This is my favourite creamy pasta dish!

Heat the oil to 375 degrees. While the oil is heating up, peel the green plantains and then cut them into 3/4 inch slices. Fry the slices in the hot oil for 3 minutes.

Nothing says 1974 and freshman year in high school to me like this Tuna Noodle Casserole. Noodles, cream of mushroom soup, tuna right outta the can, potato chips and grated cheese. Even some peas to make it “healthy”. Such comfort!

For the tuna, heat a griddle pan until smoking hot, rub the tuna steak with olive oil and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Griddle for 2-3 minutes on each side and then squeeze over the lemon juice at the end of cooking.

Serve this Tuscany-inspired salmon dish atop warm buttered delicate orzo, sprinkle some fresh parmesan. Decoratively garnish w/ a sprig of fresh rosemary. Perfection!

Ustipke (pronounced “ushteepke”) is a Croatian recipe I learned from a friend. It’s my favourite thing to make for breakfast! Serve with a mixture of cottage cheese, feta cheese, sliced cucumbers, radishes, green onion and bell pepper. Also good with jam.

Claudron Foods make an excellent roasted carrot and parsnip pate that I thought I’d reproduce, only instead of real cream cheese I’ve used a vegan substitute. You’re welcome to use cream cheese if you prefer, but I recommend you use one with herbs.
