Thai Peanut Sauce Fried Rice

Thai Peanut Sauce Fried Rice by Nick Roche

This rice dish pairs very well with the Basil Baked Game Hen entree. The flavors are exquisite with just a touch of heat. Each bite will have you going back for more (you may even find yourself sneaking a small bowl of it as a later evening snack). Not only will this rice dish hold its head high against the best of restaurant fried…

Peas & Pancetta

Peas & Pancetta by La Tavola Marche (farm, inn & cooking school)

Sweet peas have arrived at the farmers market, spring is here! Peas & pancetta - one of my favorite dishes that I only eat in Spring when the peas are bright & fresh. I can't get enough, I don't know if it's the peas or the pancetta - is it the green veggie or the fatty pork that I love so?! Maybe I should just have another…

Salmon Saltimbocca

Salmon Saltimbocca by Bob Vincent

This is a wide left turn on Saltimbocca ala Romano normally made with Veal Scaloppine. I used salmon instead. Saltimbocca translates into "Jump-In-The-Mouth." Though I didn't make a sauce for the dish you certainly could if you want. A butter, garlic, white wine, shallot and sage sauce would work. I served the dish with lemon…

Balsamic Chicken

Balsamic Chicken by Kristen Podulka

I will admit–I make this recipe a lot. It’s so easy, so tasty, and done in no time. Plus my family and I love it! My favorite way to serve this chicken dish is with mashed potatoes and steamed green beans. But it also goes well on whole wheat pasta or along side Oven Baked Rice. See if it becomes a regular dinner in your house!

Pork Tenderloin With Red Wine Demi Glaze

Pork Tenderloin With Red Wine Demi Glaze by Bob Vincent

This is a simple but elegant entree. Pork tenderloin pounded thin and combined with mushrooms, red wine and demi glaze. The stock is key to this dish. If you don't make your own you should. It makes all the difference and is not that difficult to make. Yes, it is rich. Eat occasionally and serve as a great dinner party entree.…

Sauteed Kale with Bacon and Cashews

Sauteed Kale with Bacon and Cashews by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious recipe for sauteed Kale. If you are vegetarian, you can leave out the bacon and you will still have a delicious side dish. This also makes a beautiful presentation to accompany any main dish. The green of the kale contrasts beautifully with the golden color of the toasted cashews.

Mushroom Filled Potato Pancakes

Mushroom Filled Potato Pancakes by John Spottiswood

These are healthy, relatively low calorie, and very tasty potato pancakes that I adapted from Jacques Pepin. Sauteed simply in a little oil, they have about 200 calories in each serving of three pancakes. I served them as a side dish to Chicken Chasseur (will post soon), but they would also make a great appetizer.
