French Onion Pasta with Cheesy Croutons, in an Instant Pot

It’s amazing how much this French Onion Pasta tastes like its namesake soup! The croutons give it a nice textural contrast.

Pumpkin Casserole

Cheesy, oniony, garlicky pumpkin casserole: spaghetti squash, unbelievably light pumpkin marinara, Swiss, Gruyère, and ground turkey.

Instant Pot Chicken and Rice Chili is comfort food: chicken, tomato, corn, hand-ground chiles, sun-dried tomatoes, cheese … yum!

Here’s a recipe for a beefy, meaty, cheesy Tex-Mex Sloppy Joe Cobbler in a Cast-Iron Pan with cornmeal biscuits. Comfort-food. Reheats well.

Rigatoni Pie with Parmesan, mozzarella, sausage, and red sauce. A cheesy, zesty, baked pasta that is as good reheated as it is freshly made.

I used this easy, homemade Crème Fraîche Blue Cheese Salad Dressing to dress a fresh berry and veg salad (with a rotisserie chicken breast).

Martha-inspired Mediterranean Tuna Salad: hardly “tuna salad.” It’s a veg explosion, fresh, light, flavorful. Mayoless. Cheese optional.

Swiss Cheese and Onion Soup with Homemade Croutons: another Mollie Katzen “Moosewood” recipe that I love, and have made again and again.

If I were served this ham and cheese sandwich at a French café, I’d be pleased. I’d Instagram and rave about it, seriously. Yet so easy!
