This book-inspired recipe for The Cloisters is an amalgamation of all my lunchtime favorites.
We're talking Chicken Caesar Wraps with hearty pieces of white meat chicken. We're talking Caesar Salads with creamy, dreamy dressing. And, we're talking cool and refreshing pasta salads.
What's a girl to do when she can't decide what to have for lunch?

I’m gonna be honest with you, Tartlets. I’m not sure that these Savory Thyme and Caraway Biscuits turned out exactly like they’re supposed to. But, I thought they were really tasty. And Mr Tart thought they were really tasty.
So, I decided to bite the bullet (or biscuit) and give you these savory bundles as the book-inspired recipe for Hamnet.

We're keeping it short n' sweet with this Simple Tomato, Corn, and Torn Basil Salad, Tartlets.
As you saw earlier this week, this salad was served up with my Grilled Rosemary Balsamic Steaks. This side dish is another Old Country book-inspired recipe that pays homage to cooking with fresh, homegrown ingredients.

Just like with the grilled steaks, rustic is the name of the game when it comes to making Tomato, Corn, and...
My herby, tangy, and refreshing Chilled Seafood Salad is the perfect dish for a light summer meal. I don't know about you, but once June rolls around, all I can think about is having an icy glass of lemonade, reading lots of books instead of working, and wishing I lived by the beach instead of in the mountains. And this year, after my adventures in Charleston where I ate ALL THE SEAFOOD, I just wasn't ready to let go of that shellfish...
It’s hard to believe that these Sally Lunn Buns came out of my kitchen. But, they did, and they're freaking perfect. A reminder about me and bread-making... In case you don't remember, I suck making yeasted bread. Like, really suck at it. I mean, I've done it, with mixed results. There was the Fig and Pepper Bread, which turned out surprisingly great, and then the Cinnamon Rolls-turned-Cinnamon Cake, which, while delicious,...
The Summer of Salads continues with make-ahead marvel Caprese Farro Salad. While my Arugula Salad with Watermelon and Feta is a perfect appetizer for your fancy dinner party, you’ll want to haul along a container of Caprese Farro Salad to your next BBQ or neighborhood potluck. Why is Caprese Farro Salad the book-inspired recipe for Musical Chairs? One of the things I loved about Musical Chairs was the mood that it sets. Think hot,...
Freshen up your summer with Arugula Salad with Watermelon and Feta! Honestly, summers are made for salads. Mr Tart and I practically live on them during the hot, humid months. Mainly because we live in New Jersey, where summertime = tons of local, fresh produce. But, it’s also because we want to spend as little time cooking over a hot stove as possible. Why is Arugula Salad with Watermelon and Feta the book-inspired recipe for The...
Say hello to your new comfort food dish: Smothered Chicken and Broiled Broccolini.
Why is Smothered Chicken and Broiled Broccolini the book-inspired recipe for Meg and Jo? This book-inspired recipe for Meg and Jo was an easy pick. One of the things I loved about this novel is that it contains no shortage of delicious food. At one point, Jo March is asked to make “family dinner” for the restaurant crew where she works. Jo whips up a...
I never thought I could love a meatless burger so dang much. These Chickpea Burgers with Mint Tahini Carrot Slaw have stolen my heart. But, in the words of Chandler Bing: Could the name of this dish BE any longer?!? Sheesh. Why are Chickpea Burgers with Mint Tahini Carrot Slaw the book-inspired recipe for The Book of Longings This book-inspired recipe is a bit of a wild card for me. If you've been following my blog for awhile,...
We only have a few more days until it's officially fall, so I'm squeezing in one last summery recipe with this Chickpea Shepherd's Salad.
Why is Chickpea Shepherd's Salad the book-inspired recipe for Beautiful Bad? Although Beautiful Bad was a DNF for me, it definitely delivered in one aspect: FOOD. Main characters Maddie and Joanna often met up to share a meal, even though they lived in different countries. Each time, they made sure...
