Pork in Peanut Sauce

A quick, easy, delicious pork with peanut sauce! This dish can be served over a bed of chopped romaine for a low-carb meal or noodles for the traditionalists. The oil you use makes all the difference: the peanuttier, the better. An obscure brand is usually better than a cheaper, mass-market variety.

Lamb Tagine

Lamb Tagine

When I made this Moroccan lamb tagine, I left the kitchen window open. The smell attracted several neighbors and my husband who came in and said that it smelled so good that he hoped it was coming from our house and not from someone else's! If you don't have a tagine, you can use a heavy-bottomed pot.
