I have been adding recipes for a while to a new cookbook so I could find them when I wanted to cook them. In the electronic age, a digital version seems to make more sense, since I can add, amend, advise, adjust, delete, and reconsider as often as I want to and you can access them if and when you please. I've included the recipes from my original cookbook which many of you have. I'm also going to be adding pictures as I retest many of these recipes. They aren't the latest thing or nouvelle cuisine. They're comfort food, good memories, treasured family recipes, and occasional treats as well as many healthier recipes I've grown to like in recent years. I encourage you to add comments, pictures, and favorite recipes to make this a real family cooking spot. It's the next best thing to sharing a meal.

Arugula Pesto

3 c arugula 
1 c flat leaf parsley
1/2 c cashews 
1 clove garlic
3 T Meyer lemon juice
1/4 c hard cheese 
1/2 c olive oil

Combine garlic and cashews in a food processor, add arugula, parsley and lemon juice. Puree while adding the olive oil to form a paste, then add the cheese and blend well. Use pesto with pasta dishes, pizza, add to cream cheese, dress up new potatoes, spread on garlic bread, add to steamed veggies, fantastic on grilled fish!
