COUSCOUS RISOTTO WITH TOMATOES & MOZZARELLA

A quick evening recipe from New York Times cooking. Watch how much salt you add! I put in too much to start. Add more at the end, if needed.

WARM AUSTRIAN POTATO SALAD

This recipe is not your traditional potato salad for the summer but has the advantage of not being mayo-based, so it can last longer without refrigeration.

LASAGNA SOUP

This is another New York Times recipe. A quick way to have a lasagna alternative that tastes delicious. There are a lot of ingredients, but it's easy to make!

RICOTTA MEATBALLS

We’re on a bit of a ricotta kick lately. And these meatballs are moist and tasty! You can bake them and freeze for later use or cook them in a large pan with your favorite marinara sauce!

LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES

This recipe is an old one from the New York Times. I can't find the original but was able to recreate it a few weeks ago from memory. These are sweet and don't need a lot of syrup. We usually eat with some jam. They taste great the next day, even cold.

VEGAN CHICK’N CAESAR PASTA SALAD

A new lunch favorite in our household. A great way to sneak chickpeas and kale into your day! Art said I could have fooled him into thinking it wasn’t vegan. But if you’d rather swap for non-vegan alternatives, be our guest. This is a batch recipe that would last you 2 servings a day for a week - perfect if you have a roommate or partner. Otherwise, just halve the recipe!

SOY-GLAZED CHICKEN WITH PICKLED CUCUMBERS

This one is pretty quick on a weeknight. The latter recipe is simple but takes forever to cook. Make on a lazy, rainy afternoon while watching a movie!

HERB SKILLET CHICKEN WITH GREENS

I made this on a weeknight. Fairly quick and pretty tasty - a great recipe from NYT Cooking! In this easy skillet meal, seared boneless chicken thighs are nestled on a bed of herbs, browned whole garlic cloves and greens before the pan is popped into the oven to roast until golden.
