Brunswick Stew {Eat Out of the Fridge/Pantry}
Brunswick Stew. It began yesterday morning when we pulled a hunk of Boston Butt Pork Roast from the freezer and put it straight into the crock pot. Without a plan. As we bounced ideas around for something ‘different’ we could do with pulled pork…it came to me. Let’s make Brunswick Stew.

Braised Rack of Lamb

Italian Bean Soup with Mini-Meatballs {Pasta e fagioli inspired}
Italian Bean Soup with Mini-Meatballs. I intentionally did not call this a recipe for Pasta e fagioli, although it was clearly my inspiration.

When I did my standard recipe research I had a hard time avoiding the bazillion copycat recipes for Olive Garden’s Pasta e fagioli. We may be the only family I know who has not had a bowl of Olive Garden’s Pasta e fagioli. I’m sure it’s delicious but I chose not to compete with the masses.
