Ewald Wild Rice Stew

This creamy, thick, grain-studded stew is so delicious that it deserves the author’s name in the title. Kimberly Ewald, who graciously shared this recipe with me, lives in Minnesota where the wild rice is the state grain and pantry staple. Needless to say, Kim is a wild rice aficionado and this stew is an excellent representation of the black grain.

AB&J (Almond Butter and Jam) Cookies

Disclaimer: your children will love this recipe. Any recipe that instructs them to jam their thumbs into cookie dough and fill it with jam is an A+ in their books. It’s a cookie that will win your heart, too. Raspberries and almonds are a winning combination and this recipe in particular highlights the flavors beautifully—lightly sweet, with a buttery almond flavor and pop of sweet raspberry goodness. If you and your children are fans of PB&J, you’ll love this cookie.

Feel free to mix in a little nut butter or sprinkle with berries and nuts.
