The weather is marginally cooler this week, so I'm making a big pot of minestrone this afternoon, and started dough for a couple of loaves of bread today. Comfort food! Gumbo up next as soon as it drops below 70 at night. For the recipes this week, there's a fairly light stone-ground grits with spinach and shrimp from Virginia Willis. It'll be great for those of you in cooler parts of the country. Next, a simple dish of grilled shrimp with crushed tomatoes and lots of lime juice; that one needs plenty of hot butter French bread for soaking up the sauce and a roll of paper towels on hand to clean up. And finally, my go-to choice for Cajun jambalaya. I've made it more than once to take to family reunions, and even though it almost fills my 5-quart Dutch oven, I never have leftovers to bring home. It's that good. Enjoy the recipes, stay safe and healthy, and, as always, let me know what's on your mind.
