And while that pre-packaged Costo-sized platter is all too easy to grab when you're crunched for time, it's actually not that hard to make a showstopping one yourself. We repurposed one of those rustic-chic wooden crates that you find at your local home store (we got ours at Michael's) into a tray for crudités. (Got one in your attic?

Tomato Basil Pizza The other day, I was looking at the overload of tomatoes that I bought as the season was winding down as the end of summer nears. But I realized that I was being gradually shoved out of my small kitchen by them, so I oven-roasted the louts with garlic and herbs to reclaim a few precious inches back of kitchen counter space. Yet when they were finished, I looked in my refrigerator, and there wasn’t any room in there either. So I was left holding a bowl of roasted tomatoes that needed to get used up. Coincidentally, I also had a round of yeasted dough in my refrigerator from a batch of recipe testing that hadn’t found its meaning as something else yet—as experimental leftovers are want to do. So I took it out, which made room for the tomatoes – but then I realized that was defeating the purpose, so I decide to use both of them. I’ve oven-roasted plenty of tomatoes in my lifetime, especially when I need to pull and extract as much flavor as I can from less-than-exemplary specimens. Pesto

Tomato Pesto Tarts with Optional Prosciutto - Kitchen Treaty This is the time of year when I start obsessing over red and green foods. After all, you can’t serve yellow and brown for Christmas!

Balsamic Pot Roast (in the Crock Pot) A couple of months ago I was reading a Taste Of Home magazine while in the waiting room at my son's orthodontics appointment, and I came across a recipe for Balsamic Braised Pot Roast. I made a mental note of it and filed it away in my brain for later use. This week, as I was struggling for dinner ideas, that recipe popped into my head. Balsamic Pot Roast3 lbs beef chuck roast, boneless Garlic salt & pepper seasoning2 tbsp olive oil1 onion, sliced2 sprigs of fresh rosemary2 bay leaves2 fresh sage leaves (or a sprinkle of powdered sage)2 cloves garlic, chopped1 cup red wine1/3 cup GOOD balsamic vinegar1, 14.5oz can beef broth 3 tbsp corn starchSalt & PepperBaby carrots, about a bag2 medium potatoes, cut into mouth sized pieces While I prefer to cook my pot roast in a crock pot, I do think it's essential to sear the meat first. *If you want to shorten the cook time for this, cook it on high for 6-7 hours.

Chicken Tamale Pie Today’s lesson is on healing foods. You might be thinking of brightly colored veggies and lean proteins, and I can dig that . Most of the time. But today I’m thinking of creamy corn bread, spicy enchilada sauce, seasoned chicken, and melted cheese baked into a pie dish. I’ve had a rough go of it the last few days. The Pistachios. Let me tell you something about myself. So in an effort not to eat the whole bag of pistachios in between lunch and dinner, I’ve been spending my evenings making one bazillion types of pistachio baked goods. No pistachios were thrown at the kitchen wall. Just when I was about to throw in the towel on baking for the rest of my life, Bjork asked for this tamale pie.
