We’re starting a new venture with community-supported agriculture this year, and we’re signed up with Rise ‘n Shine Organic Farm. Two weeks into it now, we’ve racked up plenty of good things – lettuce, kale, radishes, swiss chard, carrots – and also supplements of local honey, pecans, and grits since the growing season here is… Continue reading Acorn Squash with Kale and Pecans

Peppers Stuffed with Curried Beef
I am overly fond of martabak, a savory, meat-stuffed pancake that one of our nearby Thai restaurants has on the appetizer menu.

When people talk of how productive their plants are, and they “just don’t know what to do with… Continue reading Twice-Cooked Zucchini Boats
Pork Roast with Apple and Bacon Stuffing
Modified from Food Network Recipe by Paula Deen Finally, the first day of fall! My favorite time of the year, but it’s hard to pick a single reason why I love fall so much.

Chicken Stuffed with Brie and Walnuts – An Experiment
Back in the 80’s when I lived in Chapel Hill, NC, there was a restaurant called McCarthy’s Grill. They served a stuffed chicken breast with a flavor that haunts me still, and I have absolutely no idea what was actually in it. I remember walnuts, a mustard sauce, perhaps some kind of cheese. This recipe… Continue reading Chicken Stuffed with Brie and Walnuts – An Experiment
