Summer Vegetable Soup with Hominy & Lime

The majority of the flavor and texture in this soup comes from a can in your pantry.

Vinegar-Braised Chicken Wings with Zucchini and Herbs

Serve alongside your buttered carbohydrate of choice.

Braised Chicken Piccata

“If you were a food, what would you be?” I resent the question, but the answer would almost certainly be chicken piccata.

Crispy Buttermilk Chicken

Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are far and away the easiest and best thing to use here.

Pasta e Ceci Salad

Olives and parsley are great here, but in the spirit of this sort of fridge-clean-out, do-less-with-more, accidentally fabulous recipe, I kept them optional.

Clam Pasta with Chorizo and Walnuts

Even at the most suspect red-sauce Italian restaurant, I’ll always order the linguine alle vongole, because like pizza, even at its worst, linguine with clams is still pretty great.

Sour Cream Flatbread

There’s no kneading involved (just mixing), and the only tools you need are a bowl, a spoon, and your hands.

Buttered Zucchini Omelette

Tip this little creation onto a plate and dab a little butter on top if you have extra.

Grilled Tomatillo Salsa

Grill the vegetables, turning occasionally, until they turn a nice army green and get as charred as the grill will allow

Charred Broccoli Salad with Garlic and Basil

When you’re ready to serve, add the basil and toss again. If you like, add cheese (though it doesn’t need it, it does give it a sort of nice antipasto vibe to the whole thing).

Great Chicken Parmesan

This chicken parmesan is on a sheet pan, but I’m not calling it Sheet Pan Chicken Parmesan because I don’t believe that there’s any other way one should make Chicken Parmesan– feels redundant.

Fish Cakes with Beans and Greens

I wish I took as good care of myself as I do my baby, where I’m obsessed with making sure he’s getting enough micronutrients like protein, fiber and omega-3’s. I’m not a nutritionist, but I know enough to know this recipe has all of the aforementioned things.
