Bacon and Leek Risotto
The latest issue of Bon Appetit arrived this weekend. Last month, I ogled over the mac and cheese on the cover, but never got around to making it. Probably due to the strange cheeses I’d need to buy and not having time to stop in… Read More

Pulled Chicken Sandwich
It was over 60 degrees today – a true miracle for all those in the Northeast. To celebrate, dinner was summer inspired. Pulled chicken sandwiches with potato salad and pickles. I’m not a huge fan of pork, so I was happy to find a substitute… Read More
