White Bean & Chicken Chili
As I write this I have a newborn lying on my chest. Our second daughter, Juniper Louise, was born right before the New Year. She is such a miracle. A beautiful, sweet, exhausting miracle. My mom flew in last week to help out, and she has been absolutely spoiling us with her cooking, cleaning and errand-running.…

Sweet Potato Soup
I would easily name soup one of my favorite foods. Nearly every week I throw together a big pot of soup, which we eat with buttery grilled cheeses, toasted crostini topped with clean-out-the-fridge fixings, or slabs of cornbread. Usually the soup is vegetable-based and pureed until silky, and it’s one of the only failsafe methods I have of getting vegetables into Ella.…

I knew I had to come up with something for dinner, but the fridge was nearly empty, and I was tired and feeling indifferent—takeout was even too much to bother with. …

Quick Vegetable Potage with Cheddar Crisps
I studied in the south of France during college, and like so many cooks before me, it’s where I discovered my passion for food. As the weather cooled, my host mom (mère Michelle) would serve a steaming bowl of potage to start each meal. It was a thick soup of pureed vegetables—whatever she picked up from the market that day—with root vegetables as the base. …

Indian Spiced Chickpea Stew
This one-dish stew is my go-to dinner whenever anybody in the family starts to get sick. It’s warming, a bit spicy and has serious healing powers (well, at least I think so!). Best of all, it has a cooked-all-day taste, but it can be made in just over a half hour. …
