My darling
+Steven Larizza told me over lunch today "I have a tip for your cooking. Stop using ingredients that I don't recognize". After I stopped laughing and being momentarily offended, I started considering his suggestion. My husband's palate isn't exactly grandiose and maybe he had a point with his suggestion. All I really want is to make cooking at home the new normal instead of eating out several times a week. So, tonight I decided to make a stew. A normal meat and vegetable stew that is loaded with amazing but recognizable ingredients. This way we both get what we want and need. It's flipping 16 degrees outside and stew sounded amazing when I began brainstorming about what to make for dinner. I get lots of yummy vegetables and mega protein while Steven gets a tasty home cooked meal with stuff he can name. Team Larizza for the win!
