 You may or may not think about what you’re putting in your lunchbox, or more specifically your child’s. A friend recently asked me about packing a chicken salad sandwich in her son’s lunchbox; was it safe for it to sit in that lunchbox for a few hours? I’ve written a few posts dealing with the […]  There are three types of kale, ornamental is the stuff you see taking over beds in public places for the duration of fall until spring. The two types we eat are curly; easy to spot by its tight curly edges, and dinosaur kale also know as Lacinato or Tuscan kale, which has dark green bumpy leaves. […]
 Can you really have too many good meatball recipes? I don’t think so, and that’s why I decided to try something new; quinoa meatballs. The quinoa replaced the breadcrumbs, not the meat. This exchange makes these meatballs suitable for gluten-free, as well as your paleo friends. I made them with a simple tomato sauce and […]  These are the stuffed chicken thighs I made last night.
