This recipe calls for a ‘specialty’ spice – garam masala. It’s a very ‘warm’ spice and is commonly used in Indian dishes. It’s a combo of cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and peppercorns. It’s not spicy…but very very flavorful.

I love this pasta. It’s so rich and creamy...and is filling and delicious...and serves a crowd! I love having this one on hand for our family, or when we have guests over for a meal. Enjoy!

White wine? Really? Shouldn’t it be red wine? I know what you’re thinking...beef plays better with red wine. Yes, it does. But it plays really nicely with white wine too. The wine acts to deepen the flavor of the liquid base and infuses into the lighter vegetables in the stew. Hope you enjoy!

A lovely, light chicken meal that starts on the stovetop and finishes in the oven. Slit the chicken lengthwise and then add pesto and shredded mozzarella into the pocket. Fold it back together and then saute-bake it to perfection. Enjoy!
