  • Pan-Browned Brussels Sprouts

    The first time I had brussels sprouts was when I was a kid at my friend’s house. They were so good. I have never been able to make them like Beverly. I prefer fresh sprouts over frozen because freezing vegetables such as asparagus and brussels sprouts makes them soggy and rubbery. Source: Epicurious. 1/2 pound…

    When I was living in West Palm Beach Florida, I practically lived at the local Whole Foods. It was near my place of work making it an easy stop for lunch. One winter when I was really sick I ate the Miso soup everyday. To this day whenever I am sick I love to snuggle…

  • Chicken Pot Pie

    ,

    I love chicken pot pie. For me, a well made chicken pot pie is the quintessential comfort food. I have experienced countless failures searching for that perfect recipe.
