Many family dinners are planned ahead of time after pulling a delicious-sounding recipe out of a cookbook and making a detailed grocery list. But there are plenty of nights when this home cook just wings it based on what’s lurking in her freezer, has ripened on the counter or—more often than I'd like to admit—is about to spoil in the refrigerator crisper.
While I cook nearly every day, I’m constantly moving on to the next dish, usually with different ingredients to keep things interesting. I also can’t help myself when at the farmers market because everything looks so good and I’m always trying to make good on my eternal self-promise to eat more vegetables.
