Spicy Shrimp on Spinach by John SpottiswoodWe made this as one of the dishes at our annual stay at the Koehler Winery near in Los Olivos near Santa Barbara. Everything we made was delicious, but this might have been my favorite. We served it as an appetizer, and everyone raved about it. It was extremely easy and quick and the presentation was beautiful. I made this with a… |

Miner's Mush by LyndseyMy French Canadian grandma used to make this for my dad and all his siblings. It has become a Jordan family staple. I like it with the anise, but feel free to adjust the amount or eliminate it all together. Kids generally don't like it with anise. |

French Bread by Bread Machine by Salad FoodieThis recipe requires the French Bread setting on my bread machine, best suited for bread doughs low in fat and sugar; this results in a crisp crust and coarse, chewy exterior.

Sauteed Spinach with Garlic by John SpottiswoodThis is a delicious and healthy dish that takes 5 minutes to make and goes with almost anything--asian, mediterranean or american. Barefoot Contessa has a similar recipe but adds butter and extra salt. You don't need that, but can add if you like. Fresh spinach is much better than frozen in this dish. |

But when coated with the right vinaigrette, flash fried, or sautéed, Brussels sprouts have a complex richness, an earthy savoriness that fills your mouth. There’s nothing like it. |
