Weeknight Meals
Chicken, Potato, Squash and Artichoke Hash
Parmesan cheese and tarragon add to the distinctive flavor of this comforting main course. Accompany the hash with biscuits, and conclude the evening with fresh fruit and a platter of brownies.
Ham Steak on Creamed Spinach
To serve alongside this version of a southern favorite, toss some boiled new potatoes and cherry tomatoes with melted butter and chopped parsley in a skillet. Finish with a purchased lemon meringue pie.
Salmon with Soy-Honey and Wasabi Sauces
Despite many Asian ingredients in this dish, the end result only slightly reflects their presence. Rice and asparagus make good side dishes.
Umeboshi and Rice Salad with Pickled Ginger and Sugar Snap Peas
Umeboshi, or pickled plums, are not technically plums at all, but apricots. They are mixed with rice to make a popular summer dish in Japan. We've enlivened this salad with pickled ginger and sugar snap peas.
Tomato, Edamame and Corn Sauté with Cumin and Cilantro
A colorful and delicious side dish reminiscent of succotash.
Roasted Cauliflower, Watercress, and Radicchio Salad
If you've never tried roasted cauliflower before, this dish will be a revelation.
Sole with Herb Butter
A specialty of chef Eileen Joyce. This is as deliciously simple as fresh fish gets.
