Greek Roasted Chicken-Potato with Cherry Tomatoes, Black Olives and Feta Cheese
I relish creating dishes that I find in my many cookbooks, using techniques and ingredients I’ve gathered there, plus my own hunches to cook a new dish.

Turkey Tetrazzini: A Tasty Treat with Thanksgiving Leftovers
From my childhood, with leftover turkey, I remember our housekeeper, Ann, serving an old-fashioned dish, common at the time – turkey-a-la-king. Sometimes she would use chicken.
