Seems like winter – Chick pea and lacinato kale soup gratinée

Come se fosse l’inverno – Zuppa gratinata di ceci e cavolo nero  With the heat on, yes indeed it seems like winter.

Indeed fascinating – Lentil stew and poached egg with truffle oil

Why not? – Spaghetti squash with artichoke pesto

Perchè no? – Zucca spaghetti con pesto ai carciofini Crushing these gorgeous baby artichokes into a pesto broke my heart. I have always wanted to make artichoke pesto but never really managed to turn the artichokes into a paste. They’re so cute and delicious as hearts that really putting them [...]
