Now that things have opened back up here in the States, people are traveling again. People are visiting relatives on coasts they haven’t been to in over a year. They’re getting on planes and going to the Bahamas, Hawaii or Mexico. Places that are all about escape, which after the last year, is something we… Continue reading Peach Blueberry Crumble

Grilled Chicken Fattoush Salad
Summer’s in full swing and that means it’s time to pull the cover off your grill and get to grilling. While hot dogs and hamburgers are the easy choice, nothing is better right off the grill than chicken, or seafood or even a nice T-bone steak. But you don’t have to stick with proteins. You… Continue reading Grilled Chicken Fattoush Salad
Peach Crumble Bars
Last week I did a savory peach recipe, so this week I’m doing a sweet peach recipe. While I love peaches in savory recipes, my favorite is without question dessert. There’s just nothing better than a warm slice of peach pie with a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream melting down the side. But who… Continue reading Peach Crumble Bars
Pork Chops with Peach-Plum Compote
Since we’re right at the beginning of peach season, it’s all about peaches for me. Where I used to buy pounds and pounds of citrus, I’m now buying pounds and pounds of peaches, plums, pluots and apricots. In other words, I’m buying as much stone fruit as I can get my hands on. And now… Continue reading Pork Chops with Peach-Plum Compote
4th of July Stuffed Strawberries
Block parties are back, baby! Okay, let me backtrack a bit. For over a decade, my street has been having a block party every year on the 4th of July. What started as a small get together with just a few neighbors has turned into a serious party with a DJ, a chili cookoff and… Continue reading 4th of July Stuffed Strawberries
Air Mail Cocktail
Now that the world is opening up again, all of us are booking vacations! I mean after being stuck in your house/town for the past 15 months don’t you want to get away? I know I do! It doesn’t matter whether you’re driving or flying, you’ll probably be sending off a post card or two,… Continue reading Air Mail Cocktail
Bruschetta Chicken
You all know how much I love the spring and summer produce. I can’t wait for those amazing stone fruits to make an appearance. Then from April through at least September I cook with them constantly. While I can’t get enough of all those peaches and plums, they’re not the only produce I look forward… Continue reading Bruschetta Chicken
Mint Blackberry Lemonade
I know I usually do cocktails on Fridays, but this week I wanted to bring you a refreshing beverage that’s alcohol-free! I know, you’re probably wondering what’s wrong with me? Nothing! It’s summer and while I’ll never pass up a fizzy cocktail, a non-alcoholic drink can be just as refreshing and won’t leave you feeling… Continue reading Mint Blackberry Lemonade
Citrus Rhubarb Olive Oil Bundt Cake
I know we’re getting into stone fruit season, but you can still find rhubarb and plenty of citrus at the local farmers markets. Yesterday I actually spotted a bushel of Meyer Lemons! Meyers! They’re those sweeter lemons that are great for lemon bars, lemon tarts… pretty much anything with lemon. So, I grabbed a bunch,… Continue reading Citrus Rhubarb Olive Oil Bundt Cake
Green Isaac’s Special
Have you noticed how every day seems to be a holiday these days? Some, like Christmas and Veteran’s Day, are definitely noteworthy while others, like No Diet Day and Dictionary Day (yes, these are real holidays) are some of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard of. But in the midst of all these weird (holi)days… Continue reading Green Isaac’s Special
Ahi Poke
The past few months I’ve been trying to make our dinners a little healthier. While I’ve been making meals from scratch forever, you need to do more than just copy a recipe. The ingredients you use are also very important. As you all know, I try to get the freshest ingredients from produce to proteins.… Continue reading Ahi Poke
