Kale, Onion and Cheddar Frittata Recipe

The frittata did not raise as much up as thought it might, so it was a bit dense. Still a nice combination and a good way to use kale.

Pasta With Beans and Greens Recipe

So the mashed beans with stock created a nice “sauce” that held to the rigatoni quite well. Flavorful, earthy with a nice background of savory flavor (thanks anchovies!).

Ramp and Sausage Risotto

I make this every year as a sign of that transition into spring. It is what I crave the most when the weather starts to turn from cold to warm. Mostly cause you can’t get ramps all the time. Early on in the pandemic (after worrying about family friends, etc etc), I was pretty sure I wouldn’t get ramps this year. Fortunately, opportunity has presented it self and once again, I have a good supply of ramps.

Spaghetti with Green Garlic Recipe

Very simple, It came together pretty well and had a nice flavor to it.

Taco Salad!

Good things.

Working from home does give me the opportunity to use leftovers in such a fashion to make a new thing out of it. I have started enjoying this part of my day as it is something I do just for me. I used the leftover smoked sausages to make sandwiches, with the pickles and bbq sauce from the Cheese Bar.
