My Irish mother-in-law has been asking me for a great French onion soup for the longest time. I think I have found it. Not only is it easy to make but also it has Guinness in it to suffice her Irish blood. Don't fret about giving your kids this soup because of the Guinness. The alcohol burns off and leaves just a dark depth of flavor to the soup. My son loves this soup. The cheese croutons and sweetness that the onions impart on the broth is really remarkable. Recipe by Michael Chiarello.

I think this might be our new favorite recipe. Not only is it healthy but also it tastes amazing. We have been eating the left over’s for a few days now and it only gets better. Add it to a salad for lunch and you will impress all your co-workers. The dill and sweet vinegar add a nice acidity to the creaminess that the goat cheese imparts on the vinaigrette. This would also be an amazing sauce for fish. I served this with spaghetti but rice or crunchy bread would also be perfect.
This holiday season, why not give the gift of fresh organic produce? This Christmas, our friends at Bloomfield Farms, a family-run certified organic farm outside Petaluma, are offering CSA gift certificates for you to give to family, friends, and colleagues. It's the perfect gift for a family that enjoys delicious, healthy, and locally grown food!
Bloomfield Farms is also offering an "80 for 80" holiday special—80 pounds of certified organic, dry-farmed Yukon Gold potatoes for $80. Yes, this is a large amount of potatoes, but the price is much lower than what you'll pay at a market like Whole Foods for the same thing (Bloomfield Farms supplies Whole Foods in addition to a number of other local grocery stores).
Go in with friends and neighbors and split up a bag! After all, it wouldn't be the holidays without mashed potatoes, would it?

My husband was a vegetarian when I met him eons ago. I remember when we first started dating, I didn’t have a ton of dishes in my repertoire but this dish I knew how to make really well and I made it often just to feed myself. My husband recalls that the smell of this dish cooking was too tempting to pass up and he ended up trying it. Needless to say… I won him over with it and it was the last of his vegetarianism.
Not only is this dish amazing, but also it is quick and easy to make, not to mention healthy! Serve with your favorite pasta.

I love when plain-old chicken breasts are exciting and full of flavor. Even though these are baked, they are juicy and intense with textures and flavor. I like to serve these with a side salad but if you need a carb try brown rice for a healthy and fulfilling meal in no time.

My son has been averse to kale so in my attempt to convince him of how good it is, I introduced it as a pesto. After one bowl, he was asking for seconds. The saltiness of the parmesan cheese with the toasted almonds and caramelized onions makes this leafy green nutty and sweet in this savory pesto.
For as long as I can remember, my mom made cornbread stuffing for Thanksgiving dinner. Her stuffing is sweet from the cornbread and savory from the herbs. This recipe can’t be beat. It is always so popular at our Thanksgiving dinner that I have to double the recipe to feed everyone!

In my on going search for carb free meals, which are satisfying, I tried this recipe from David Rocco. I love how light and airy the meatballs become using nonfat ricotta cheese and braising them in homemade tomato sauce. The trick to fabulous meatballs is using the freshest organic grass fed and leanest ground meat you can find. With the addition of the tangy sundried tomatoes you will never know what is missing from these meatballs. My family gobbled them up so fast that their plates were “licked” clean.
