Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Roasted beet, walnut, Gorgonzola, and arugula salad

    • kbrooks on December 14, 2025

      Made this with red beets, arugula, Pt.Reyes blue cheese and pecans (husband doesn't like walnuts). Great flavor combination. Reduced olive oil to 1/4 cup and increased balsamic vinegar to 3 tablespoons. Definite repeater.

  • Oven-roasted asparagus

    • kbrooks on March 12, 2025

      Oven roasting is definitely the way to go with asparagus! Super quick and easy. I left out the parmesan because our main was a tortellini dish with parmesan. But I am sure it will be great with the parmesan as well.
