TWO INGREDIENT PUMPKIN MUFFINS

Delectably moist pumpkin muffins made with only two ingredients? YES! So easy, you’ll make them again and again.

Spiced Pear Chutney

This is a classic simmered chutney, combining fresh ripe pears and dried fruit along with sugar, vinegar, and spices. A western-style pickle like this spiced pear chutney is an often chunky and highly spiced preserve that pairs well with roasted meats or grilled meats, charcuterie or cheese boards, sandwiches, or rice and curry dishes.

Apple Sharlotka Muffins

A delicious muffin twist to the traditional Russian fall apple cake, Sharlotka!

Smoked Trout, Potato, and Goat Cheese Quiche

This rich and delicious Scandinavian-inspired quiche pairs smoked trout or salmon with thin slices of golden potato, tangy goat cheese, and fresh dill for an inspired brunch or light dinner recipe.

Winter Tabbouleh Salad

This winter tabbouleh salad is a seasonally-appropriate adaptation of this Mediterranean traditional staple dish. I make this in the fall and winter when the usual produce ingredients aren't available (yeah, you can buy them, but they aren't local or very good). Instead of the tomatoes and cucumbers, we use crunchy cabbage and radishes, along with generous amounts of parsley, lemon, and bulghur wheat. It's a brightly-flavored vegan side dish or light lunch that does not taste like "health food"... though it is packed with vitamins and fiber!  This recipe makes a big batch, so if you aren't feeding a crowd, or making your lunches for the week, you can scale it back or cut it in half- the procedure is the same.
