We had a couple friends over on Saturday night, and Alex made this lasagna that I had spotted in Martha Stewart Living. It was ridiculously amazing: No tomato sauce, but instead lemon, sausage, and Swiss chard. The balance of flavors was pitch-perfect, especially with the tart lemon. I would highly, highly recommend it.Where are your favorite places to find good recipes? Magazines? Cookbooks? Blogs?
clean eating magazine is amazing for whole, natural food recipes.

That sounds really good. I'm lucky. My boyfriend is a cook. he loves trying new things. He doesn't ever use recipes though.
ReplyDeleteMy Heart Blogged
I find a lot of recipes through blogs, such as the Wednesday Chef, but I also like my cooking aps (Martha Stewart and Jamie Oliver) on my itouch and love to go back to my favourite cookbooks.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely delicious!
ReplyDeletei love the wednesday chef!
ReplyDeletejoythebaker.com!
ReplyDeleteAnd my Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry is quickly becoming my favorite cookbook.
I love the twist with tart lemon! It has to add such a great new flavour:) I love reading cookbooks and cooking blogs. Jamie Oliver has such an amazing recipes. Have you seen his newest cookcook? Its about quick 30 minutes meals:)Im in love! Have a great Monday.
ReplyDeleteSimply obsessed with Smitten Kitchen! Her recipes are fail-proof!
ReplyDeleteBecca
My favorite magazines for recipes are MSL and Food & Wine, and my favorite internet resources are Smitten Kitchen and Epicurious (their search engine is great - I use it when I have a few ingredients to use up and need ideas - you can usually find a recipe featuring everything you need to use up!). This lasagna looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a unique combination of flavours! I bet it's delicious. I tend to favour magazines for recipes but only if they feature photos. Must see what the end result should look like.
ReplyDeleteCook books, magazines & websites without recipe photos should be banned. ;)
I remember you talking about this on Twitter. I need to try it... YUMMY! :-)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, if you have a minute, drop by. I've posted about a beautiful French Chateau... it's truly dreamy!
Have a blessed week,

Luciane at HomeBunch.com
can alex cook for me? just have him mail me something. i'm sure it'll still be fine by the time it reaches europe.
ReplyDeleteI really love getting recipes from Food Network that way I can see the prep in action but otherwise I love mags like Real Simple, Epicurious, and Martha :) Smitten Kitchen and the Bitten Word are great too!
ReplyDeletewowzah! that sounds delicious and v unique. way to go alex! xoxo jcd :: ps do stop by cornflake dreams

I also love reading Saveur magazine. Soooo many good recipes and articles. :)
Wow - I've never heard of a lasagna quite like it ! Amazing!
ReplyDeletei saw that lasagne and thought about giving it a go. now i most definitely will! it looks so tasty!
ReplyDeletei love smitten kitchen for recipes online, but usually i will just stumble on things in magazines. martha of course, whole living, sunset and bon appetit mostly.
Smitten Kitchen and 101 Cookbooks are my tippy top favorites.
ReplyDeleteI love how Deb at SK gets recipes from the best of the best sites and adjusts them to her own tastes.

ReplyDeleteIf I could afford it, I would turn my kitchen into a natural foods pantry and make/bake/cook everything that Heidi makes. I adore her recipes.
Thanks, Joanna! this looks wonderful. Question: do you eat the lemon slices, rind and all? or remove them as you eat?
ReplyDeleteSmitten Kitchen and 101 Cookbooks are my favorite recipe sources. I am a bad baker but somehow Heidi's recipes from 101 cookbooks always come out perfectly!
Julia
This sounds and looks amazing! I will definitely have to try it!
ReplyDeletepioneer woman, smitten kitchen and now pintrest!
ReplyDeletejoanna-- are you watching the bachelor? season finale tonight!
Lemon, sausage, and swiss chard?? Oh my goodness, this needs to happen immediately. Thank you for sharing!

looks easy and delicious. i've been on quite the sausage kick myself, try my sausage and olives with angel hair.
ReplyDeleteYum! That sounds amazing, well done Alex!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite place to search for recipes is still the good old Gourmet website. I miss our subscription so much!
I'm a big blogger fan - especially Smitten Kitchen and Orangette. I do subscribe to Bon Appetit but sometimes there aren't enough hours in the day to look through it!
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge Martha Stewart recipe fan. I just got the app and am LOVING IT! Endless supply of ideas. Also love Real Simple for quick recipes.
ReplyDeletethat looks divine! are you familiar with david lebovitz's blog and site? i LOVE his recipes and on twitter, he is a roar! wickedly funn...;)
ReplyDeleteit looks delicious!!
ReplyDeleteIn no particular order:
ReplyDelete101cookbooks
orangette
sprouted kitchen
my new roots
green kitchen stories
saveur magazine
ottolenghi's "new vegetarian" column in the guardian
any book by deborah madison
That sounds so different and delicious at the same time! I love finding recipes in magazines - Cooking Light, Real Simple and "special issues" that feature tons of recipes. I also like checking out blogs like Fun and Fearless in Beantown, A Boston Food Diary and Crockpot 365. Websites like Allrecipes.com and foodnetwork always have some great ones too!
ReplyDeleteI love The Pioneer Woman...great food over there~
ReplyDeleteThat looks so good!! And I'm not a huge fan of tomato-based sauces, so I love pasta like this!
ReplyDeletegluten free godess is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat looks lovely and tasty. I watch a lot of food network. Especially Giada so I get a lot of my recipe from there. Thanks for sharing. I'll have to try this =)
ReplyDelete- Sarah
http://agirlintransit.blogspot.com/
I really like to find ideas on RealSimple.com or in the magazine at the check out :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks realy good I can almost smell it!
Oh yum! I love anything lemon, especially in this weather. I love picnic food!
ReplyDeleteHey Joanna!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to try out that Lasagna because I can't imagine a dish that isn't overpowered by the swiss chard, so I'm REALLY curious! :)
Here are some of my favorite food blogs:
The Wednesday Chef
http://www.thewednesdaychef.com/the_wednesday_chef/
Whole Living - A Martha Stewart site
http://www.wholeliving.com/
and Kitchenist
http://www.kitchenist.com/
Those are my favorite. Thanks for introducing a new recipe and all the goodness you share with us everyday. Also, I have a request. I was wondering if it would be possible for you to show us how your decorator painted your blue lamp. How she prepped it, which type of paint she used, etc. A DIY post? I realize you have a ton on your plate, I just thought I'd throw it out there. :)
Thanks again,
Alice

(I need to figure out to to the linky thing...)
Martha Stewart 100%! I only have time to make about 1/8 of the recipes I pull out from her magazine, but her website is an amazing resource for just about every food craving possible.
ReplyDeleteThe lighter chicken pot pie recipe that uses phyllo dough instead of pastry is especially delicious!
One of my favorite cookbooks is Ad Hoc by Thomas Keller. It's a "couture" look at cooking- all handmade, from the sauces to jam to full entrees! I especially love it because Keller is from California wine country, just like me!
ReplyDeleteVeralynn
joiedeveralynn.blogspot.com
omg i must try this!!
ReplyDeleteI love recipes from the Martha Stewart site! This blog is also good: http://fortheloveofcooking-recipes.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteYummy that lasagna looks delicious - the lemon is such a unique idea! Food gawker, smitten kitchen, and all recipes are my go-tos when looking for new recipes!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite food blog right now is sutterbeans.com, the recipes are amazing (i've tried the broccoli cheddar soup, banana bread and garlic bread so far, all delicious) and the author really funny. Highly recommended xx
ReplyDeleteI just clipped this recipe from Martha last night and showed it to my hubby. We're planning to make it on Wednesday night!
ReplyDeleteI'm mostly gluten-free, and one of my favorites is definitely Cannelle et Vanille (http://cannelle-vanille.blogspot.com/); glorious photos and recipes so delicious you'd never think they were gluten free!
ReplyDeleteI highly endorse Martha, Smitten Kitchen and 101 Cookbooks for recipe inspiration. I also love Cooking Light magazine which always has incredibly tasty dishes which have been re-worked to be healthy. Most of their recipes are on the website myrecipes.com which also has recipes from about 3 other magazines like Southern Living and Real Simple. The other publication I like is Everyday Food which is also a Martha magazine but it's easier fare with less steps.
ReplyDeleteThe food blog world is vast! I occasionally blog about my favorite recipes if you're interested!
http://theflyingquiche.blogspot.com/
What a wonderfully fresh sounding recipe! I will have to try a vegan adaption of this in the summer as I always have soooo much chard in my CSA when it's in season locally. yum!
ReplyDeletemina, you're going to love it! :) and smitten kitchen is amazing.
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! I love white bechamel sauce instead of tomoato sauce, and I have just begun to realize that you cancook with lemon slices. I am dying to make this!
ReplyDeletemmmm! My mouth is watering! I usually put in a call to my mom (mom's are the best :) or I put a my cup of te(a) spin on recipes that I find on blogs and especially the food network! I always find myself consulting the Barefoot Contessa- quite unintentionally. She really does have the best ideas!
ReplyDeleteOooh, will definitely try this, thanks for the share!
ReplyDeleteIf you're in the mood for thai...try this:

It's the closest to authentic tom yum soup I've had!

Wow, that looks delicious! I love trying recipes from blogs! Also, check out my friend Alanna's blog: twofatals.com
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your blog!
http://happylifeinnyc.blogspot.com/
I love Martha Stewart as well!
ReplyDelete'Eat Live Run' blog is amazing though too, very inspired.
I try recipes from Shape magazine or Shape.com to TRY to keep it healthy. But I have cooked many Nigella Lawson recipes, which I love, also Jamie Oliver, Ina Garten, and online:
ReplyDelete101 Cookbooks

Cupcakes and Cashmere posts recipes

101cookbooks.com is a fantastic vegetarian cooking blog. I just made her Pierce street vegetarian chili. Delicious and fed our family of 3.5 for 4 nights! So funny because I also used to live on Pierce Street in San Francisco and the wind would literally "pierce" your soul, something I think you New Englanders could relate to.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this looks delicious! I'll have to try it.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.thevanitylair.com/
That looks sooooo yum, I'm totally going to try to make it. Thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteIn a way I'm lucky; a lot of my friends are chefs. I get inspiration from their food and just run with it. I have a strong enough background in food that mostly I experiment. If I find my self looking for inspiration I wander the internet...actual print cookbooks seem to be more food photography inspiration for me.
joanna, this looks amazing! I'm definitely going to try this soon because I actually don't really care for traditional lasagna that much...
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious! Thank you for posting...
ReplyDeletewww.featherfactor.com
I've been a vegetarian for 7+ years, so I subscribe to Vegetarian Times magazine, which I absolutely love...and I also get a lot of ideas & recipes from Epicurious online & in their iphone app.
ReplyDeleteI love this recipe! I've made it twice, once with chard and once with collard greens, which make it taste a bit stronger and punchier but still great. I posted about this on my own blog (www.life_savour.net) - coincidentally enough in a post that was all about my recent cookbook and magazine inspirations! Right now I'm loving Heidi Swanson's Super Natural Cooking, which is encouraging me to try out ingredients I've never even heard of.
ReplyDeleteOh I saw this in my Martha Stewart mag and have been dying to try it!
ReplyDeleteI missed your weekly round up Friday post! It's always a harbinger of the weekend for me
ReplyDeleteI like to use http://www.foodgawker.com, because it pulls from all the best of the blogs and I usually find something intriguing there. I also love Smitten Kitchen, Sunday Suppers, Martha Stewart, Real Simple and Epicurious.
ReplyDeleteblogs, definitely!
ReplyDeletethey show someone elses opinion on the recipe, or sometimes an interesting twist the the original recipe, and usually they feature more photos of the making of process, or a single serving of the food prepared, and i like that!
Yum!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe no one has said Simply Recipes yet! Especially for soups, like crab bisque: http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/soup_and_stew/
I love the blogs: popsiclesandsandyfeet.blogspot.com and unionstreeteats.blogspot.com up to date blogs from CT and Brooklyn. Yum!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds great. I bet it would be good with turkey sausage, too.
ReplyDeleteNigella Lawson is the queen of good cooking. I absolutley love her books!
ReplyDeletexx
This makes me hungryyyy!
ReplyDeleteoh it's different.
ReplyDeletei find inspiration through reading blogs.
one perfect bite.blogspot.com
and check this one out (she is having a published book coming up
cannelle-vanille.blogspot.com
Martha Stewart Living! I feel like so many of her recipes are so doable and not intimidating while being equally tasty! That lasagna looks absolutely delicious!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful Monday!

That Girl in Pearls
Mmmm, looks incredibly delicious!
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of cookbooks that I regularly use (one called Street Food and one called A Measure of Grace) and then epicurious, but I may have to try this! Thank you!
windeater.blogspot.com
I find my favorite recipes on blogs...and from inside my head. {That's where I keep my famous cheesecake recipe, and my grandmother's cornbread stuffing, and my own version of a shepherd's pie}...Now I'm hungry! LOL}
ReplyDeleteIt looks gorgeous. I'm not a big fan of tomatoes so this would be perfect for me!
ReplyDeleteRamblings of a Small Town Girl
Fanciful Brainstorm - Tumblr
This looks delicious! I'm also obsessed with Smitten Kitchen and Ina Garten cookbooks and for Indian cooking Madhur Jaffrey cookbooks.
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! Love that it doesn't have tomato sauce.
ReplyDeletesmitten kitchen and jaime oliver...the best!
ReplyDeleteIn addition to 101cokbooks, smittenkitchen and eatmakeread two down under favourites are stonesoup and whatkatieate!
ReplyDeletesmittenkitchen.com! every single thing I've tried off her site has been amazing
ReplyDeletehaha, sorry, maya pamela, it was such a busy day, i just didn't get to the weekend post! :) will definitely do one this coming friday. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! I love getting recipes from Martha, they are always good and easy to make. I have not looked through my new Living magazine but now I am really looking forward to sitting down with it tonight!
ReplyDeleteonly in german so far, but we try to put in articles in english as well some time
ReplyDeletehttp://meineliebedasessen.blogspot.com/
I can imagine a lasagna without tomato sauce. But you said sausage so it's worth a try.
ReplyDeleteThanks for asking this question--I'm finding so many awesome blogs and sites for amazing recipes!
ReplyDeleteI'd say my go-to sites would be www.thepioneerwoman.com and www.melskitchencafe.com.
I love that they're tried and true and they're writing and descriptions are pretty entertaining too!
I love cookbooks and various magazines but my computer default is Allrecipes.com The user reviews are so great that you never need to worry about how it'll come out.
ReplyDeletemade this for dinner last night for my pops and my husband. they both loved it despite the fact that my husband "hates" chard. it was great.
ReplyDeletesmitten kitchen, wednesday chef, orangette and mark bittman and the kitchn are my current resources.
This seriously is a must. I love familiar dishes with a twist. Yum.
ReplyDeleteBased solely on this recipe you would LOVE Sprouted Kitchen. She is currently working on a cookbook too!
ReplyDeleteMy bible cookbooks since having baby #3 back in April are are:
ReplyDeleteReal Simple - Meals Made Easy
Real Simple - Easy delicious meals
I also just picked up:
Ina Garten - How Easy Was That?
They are all SO super easy and yummy. I have to go by my family because I am cooking blind most nights being a strict vegetarian for the past 29 years. They have given a thumbs up for every single recipe so far.
I love the recipes on Houseandhome.com. And I love other food bloggers as well!
ReplyDeleteI use Smittenkitchen.com most often, but I do look at cookbooks when I'm interested in a certain cuisine. Occasionally, I'll look at other websites (e.g. unedeuxsenses for macarons) or magazines.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds amazing! I'll have to give it a try. I heart Everyday Food, Real Simple (because it's almost always really simple...and really delicious) and various other magazines. I'm also a big AllRecipes fan. And of course I love Julia Child. Other than that, I like to create my own stuff.
ReplyDeleteMust try this! Thanks for sharing :) My faves are: Sprouted Kitchen (Sara is working on her first cookbook!), Sunset Magazine, Epicurious, Martha Stewart.
ReplyDeleteRecipe sources (in order of preference)
ReplyDelete1. My mum
2. Nigella Lawson's website
3. Martha Stewart (I have to convert the temperatures to celsius though because I'm Aussie)
4. Donna Hay Magazine - http://www.donnahay.com.au/ (she hosted Oprah in Sydney)
5. Cooking encyclopedias and Women's Weekly cookbooks http://www.australian-womens-weekly.com/ (especially the cookie recipes)
Closet cooking is an amazing recipe blog! I love it
ReplyDeleteI made that this weekend too! We used vegetarian sausage instead and it was still soooo good! Highly recommend.
ReplyDeleteAnother epicurious fan here. I joined the site back in the mid-nineties, when I started catering my first parties as a teen (and by catering I mean making 4 dozen each of strawberry lemon curd tartlets and kiwi lime cream tartlets - I was cooking from a very young age!).
ReplyDeleteI HAVE to tell you about my all-time favorite cookbook. Gordon Hammersley's Bistro Cooking at home. It is a MUST. Finally bought it after having it out from the library for months. THe roast chicken is our go-to for company; we even made it for our backyard wedding this summer!
There are so many great cooking blogs out there. I have a whole slew of them on my sidebar. While I love the accessibility of blogs, sometimes I just desire flipping through the pages of a gorgeous cookbook. Williams Sonoma Cookbook is my favorite.

Love your blog! And the lasagna sounds fabulous!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

ReplyDeleteholaaa soy de españa, concretamente del norte! me encanta tu blog asi que me quedo para seguir todas tus recetas:) kissssssssssss
Sometimes, when I am hungry, I peruse my favorite blogs for recipes, and then I stumble upon ones like this and get so overwhelmed by my hunger that I can't imagine that I'll get to the store in time to get ingredients, let alone cook. That's when I get really close to eating random things from the fridge, but I have to stop myself and hold out for something better.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I tend to look to blogs for recipes, partly because I like to hear how people's review and added suggestions/tweaks.
On that note, thanks for sharing this; I've added it to my recipes list!
Hi Joanna,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing this recipe - my husband made it last night and it was SO ridiculously AMAZING! Absolutely my favorite lasagne! (Can't wait to get home for leftovers tonight!!)
