Day 4: Sunday
For lunch, I made another quick salad with produce box lettuce and mushrooms and oranges from the Farmer’s Market and some pieces of leftover steak. I made a basic vinaigrette with olive oil, sugar, white wine vinegar, salt, pepper, and a dash of dried oregano. Then I made grilled cheese sandwiches with bread [...]

Similar to a sandwich and an omelet, the samlet can take many various forms, but the [...]
One of my favorite dishes to make right now is curried tuna from Madhur Jaffrey’s Quick and Easy Indian Cooking. Here is a slightly modified version (I use ginger powder instead of fresh ginger since I hardly have it in the house and I’ve reduced the amount of chili because our mouths are tender). It’s [...]
My friend Lucy made this drink for me the other day and it shot up to the top of my favorite summer drink list. Occasionally we can find fairly inexpensive blackberries at fruit stands, local produce shops, or the Farmer’s Market. I think this would work well with frozen berries, too, although I have yet [...]
These are the faithful Haffly-household menu stand-bys. That is, when there aren’t leftovers for lunch or I’ve worked a long hard day and don’t feel like cooking “real” food (i.e., a main dish and two side dishes), this is what we often end up eating, with fresh vegetables or fruit on the side.
Quick Quesadillas
Bagel with [...]
