We’ve shared Pierre Lamielle’s work here before — he’s an illustrator with a great sense of humor, a love of food, and a very chic kitchen. His current venture is Food on Your Shirt — a collection of t-shirts for food-lovers. It’s hard to pick just one, but I already want to wear this one to Thanksgiving dinner next year.

“A straightforward hummus that may be augmented with roasted red peppers or olives. Serve with crackers, flat breads or on a pita with sprouts for a great light lunch.”
Way back when, in the practically prehistoric days of the Internet (I’m talking 2009 here), we ran a reader recipe contest. Quick Weeknight Meals gave us a nice collection of really memorable and delicious weeknight meals. Here’s one of my personal favorites: Nicole’s lasagna roll-ups, which boast the trifecta of being easy, quick, and rather good for you.
Upon retesting, these pasta pinwheels turned out to be one of the easiest (and tastiest) dinners I’ve made all month, and given that they’re stuffed with low-fat cottage cheese and oodles of spinach.
Next time you visit Spain, be sure not to over-imbibe, even if you’re planning to walk back to your hotel.
In a surprising new proposal, the Directorate General of Traffic in Spain has proposed that walking while intoxicated could result in fines for the pedestrian if they are involved in an accident.

Simply smitten by this butter dish, which has echoes of Victorian tableware and old-school pudding molds. It’s a little confection for the table by Mud Studio, a favorite pottery studio.

“This is the ‘salsa de tomatillo’ that I grew up with. It can be used as a sauce for grilled chicken, fish or shrimp, as the basis for green chilaquiles (pour over tortilla chips, shredded cooked chicken and shredded Monterey Jack, then heat under the broiler), and as a dipping sauce for chips. Delicioso!”
Green smoothies get a lot of attention for “detox” or “cleanse” purposes, but I offer this recipe simply because it’s delicious. Packed with immune-boosting ingredients — like spinach, pear, and ginger — it’s bright and invigorating, yet not teeth-chatteringly cold. In other words: an excellent smoothie for winter.
