Korean Pork & Kimchi Sliders
Korean Pork & Kimchi Sliders. Where to begin? To me sliders represent exactly the way I want to eat. A couple bites of delicious and I’m ready to move on to the next dish. Small plates, tapas, appetizers to share all suit me just fine. And for my friends and family, you know if we have a meal together, I’m going to want a bite of whatever you’re having. Thank you for always sharing.

Farmers Market Unstuffed Cabbage Recipe
There are some recipes (curry, masalas, unstuffed cabbage rolls) that are a challenge to picture. They don’t have the color pop to match their undeniable flavor explosion. This Farmers Market Unstuffed Cabbage Recipe falls squarely into this category.

Caprese Panzanella {with Shrimp}
I scored these gorgeous tomatoes at the market this week, aren’t the colors amazing! Each year when tomato season hits, we run down the list of our favorite tomato recipes. Almost in unison, I heard Caprese Salad and Bread Salad. Just think what gorgeous children those two classics will make. That’s when the Caprese Panzanella love child was born.

Thai Seafood Chowder
Mussels simmered in white wine, garlic and butter, in my opinion, rank right up there with Scallops Wrapped in Bacon. So why would I mess with an absolutely delicious recipe? Rhetorical. Because Thai Seafood Chowder not only sounds like winning, but the addition of coconut milk, red curry paste and Serrano peppers took comfort to a new level.

Rosemary Ham & Swiss Savory Bread Pudding
My kid. I love her completely. Her hugs. Listening skills. Eye contact. Thirst for knowledge. Hugs. Witt. Sense of adventure. Genuine interest in what you’re saying. Having said that, there is an I want this now and my listening skills have gone out the window at this moment, because I want this now quality about her that I admire. Go get it girl. Which is exactly what she did last week. I’ll tell you more about that, after I introduce our newest savory dish. I made a bit of heaven. Rosemary Ham & Swiss Savory Bread Pudding…inspired by a Sunday’s with Shelby outing (which on occasion happens on a Saturday).

Steamed Veggie Ramen Broth Bowl {with Fried Egg}
I enjoyed a lovely lunch date with Shelby and her roommate Clare. It was a post-birthday (for Shelby), pre-move in to a new cool place (for Shelby & Clare)…kind of celebration. Shelby chose a VERY popular restaurant called Buttermilk Kitchen. However, our hunger level and their wait time didn’t mesh so well. So we bailed and opted for Noodles. This recipe post is a recreation of the fresh & delicious Steamed Veggie Ramen Broth Bowl {with Fried Egg} I ordered.

Seared Ahi Tuna with Thai Risotto
I’m not sure how it happened. Ahi Tuna on sale for $6.99 a pound. Text message…go there. Do not pass go, do not collect $200 dollars…just bring home Tuna. I have to say, I was a bit skeptical. This was not Sushi grade tuna, for which we will pay up for. But it was fresh and thick and begging for a swim in marinade. Seared Ahi Tuna {with Thai Risotto}.
