Low-carb, paleo-friendly, and darn near indistinguishable from the real thing. Swear.

Irene Seales, Recipe Tester
A list of all the recipes Irene Seales has tested.
Picking blackberries and peaches for canning, snacking on stalks of homegrown rhubarb, and rolling grape leaves just right, Irene learned to cook in her Greek motherʼs kitchen, where she worked her way up like any new line cook, eventually earning the privilege of assembling baklava under watchful guidance. Today, Irene views cooking as both a creative endeavor and a way to understand the world, savoring both the solitary meditations of chopping, slicing, and sautéing along with the unpredictable experiences inherent in cooking and eating good food with others. Her willingness to talk to anyone has led to shameless interrogations of waiters and chefs, baristas and bakers, farmers and butchers, and fellow home cooks. For Irene, the best seat is always at the kitchen counter, especially if it’s affogato time.
Curried Chickpeas
Easy, inexpensive, not too spicy, comforting as heck, and made with ingredients you probably already have on hand. Also just so happens to be vegan and gluten-free. Who loves you?!

Pretty much banana nut bread smothered in honey cinnamon butter. Feels indulgent. But actually quite virtuous.

Baked Polenta with Sausage and Cheese
The epitome of Italian comfort food. Polenta, Italian sausage, and cheese (two kinds!) are simply layered and baked. Basta.
