Fennel and Arugula Salad with Pan Seared Chicken Sausage

I can’t get enough greens.  I’m a salad addict.  This is my all time favorite salad to make at home in the warmer months.  I can eat it every single evening for 3 months straight and have done so repeatedly over the past 4 years.  Recently I added shallots to my recipe which elevated the flavor to crazy new heights.  You can leave out the shallots; heck you can even leave out most of the olive oil if you’re watching your fats and it’ll still be the most refreshing summer salad to pair with grilled proteins and a chilled glass of Pinot Grigio!  

 

Egg Pillows

This breakfast is simple yet magic.  Whipped cheesy egg whites create a soft meringue-like pillow for a creamy egg yolk.  Beautiful and tasty!

Poached Egg on Yesterday’s Pizza

The markets in my neighborhood are so packed when I get home from work, that I quickly gave up on buying a piece of bread for my poached egg craving earlier this evening.  Bread, bread, how can I get my hands on some bread?  Ah ha!  The leftover pepperoni pizza in the refrigerator! The egg's delicate texture paired so well with my cheesy pizza square.  I suggest you fancy up your leftover pizza tonight with this recipe!

Orecchiette with Broccoli Rabe and Kalamata Olives

This olive oil coated pasta with bitter greens and salty olives is an easy, hearty dish that I’ve made for at least ten years after a family friend made it for us on a spring afternoon.  It’s wonderfully filling and must be enjoyed with a big glass of wine. I hope you enjoy one of my long time favorites!
