Garlic Mustard Pesto

Garlic mustard grows wild and comes up each spring in abundance. It is one of the first green plants to dot the roadside. It grows round, scallop-edged leaves on a tall stem.

Omelets

A wonderful omelet made on top of your own stove: it’s the simplest (and tastiest) fast food there is. Omelets are a great way to clean out your leftovers. And if you’re new to cooking, they’re the perfect introduction to creativity in the kitchen. Omelets are a blank canvas just waiting for you to test out what you like and what you don't like.

Oat Scones

Perfectly decadent for Sunday mornings, this basic scone recipe can carry a variety of flavors. These are best right out of the oven. And personally, I find it awfully hard to eat just one. My four favorite variations are below.

Several years ago, I traveled to Ireland for a women's retreat. One of the highlights? Several visits to Avoca, a fast-casual restaurant with some of the best deli-inspired meals I’ve ever tasted. The restaurants serves fresh soups, made daily. Naturally I had to order one. It was so incredible, I continued to order soup for every subsequent visit.
