Ratatouille has become a favorite at home, surprisingly much liked by my meat-loving, nearly adult son! The flavors of this Provencal vegetable stew are outstanding; it tastes like summer, fresh and vibrant. That’s one reason he loves it!

When I came across a recipe from Mark Bittman for sneaky, stealthy Creamy Cauliflower Mac & Cheese with a head of cauliflower hidden in the sauce, I took note.

We’ve had a new addition to the family – last week I was able to visit my lil sis, her son and his wife, and a brand new baby grand-nephew. It was truly a week of excesses, traveling, graduations, Memorial Day.

How about you guys? Are you rocking breakfast for dinner? Think about Frittatas. They’re easier than an omelette, faster (and less calorie ridden) than a quiche and made in one pan. Add a little fruit or small salad on the side and you’ve got yourself breakfast, dinner or lunch.

I’m always excited when I see a major food magazine put out a simple recipe using wholesome ingredients like this White Bean Ragout with Garlic Toasts. The world of cooking is changing, especially as far as major food magazines are concerned. More and more I’m seeing magazines like Bon Appetit paying more attention and recognizing simple flavors and everyday ingredients that stand on their own and have their own integrity.
