After spending the whole day cooking and canning and hunching over the cutting board and stove, I really didn't want to put a ton of effort into dinner. My countertop was covered in fresh tomatoes from outside, and I figured I might as well try to use as many as I can before giving up

Most of the cookies I've been making this holiday season have been either family favorites that date back to at least when I was a kid or they were requested by people dear to me. These ones, though, are a different kind of nostalgia hit for me. My dad loves spumoni, which is a style

Today's cookies are a trial for a classic Italian cookie cake that I will be making later this month for our choir's Christmas concert. These were made as a Thanksgiving dessert designed for everyone to enjoy, including my father-in-law who isn't much a fan of sweets. Instead of making a mince pie or something else

Limoncello is an Italian liqueur made with lemon peels, alcohol, sugar, and patience. If you want to put your leftover naked lemons to use, make a double batch of this recipe and then use the fruit and any leftover alcohol to make hard lemonade (or regular lemonade)! This is a set-it-and-forget-it recipe with a quick prep

Don't let the ingredient list fool you, this recipe is super easy, super healthy, and super filling. It can also easily be converted into a vegetarian recipe by swapping out the chicken for some extra firm or firm tofu. Make it vegan with a cheese substitute. When we make this recipe (as I try to

Eggplant is kind of a strange fruit. It's mostly water, and other than providing a reasonable amount of dietary fiber (about 5 grams per cup of eggplant), it really doesn't have much else to offer on its own. However, its blandness and lack of... everything makes it a great vehicle for sauces, breadings, and other

I have been loving my new cast iron skillet! Now that I know how to clean it, I've been using it almost weekly, and the dinners that come out of it are out of this world. Personally, I'm a fan of chicken and fish, and now that I've ventured into the realm of cast iron

I haven't posted a dinner in a while, so I figure that it's about time I did. Chicken is one of those meats that's generally agreeable, even with hardcore carnivores like the boyfriend (who is more of the mindset that chicken is just a higher order vegetable). While it's often prepared as a relatively light

This is my take on a traditional Caprese salad, which is made of tomato, mozzarella, basil, salt, and olive oil. This is more of a... "Ca*me*se" salad. I decided to use balsamic vinegar instead of olive oil and salt.I say this is "the most Italian thing you'll probably ever eat" because the original dish was

One of my readers, Frank, visited a local restaurant and decided to write a review. Here is what he had to say:One Monday, my wife Lisa and I found ourselves on the Penfield - Webster border for a business appointment. We were a few minutes early. While waiting, we noticed a restaurant next door. It
