Pasta with Asparagus

PollyJune 6, 2018July 18, 2025

I was underwhelmed with this recipe. The ingredient list didn’t add up to much for me. But Abby wanted to make it, and what Abby wants, Abby gets! I was wrong. This is a knock out pasta dish; easy, quick…

Roasted Brussels Sprouts

PollyJanuary 16, 2011August 28, 2025

Brussels sprouts ruined every Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner for the first thirty years of my life. It was a rule, in my parents’ house, that everyone had to eat one Brussels sprout at Thanksgiving dinner and another at Christmas dinner. I…

With New Potatoes and Seared Asparagus Spears! My friend John, the rugged, he-man, Lake Superior Chef of Asian Glazed Thigh fame, has submitted another recipe. I am posting this now because it sounds like it’s just the thing for a…

Veganized! Hoisin Chick’n Lettuce Wraps

JocelynSeptember 23, 2010August 3, 2025

These taste a lot like the lettuce wraps at The Yard House and they are super easy and fast to make. After tasting this, I felt it needed a little heat to contrast with the cool, crispness of the lettuce…

Zucchini Pasta

PollySeptember 11, 2010August 28, 2025

I have debated back and forth about posting this recipe. Pros: it uses up zucchini, which is very important this time of year! The pasta recipe is good; simple, straightforward, and good. Cons: It’s not GREAT; it’s good, but it’s lacking…

Chilled Green Beans for Snacking

Move over Doritos! Get out of here Bagel Bites! Got you beat, baby carrots! I find these to be quite an addictive finger food. They are a perfect summer appetizer, seasonal, chilled, and good for you. What’s wrong with a…

In the US, a “good” dinner is a main dish, maybe a veggie, a starch and a green salad.  In England, the norm for a “good” dinner is a main dish, mash and three veggies. I’m English. Three veggies, please! …

About Me

polly of the kitchen

It's all about the recipe—really, it is! I have amassed quite a collection of recipes from my favorite cookbooks, food magazines, friends, the Internet, and more recently my adult daughters. I test every recipe I post. Some I've been cooking for years, decades even, and a few I have made only a few times. I don't post mediocre recipes. I don't post good recipes. I post GREAT recipes! When I find a recipe I LOVE, I can't wait to share it. I started In the Kitchen with Polly on January 01, 2010, a joint venture between myself and my non-cooking but most excellent webmaster, proofreader, technical goddess and all-around bestie, ratty (not a joke—ratty is her chosen nickname—her Mama didn’t do that to her, she did it to herself!). Last year we hit a snag—the website went up in monstrous flames. It took a long time to sort out what happened and even longer to recreate what was lost. Hundreds of pictures gone, and every recipe we posted (300+) over the last 14 years had to be reformatted, many pictures retaken. It's done now though, and we are back! I like this brighter version :) Scroll through! Find something you like, and let's get cooking! There’s a search button and there are also tags to click on if you want to find a recipe for a specific food. If you need it, the print button is on the preview page and at the end of each post.

Enjoy!
