Love it. I also love to serve just-cooked fingerling potatoes, halved lengthwise, as well as these tiny little jewel-colored carrots we get at our farmers' market (trimmed, blanched, and halved lengthwise, if large).

Nice to see a well-deserved shout-out to La Laiterie and New Rivers, truly among the best of the best in a city filled with great dining destinations.

Thanks, Blake! High praise coming from you, and I'm so glad you liked this.

Great post. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

There's a similar recipe I found in a magazine a while back from Rick Bayless for tacos stuffed with sauteed greens, and it has become a real favorite in our household. It's a nice change of pace, and really does make for a filling meal. This version looks wonderful.

We've done a bit of this already, but this year I am determined to can whole tomatoes, sauce and puree, plus tomato and tomatillo salsas, fire-roasted peppers of all types, pickles, saurkraut, and my husband's Bourbon-soaked cherries. We cure and freeze things as well, but we're short of space in the fridge and freezer!

...aaaaand I apparently screwed up my links. Whoops.

My husband prepared this last night (using all butter and omitting the sugar) and it was FANTASTIC. It was the first pastry dough recipe we've made with our new food processor, and I doubt we'll test any others (though he does want to experiment with combining butter and home-rendered lard).

I have a rotation because I get bored easily. :)

+one egg, cheddar and tomato on toasted multigrain bread
+Greek yogurt with walnuts and honey
+cottage cheese or a hard boiled egg and a glass of vegetable juice (I prefer Knudsen Very Veggie, but V8 will do in a pinch)
+ricotta from Saxelby's with apricots, pine nuts and a drizzle of balsamic

I love oatmeal but I generally only eat it during the cooler months of the year. When I do I dress it up with blueberries and almonds, or butter and sea salt, or a few dashes of hot sauce, or a little grated sharp cheese.

I drink iced Earl Grey in the summer, hot tea the rest of the year. I'll occasionally have coffee with milk instead. And I drink a ton of water.

Geez, articles like this make me really happy I'm not dating anymore. :D

The night I met my husband (at the wedding of a mutual friend), I ate steak. I ate steak frites on our first date (not to impress him, but because it was what I wanted) and I have since shared and enjoyed countless steaks, burgers, pork and veal chops with him. We do tend to eat lighter dinners during the week (at least one meatless and seafood 2-3 times a week), but we look forward to indulging on the weekends.

Ed, I definitely think there's a place in a healthy diet for red meat (and if you go with grass-fed, you get the benefit of heart-healthy omega-3s). Hopefully your wife will come around. :)

Like klg19, raw tomatoes and peas were the two things I hated most as a kid - and which I can't get enough of now! Quality is everything, isn't it?

Very nice!
