and peanut butter have a truly symbiotic relationship; each brings out the best in each other.

	Baked Zucchini Sticks and Sweet Onion Dip by Patricia Stagich Here is a guilt-free way to enjoy the crunchy outside (and juicy inside) of a restaurant-style zucchini stick. The recipe call for olive oil spray and egg substitute or egg whites for a healthier version, but I used 2 large eggs and extra-virgin olive oil. Either way, they are addicting! If you don't make the zucchini, try the…	1 vote 674 views
	Fresh Ravioli Stuffed with Pear and Pecorino Cheese by Patricia Stagich I have been waiting to make this recipe ever since I visited Felidia's in NYC for my birthday in June. We ordered a family style "tasting menu" and this was one of the pasta courses. We were teased with only two of these delicious ravioli simply served in a butter sauce. As soon as we tasted them...we stopped...looked at each and…	1 vote 1 comment 567 views

Especially where there is no breading and frying involved. This is a light baked dish, a roulade that has the crunch of breadcrumbs in a light, lemony sauce.Cut each breast in half crosswise. Pound gently to flatten them slightly, to about…	1 vote 360 views
