Winter

Honduran Beef

October 18, 2022

We reconstructed this delicious recipe from the ingredient list of a Bloomingfoods buffet dish. If you’re the original creator, let us know if we’re close!

Beef Stew

February 1, 2021

Manteca adds depth of flavor and richness to this classic stew, but you can sub in vegetable oil if needed. (We save bacon fat from breakfast in a little jar in the refrigerator to use for this sort of thing.) Any combination of root vegetables works in this recipe: turnips, golden beets, parsnips, carrots.

Chicken Alfredo Lasagna

January 26, 2021

We are lazy and love no-boil lasagna noodles, but you can use regular lasagna noodles if you like extra work. Or to make it even easier, shred some rotisserie chicken instead of poaching your own.

Persian Lamb Meatballs with Tomato Rice

January 14, 2021

This dish is slow food magic! Use half of the spinach in the meatballs themselves, and reserve the other half for the sauce – same goes for the cilantro. You can buy Baharat spice or make your own blend like we do.

Thai Chicken Lettuce Cups

January 3, 2021

This dish is a Toad Hall favorite. For added zing, grate a little extra ginger and add it to the sauce in step 9.

Kale, Sweet Potato and Apple Salad

December 17, 2020

The key to this recipe is actually rubbing the dressing into the kale by hand to create a tender texture. You can use a peeler to shave thin strips off of a block of romano cheese. Kale, yeah!

Marcella’s Magic Sauce with Roasted Spaghetti Squash

November 30, 2020

This rich, simple comfort dish is so easy that the only way to mess it up is to change or complicate it. San Marzano canned tomatoes are readily available in Bloomington, so make no substitutions unless it’s to swap in fresh, garden tomatoes. Based on Italian foodie and cookbook author Marcella Hazan’s classic sauce recipe, this might inspire you to ditch pasta sauce from a jar forever. We’re never going back!

Stuffed Pumpkin

October 15, 2020

This delicious baked pumpkin is easy to prepare and makes an impressive holiday dish. Use one of our Long Island Cheese Pumpkins or a small pie pumpkin for best results.

Chickpea Flatbreads with Harissa Yogurt and Kale Salad

June 17, 2020

Chickpea flatbread (“socca” in French and “torta di ceci” in Italian) is a popular Mediterranean street food snack. Serve it with dollops of savory Harissa yogurt sauce and a kale salad for a hearty vegetarian meal.

Merguez Lamb Patties with Carrot & Raisin Salad

May 8, 2020

This aromatic, Middle Eastern-inspired dish incorporates two unique spice blends: Barahat and Merguez. You can buy both pre-mixed or blend your own at home.

Chicken Paillard with Cherry & Marcona Almond Salad

April 25, 2020

This is has been one of our favorite pantry dinners during quarantine. Tart dried cherries and creamy, savory Marcona almonds (check the Murray’s cheese area at Kroger or order them online) are the perfect complements to this dish, but you can substitute any dried fruits or nuts you find in your pantry.
