With all that is going on in the world, the one thing I feel I have some control over is what and how I eat. With that in mind, I recently acquired America’s Test Kitchen’s Anti-Inflammatory Cookbook and have been leaning in on including more whole grains, more vegetables, and a hopefully more healthy approach…

After several weeks of indulgent eating, my digestive system was more than ready for a return to our regularly scheduled meals. Our Winter Share at Clark Farms CSA has ended, but we still have some wonderful long-storage veggies with which to cook. This week, I used the last of the organic purple cabbage and winter…

In our family, we have shared kitchen duties, so full disclosure, this recipe was prepared by Adrien and engineered to use lots of our Clark Farm organic produce and their ground lamb. The recipe was so unlike the shepherd’s pie recipes that found their way into our school cafeterias and even quite different from what…

I freely admit to making changes to recipes to reflect whatever we have in our pantry. This roasted salmon, one-pan dinner is no exception to that – we’ve received an abundance of potatoes from our Clark Farm Winter CSA Share, so in place of buying new, presumably red potatoes specifically for this recipe, I used…

Our Winter Share from Clark Farms Carlisle included a beautiful head of organic purple cabbage. Cabbages, especially the purple variety are great nutrient dense foods, excellent for reducing inflammation. After the past few weeks of holiday eating and indulging, this salad was a great way to incorporate some more, shall we say, nutrition-friendly foods into…

Part of our Clark Farm Winter Share this past week was the root vegetable, celeraic. I can say with a fair amount of accuracy that I’ve never cooked this vegetable before, and although there are times when I’ve walked past it in the produce section, I wouldn’t have had a clue what to do with…

After indulging for the holidays this week, we have come to the conclusion that we need to take a beat with the rich foods. In fact, I recently became aware of a new America’s Test Kitchen book, The Complete Anti-Inflammatory Cookbook. This delicious offering comes from that book (page 163). Substituting and eating more whole…

When I finally got a taste of freshly dug potatoes, I couldn’t believe how different they were. Over the last couple of weeks our Winter Share from Clark Farm Carlisle has included potatoes; potatoes are definitely on Adrien’s list of favorites and so I was off to find new ways to prepare them. I’ve made…

We enjoy a transition period from working to relaxing at the end of each day. Even as retirees, we’ve kept up this habit which in French culture is called Cinq à Sept. Throughout COVID, when we were isolating, we got pretty darn good at mixology (spirit-based or mocktail) thanks to some YouTubers and books (shoutout…

We love Brussel sprouts. We love them roasted, steamed, pan-fried, and raw. We love them the day they are cooked, and we love them for leftovers. I know you may not share our enthusiasm, but bear with me. I’m used to finding Brussel sprouts in our local grocery store, but they always are in a…
