Love roasted vegetable sides? Try my balsamic glazed brussels sprouts, curried cauliflower, roasted potatoes and carrots, and roasted root vegetables next. If winter squash is a staple during the cooler months, you must add roasted honeynut squash to your rotation. I often find this squash at farmers’ markets and greengrocers, but thanks to its popularity, more and more mainstream grocery stores like Whole Foods and Costco are now stocking it....

Love seafood recipes? Try sauteed shrimp, Chilean sea bass, and rainbow trout. If there’s one dish my family and I can always agree on for dinner, it’s probably salmon. It’s such a healthy protein that takes well to a variety of cooking methods, whether it be air-fryer salmon, oven-baked salmon, or cast iron salmon. I decided to stray a bit from my usual seasonings for this recipe. To give it an Asian flare, I tossed the salmon in fresh ginger and tamari....

Searching for more sugar-free holiday desserts? Try my keto chocolate bark, sugar-free hot cocoa mix, and keto rum balls next. My Christmas traditions involve a few key things, but the most important one is snagging a box of peppermint bark from the iconic Williams-Sonoma. While this tradition is still alive and well, I wanted to try making my own, but a sugar-free version. Not to toot my own horn, but I think I’ve done a bang-up job!...

The other day, a restaurant near our house hosted a special “summer vegetable” dinner menu, of the 4-course + wine pairings variety. We jumped at the chance because it’s one of the best restaurants in town, and we’re all about celebrating veggies, which aren’t often in the spotlight here in meat-loving Indiana. It was fabulous. We’re still talking about the ramen with smoked onion dashi (so flavorful). The other highlight was unexpected: a simple summer vegetables salad and this intensely flavorful sesame buttermilk dressing....

Here’s an interesting mixer for tequila that makes one surprisingly balanced drink: Tequila and Ginger Ale! Ginger beer is often mixed with tequila in a Mexican Mule, but ginger ale is something altogether different. The sweet, delicately bubbly ale makes a surprisingly tasty pair with the oaky and vanilla notes of tequila reposado. It’s a fun low alcohol way to enjoy a good tequila that’s bubbly and refreshing: perfect for summer!...

Over the years, I have made umpteen different kinds of curries, and my whole family loves them. Maybe because everyone like spicy food. Or maybe because these are always loaded with lip-smacking flavors of all kinds. When it comes to awesome curries, it’s hard to pick a favorite. But, let me tell you, this Thai green chicken curry is all about deliciousness. It’s chicken cooked in a green, flavorful sauce with classic Thai ingredients, fish sauce, coconut milk and tons of coriander (cilantro) leaves for garnishing....

This recipe was reprinted with permission from A Common Table by Cynthia Chen McTernan. “If I ever had to choose one meal to eat for the rest of my life, bibimbap would be it.” That’s Cynthia Chen McTernan in her new book A Common Table. And we couldn’t agree more. Alex and I first had dolsot bibimbap at a Korean restaurant here in Indianapolis, in steaming hot stone bowls. The combination of savory veggies, dippy egg and crispy rice was out of this world!...

Here’s a bright blue drink that’s as beautiful as the ocean: the Blue Hawaii! This one is as classic 1950’s as it gets, from the crushed ice to the drink umbrella. Both vodka and rum feature in this sweet tart drink, along with a secret ingredient that brings in its ocean-tinted color. What ingredients do you need for the Blue Hawaiian? You’ll need to grab a few special ingredients, but it’s 100% worth it....

Before we started getting interested in Latin cooking, the word “tomatillo” would have fallen on deaf ears. A few years ago, I probably would have passed off these strange-looking little green “tomatoes” at first glance. But when I saw a huge pile this weekend at the Broad Ripple Farmer’s Market, I knew just what I wanted to try – homemade tomatillo salsa with fresh tomatillos. Granted, not everyone was quite as excited as I was about these little guys....

Love Japanese recipes? Try my beef negimaki, chicken tempura, chicken katsu, and pork katsu. I love a good rice bowl, and nothing beats my Japanese takeout favorite, Unagi don. Since finding these eel fillets in my local grocery store, I’ve been making them at home, and it’s SO easy! What is unagi? In Japanese, unagi means “eel,” and “don” means bowl. Unagi donburi, unadon, or unagi kabayaki is a popular Japanese dish composed of eel fillets marinated in a sweet and savory sauce and either grilled, fried, or baked....
