It can be a challenge cooking for two. When I made a big batch of Baked Garden Vegetable Stack the other day, I had a lot of tender vegetables left over. I turned them into creamy soup in 30 minutes...

Fresh from the forest:: Penne with Mushrooms
Kelly Larson of Bagley, Minn., calls herself a fanatic forager of fungal fruits. She’s not kidding. When we met at the third annual Fall Mushroom Camp recently put on by White Earth Tribal & Community College (WETCC ) Extension Service, Larson was shocked.

Pie it forward: Grandson keeps Green Tomato Pie tradition alive
Just as the green tomatoes on the plant I’d been pampering all summer began to show a slight tinge of orange, the air turned nippy. An overnight frost was predicted. Two nights in a row, I wrapped the plant in old beach towels, hoping the ripening fruit would survive the quick blast of freezing temperatures. The leaves look a little droopy, but the plant survived.

Have some cake, honey
A beekeeper friend of mine invited me to watch as he introduced a wooden box of at least 30,000 bees and one queen to their new home – a hive positioned on a grassy space near basswood trees across the road from his house.

Try some Un-Stuffed Peppers
This time of year, the fragrance of sweet peppers and paprika swirl through my kitchen. It’s a Hungarian tradition in my family – some of the first ripe, green bell peppers picked from the garden are stuffed with ground meat, onions, rice and lots of paprika.

Pepper and Herbs Skillet Flatbread is flat-out fabulous
I watched with anticipation as the hostess of an al fresco dinner party I was attending used a pizza cutter to slice a dark, thin round of baked dough into small squares. She told me it was called farinata. Made with chickpea flour, also known as garbanzo bean flour, the thin cake is popular in the Liguria region of Italy. There it is baked in a wood-burning oven and eaten as a snack.

It's time to start thinking about school lunches
While I was waiting in line at the checkout in the grocery store the other day, I couldn’t help overhearing a conversation between two young mothers.
“Are you guys ready for school?”

Watermelon soup? That's cool.
Cooks all over the United States have been challenged for more than a month with sweltering heat. A reader in Texas asked me if I could publish a recipe for something that wouldn’t melt. Someone in North Carolina living without air conditioning didn’t want to turn on his stove or his oven. He was cooking outside on two black rocks heated by the sun. Even though my house is air-conditioned, the grill on my deck is getting a workout.

Baked Zucchini Fries are a tasty, healthful substitute for French fries
I’ve always wanted to host a garden party this time of year when vegetable plots are bountiful and flower beds are in full bloom, showing off their amazing beauty. But the same problem always arises – I have no gardens worthy of putting on display.

Orzo Skillet Dinner is an easy and quick dish
I’ve gained a renewed appreciation for quick suppers from a skillet. As a young mother, that sometimes meant the meal began in a box packaged with everything needed except the meat. These days, I pay much closer attention to every single ingredient that goes into the meals I prepare. I prefer to use fresh ingredients and add my own seasonings.

Almond Peach Cakes with Raspberry-Basil Sauce
I had been working on Almond Peach Cakes for a week. I was sure the recipe was perfect when I mixed up my last batch. I spooned the sweet, peachy batter into a generously-buttered muffin tin. I slid the pan into the oven and closed the door. I was guessing when I set the timer for 30 minutes.

Eat your (beet) greens
I came home from the farmers market the other day with a large round loaf of sourdough bread, tiny potatoes, a few onions and a bulb of fresh garlic. Oh, and a big bag of beet greens.

Stuffed Cherries in Chocolate just might become a new favorite
Sweet and juicy cherries are one of my favorite summertime flavors. And chocolate has been an obsession of mine for years. A piece of good quality dark chocolate pushed to the roof of my mouth, slowly melting into a buttery mass of rich cocoa flavor, elicits moans of pleasure from my throat.

In a pickle for dinner? How about a Dilled Chicken Avocado Melt?
Many summers ago, while living in our first house on an all-American kind of street, it was not uncommon for neighbors to gather for an evening meal. Children would play as their dads took charge of a grill filled with chubby bratwurst and polish sausage. Moms would arrange paper plates and plastic forks, salads, baked beans and chips on picnic tables, slice some buns, then relax on folding lawn chairs as they sipped a cool beverage and chatted.

Slice 'em , bake 'em and eat 'em
It was one of those rare times in my days as a young mother when my infant son was finally taking one of his quick catnaps at the same time his big brother, the kindergartener, was playing by himself, pretending to be a sportscaster announcing a basketball game. This atypical occurrence gave me a little time to bake.

The good life: Falafel one of many family-friendly recipes in new cookbook
Over the last several years I’ve become much more interested in knowing how and where the food I cook and serve is grown and who was involved in its production. I feel happy when I know I am contributing to a healthier life for my family and myself. And I feel a responsibility to contribute to a more sustainable way of living on this planet.
