Ciopiiiiiiiiiiino. That’s how we have to pronounce it around here. Preferably in an accent similar to that of Mario and Luigi. Because it’s fun. And I can’t really do any other kind of “Italian” accent. Although I admit I have no idea how to make “chunky Cioppino” sound even vaguely Italian. This is the dish […]
Calamari Kale & Kalamata Olive Salad
Calamari, kale and Kalamata. Clearly, I’m a sucker for alliteration in recipe titles. For years, I didn’t actually realize that “calamari” on the menu referred to the squid beneath the batter in the ubiquitous fried calamari dishes I loved so much.

Me and one pot meals are buddies. Sometimes multitasking makes me scared. Actually, most of the time multitasking makes me scared. But that’s ok, because that’s when I whip out a no-panic-inducing meal in a pan and feel suitably smug. You can feel smug too! You might have noticed the slight seafood obsession I have […]
