These stuffed poblano peppers just shot to the top of my favorite-meals-to-make list. This recipe is a perfect combination of flavors. The poblano peppers and spicy Italian sausage add the heat, while the corn brings the crunch and sweetness. The melted monterey jack cheese helps to hold the pepper together, but my favorite and most surprising addition is the tomatillo salsa. After eyeing these juicy…

White Bean Chicken Green Chili
Some of my favorite memories are coming off the slopes from a long day of skiing to a big bowl of steaming chili at the lodge. I grew up skiing in Deer Valley, Utah where the mountains are beautiful and their turkey chili is on point. This recipe puts a unique twist on my childhood favorite, while still incorporating…
Summertime Pasta
Summer may be over, but this pasta tastes delicious year round. It’s light, fresh and the flavors work well paired with just about anything. This recipe is an Ina Garten classic. She has such an amazing way of taking simple ingredients and turning them into a delicious and impressive meal. What’s great is the marinade takes only a few minutes to make and can be left out at…
Linguini and Clams
It’s officially Fall in New York! One of the reasons why I love this city is how it always keeps you on your toes. Earlier this week it looked like summer was never going to end and now, without any warning, we are dusting off our fall coats. What better way to pay homage to the end of summer and…

Swedish Meatballs & Egg Noodles
So I have to come clean. While I do still live in the big city, I no longer cook in a tiny kitchen. I know, I’m living a lie, but the name Big City, Medium Kitchen just didn’t have the same ring to it. A few weeks ago, I upgraded and moved into a new…
Summertime Pizza
This pizza is like taking an actual bite out of summer. It’s topped with the quintessential summertime vegetables, corn and zucchini, and also incorporates a mix of sweet and spicy flavors pulled from Italian sausage and tangy goat cheese. I also added an egg on top, because, why not? I wanted the vegetables to shine, so instead of making a base sauce, I…
Pasta Carbonara
What could be better than pasta carbonara, I mean it’s basically like having breakfast for dinner. Coincidentally breakfast is my favorite meal, so you could say I’m a sucker for a big bowl of bacon, egg and noodle deliciousness. My recipe uses bucatini noodles, which are thick hollow noodles perfect for soaking up the egg, parmesan and cream…
Three Cheese Eggplant Parmesan
I’ll start out by saying, I’m typically not the biggest fan of eggplant. I think most of us can agree that eggplant falls pretty low on their list of favorite vegetables. Before you start feeling bad for our eggplant friend, I decided to give it another chance in my cheesy Italian recipe, Eggplant Parmesan. When cooked correctly and paired with…
