Anyways, we ran out of soup after about ten minutes of serving. So during church I had a sudden inspiration (um, Pastor, if you're reading this, that was a typo. Anways, I burst out of church and ran up to my friend screaming, "Hey guess what!! Yeah. I mean it would be like getting paid to have fun. Okay.

Turkey Cutlets with Marsala Recipe
A classic, both in Elizabeth David’s day as well as today, turkey marsala isn’t at all outdated, just overlooked. It just tends to be overlooked, despite a satiating richness that belies its simplicity. It takes just 15 minutes to pull together and can easily be committed to memory—nifty traits that, let’s face it, ought never go out of style. As if that weren’t sufficient to woo you, the flavors are amenable to any season. You’ll find two approaches to this same recipe below.

Broccolini Salad Recipe
I think we've discussed this before. My friend Malinda has a real knack for making salads. Remember the shaved fennel beauty in Super Natural Every Day? That was hers. We were at her house for dinner the other night and she made a broccolini salad I parked just to the right of my wine glass. It was one of those relatively simple preparations that reminded me of how good certain things are. We chatted in the kitchen before dinner about dressing for the salad (and broccoli/broccolini in general). So I kept thinking about it. I made a meal of this by introducing a hard boiled egg - on the side. Fill a big pot with water and bring to a boil. Combine the scallions, serrano pepper, olive oil, and a couple pinches of salt in a small saucepan. To assemble the salad, just before serving, place the broccolini and croutons in a large serving bowl. Use the leftover oil (refrigerate) to cook eggs, drizzled over potatoes, drizzled into soup, etc. Serves 4 - 6. Prep time: 10 min - Cook time: 10 min
