Sautèing asparagus with bacon (pancetta) and leeks is an excellent way to cook asparagus and keep it perfectly tender-crisp and finished with pine nuts and aromatic garlic. Lemon and orange zest make this side a sophisticated, delicious variety of textures and flavors.

I make this recipe and double it and make bigger cookies, also I substitute Chocolate chips for nuts and raisins because I am allergic to nuts and my kids hated raisins.

It's the season of Swiss chard and kale. We got lots of these fresh leafy greens from our CSA farm, and I was trying to come out an idea to use them up, surfing the internet, found a recipe in New York Times, it's a chard and feta phyllo tart. Definitely got the inspiration, I used both chard and kale, instead of feta, I used cheddar; and I sauteed some fresh mushrooms and added some toasted pine nuts, which worked very well. Also, I used a pie plate instead of a tart pan, and it was a great success, absolutely flavorful and delicious. The phyllo crust came out flaky and crispy. Have definitely become one of my signature recipes :)

Nothing is quicker and easier than a Chinese stir-fry, agreed?! This dish took me less than half an hour to make, and it tasted wonderfully delicious. Served it over a bed of rice, and our dinner was served with tons of goodness and yumminess.
