Tomatoes Aplenty

With all the spare tomatoes we have in our house lately (no implication of gardening skills there, but rather, a good samaritan who regularly drops grocery bags of his harvest off on our doorstep), I have taken to making snacks like this on the weekends. It's amazing what you can do with bread, onions, tomatoes, and olive oil. I think there are a few other things in there two, but this is a great whatever-you-have-in-the-refrigerator type recipe. Broil for 5 minutes - presto!

 

Indian Night!

As many of you know, I have a huge soft spot for Indian cuisine, and last month I endeavored to bring it to my kitchen! With a lot of help from friends and family, we put together a great combination of dishes including samosas, vegetarian curry, black dal makhani, naan (from scratch!), mango lassis, and the Indian-inspired chicken tikka masala. It was a fine feast - thanks to everyone who contributed recipes, ideas, and man-power to the project!
