African Chicken in Peanut Sauce by John SpottiswoodI first had this in graduate school when a classmate from Ghana cooked it for an International progressive dinner. I fell in love with the combination of sweet peanuts and pungent spices. This is not a flavor you will easily forget, and it will keep you coming back for more! |

Alton Brown Lentil Soup by John SpottiswoodI adapted this recipe from one by Alton Brown. I added spinach, potatoes, and scallions and removed grains of paradise.

It blends in with the wine, meat and vegetables to make a luscious combination. This recipe… |
