Pan Seared Sea-bass with Tomatoes and Chickpeas

I love a recipe that’s simple and delicious that I can make all in the same pan. A heavy bottom nonstick skillet like cast iron is ideal. If the olive oil gets too dark after you cook the fish you can always change it to cook the tomatoes and chickpeas. Personally I love the seared…

Freshly baked plum tart

It’s early spring but I’m already jumping ahead to the great summer fruit that’s soon to come. Plums are some of the first to appear – purple, red and yellow – and although they are delightful to eat on their own I especially love them in a plum tart. And we’re lucky to have our…
