My wall calendar is a garden calendar. It tells me what produce is in season.. and offers me a recipe to use with that product. October is Chard. The recipe is for a Chard Frittata. I don’t have chard.. but I do have spinach. Luckily Frittatas are very easy to modify. The original called for butter, mushrooms and chard. I…

Somewhat Hearty :) Lentil Stew
About a month ago I found a copy of the Clean Eating magazine at a grocery store. Curious, I picked it up. It was the September/October issue and I LOVED the range of pasta sauce recipes it had. Since then I’ve made a version of the Mussel Stew.. and finally, last night I made a version of their “Hearty Lentil…

Of course that totally meant that at 3 o’clock I was starving for an afternoon snack. Now in the bad-old-days this would have meant a trip to…
