Lemon & Garlic Green Beans by John SpottiswoodIt is rare to have a side dish which everyone keeps reaching for instead of the main dish. That's especially true if its a fairly simple green vegetable side. But these green beans were truly that good. We used packaged, thin french cut green beans from Trader Joes. They are tender and tasty on their own, but I've never had them taste… |

Roasted Broccoli by John SpottiswoodThis roasted broccoli recipe, adapted from the Barefoot Contessa, is really wonderful. It has a lot of flavor. We served it with a mild pasta, and it was just a wonderful combination. Don't be worried by the lemon juice and zest. They impart a subtle flavor that adds a nice dimension to this dish. |

Cauliflower Canapés by Denise RomeoCauliflower is highly under-rated! It is good served hot in casseroles, cold in salad, pickled, or even in soup. The first time my husband made this cauliflower puree, I was skeptical, but now it is one of my very favorite appetizers. |

Italian Steak Salad by John SpottiswoodWe adapted this from a Giada De Laurentis recipe. It's simple, but incredibly delicious. Our kids powered through more than we imagined possible. No leftovers at all! The biggest change was serving the steak hot of the grill instead of chilled. That makes a huge positive difference I think...as the warm steak contrasts wonderfully… |

Basil Dipping Oil by Bob VincentThis is an easy and quick dipping oil. It is a nice dipping oil for freshly baked breads. I did not add salt, pepper or other ingredients that may seem appropriate.

PURPLE AND WHITE EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA--BAKED--NOT FRIED by Cecelia HeerI think that the first time I ever made eggplant parmigiana was in 1979. Back then, it was the "typical pizza parlor" dish with eggplant fried in vegetable oil and then covered with that Polly-O mozzarella cheese "stuff" that was wrapped in plastic and tasted as such, dusted with Parmigiano "cheese" that had the consistency of baby… |
