Roasted Cauliflower and Caramelized Onion Tart (Gluten-Free)
This is ANOTHER excellent recipe from Smitten Kitchen. I made a gluten-free version for New Year’s Day and it was well loved and totally devoured. I was attracted to this recipe because I am addicted to caramelized onions…
Apple Cider Brined Chicken with Star Anise and Cinnamon
I am always looking for tasty, healthy dishes to make for my husband’s family during the holidays. They are very conscious of their fat and cholesterol intake and as a result they are very fit and healthy people.
