Issue Nº 03 — Summer Table
A small kitchen notebook of seasonal stews, rustic bakes, and the weeknight things worth making twice. No long backstories — just recipes that work.
The current issue
A skillet full of late-summer produce — sweet peaches, jammy tomatoes, and blistered peppers — roasted beneath crispy chicken thighs until everything collapses into a glossy, savory-sweet pan sauce.

Farfalle tossed in a creamy cajun sauce with chicken, Polish sausage, and the holy trinity of onion, celery and bell pepper. A weeknight one-skillet pasta.

My favorite breakfast muffin recipe. You can make it with turkey bacon instead and use low-fat yogurt and milk to make it 'leaner' but equally delicious.

I don't know about you, but I love scones! Few things in life are more pleasant than a quiet morning, coffee, and your favorite scone. Scones are usually made with heavy whipping cream — this recipe uses buttermilk instead. Enjoy!

A series
Dumplings are universal. Many cuisines have their own version of these balls of dough — savory or sweet, steamed, boiled, or pan-fried. Let your taste buds take you around the world, one dumpling at a time.

About the kitchen
I'm a registered dietitian, but this page is less about nutrition and more about flavor — the taste, the memory, and the dishes worth repeating. There are no macros or meal plans here, just the places a dish comes from (Polish stews from my grandmother, Nepali momos, Georgian khinkali) and the plain, tested weeknight meals I actually make. Pull up a chair.
