One of the most popular recipes on A Family Feast is our Chicken Chimichangas. I can totally understand why…it’s a fantastic recipe! But since we published that recipe earlier this year, we’ve had a number of readers write to us asking if we also have a recipe for Beef Chimichangas! So – to meet popular…
I’ve mentioned before, that my husband Jack worked many years ago at a cool, funky and very popular Mexican restaurant called The Edgewater Café, located about an hour north of Boston. The food was fantastic and anytime Jack cooks Mexican for us, he draws inspiration from the dishes he cooked while working there. This recipe…
Years ago, back when my husband Jack worked at a popular Boston-area Mexican restaurant, the dishes they prepared and served typically came with one of three sauces – a spicy white sauce (you can see that sauce used here and here), Salsa Verde or this delicious, red Enchilada Sauce. This enchilada sauce is (in our…
Like other parts of the eastern coastal United States, catching and eating Atlantic Blue Crabs is a fun (and delicious!) warm weather tradition.

We’ve had great luck growing butternut squash in our garden this summer and we’re enjoying the fruits of our labor with this delicious Butternut Squash Risotto!

This recipe for Marinated Mushrooms is one that my husband Jack developed many years ago. At the time, Jack was managing food service for a private club in Boston that catered to politicians, military leaders and celebrities. Typically – for those high-profile guests – the menu was hand-picked for each visiting dignitary, and special staff…
We are absolutely loving the fresh veggies at our local farmer’s market right now, and this Israeli Couscous Salad with Mediterranean Roasted Vegetables is the perfect way to enjoy in-season vegetables! A medley of asparagus, zucchini, yellow squash, eggplant, red bell pepper, and onion are roasted in the oven until caramelized, and then tossed along…
Even as food bloggers, my husband Jack and I really do try to find some balance in our diet! We often share recipes that are delicious but very decadent, and definitely not geared toward any of our readers who might be on a diet. So I’m actually very happy anytime we feature recipes like this…
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pompeian Olive Oil. All opinions are 100% my own. Today’s recipe for Hungry Grilled Romaine Salad has helped me cross an item off my culinary bucket list! I’ve seen grilled salads before – but I’ve never tried making one at home! So when Pompeian…
A luscious peach topping for ice cream – or just eaten with a spoon!
