making dinner (and lunch) from leftovers, part the first: a tuna salad that beckons
My son doesn’t care for artichokes. I love them. They’re in season now, and I had one in the fridge, so I decided today is the day I’m going to eat that artichoke. I trimmed it, gave it a lemon … Continue reading

pasta with chickpeas and tomato sauce, a festival of leftovers

not quite jambalaya
I bought some house-made smoked andouille sausage from the butcher last week. I think I’ve only eaten andouille sausage once or twice, probably in a jambalaya which I imagine I must have tasted off my husband’s plate. It’s not a … Continue reading

vegan tea-smoked tofu and almond stir fry
