Spiced Rack of Lamb over Parsnip, Fennel Puree and Roasted Root Vegetables (2 Hour Total Cook Time)

Quick Overview: Lamb is this deliciously juicy yet flavorful protein that I’ve always really wanted to make but never got to due to time constraints and other life reasons.  That said, a rather ambitious idea for a recipe entered my head the other day so I had to go out and make it.  About halfway through […]

Surf and Turf with a radicchio and pickled radish salad (1.5-2 hours?)

Special Shoutout to my friend Mitch for letting me use his kitchen while I was visiting him.  He also cooks (and bakes too) so you should check out his instagram @mitrea32 to see what he’s been up to (we made a chocolate souffle recently which I will also share the recipe of later).

That said, I think there’s something to be said about keeping things simple if they’re delicious already 🙂 Ingredients: A […]

Espresso Rubbed Blackened Salmon with Lentil Herb Rice and Wilted Chard (.75-1 Total Cook Time)

Quick Overview: (Makes 2 servings for a single person) I recently started using a mealdelivery service called Sun Basket which sends food to your doorstep and they give you recipes on what to do and then you make them.  So far I’ve enjoyed my experiences with them.  That said, since I’m me, I kind of refuse […]
