Goat Cheese with Olives, Lemon, and Thyme
Words sort of elude us when we attempt to describe just how stunning and scrumptious we consider this dish. Just…wow.

Roasted Curried Cauliflower
After tasting this richly spiced yet surprisingly nuanced recipe we asked them to try, someone suggested we change our name to “Leite’s Cauliflower.” Hmmm…
Vanilla Wafer Banana Pudding
Not a lot has changed since you last had this after-school classic. It’s still easy. It’s still quick. And it’s still gosh darned comforting as heck.
Fall-Off-the-Bone Baby Back Ribs
The secret to these knee-wobblingly tender little lovelies? Roast ’em low and slow and then toss ’em on the grill for just a short spell. Which means you don’t have to constantly tend a smoker from dawn to dusk.

One taste and you’ll forget all about that butter and brown sugar trick your mom taught you long ago. Promise.
