We have made a similar recipe with kale, but have recently fallen in love with the tangy flavor of Italian parsley and thanks to a great farmer friend who grows it organically and profusely, we can happily integrate it into more recipes.

We love twice baking … potatoes, squashes, all of it. It bakes all of the flavors into a integrated soft delicious mass that is warm and homey and satisfying.

We also think of honey and ginger as natural cold strategy which is perfect for the cold weather months, so maybe it is a coincidence that it also is a delicious flavor combination with Fall and Winter foods like squashes and yams.

Three healthy biotics in one rich creamy soup ... celery, rosemary and yogurt! 

Apples, nuts and squash - it's like a winter wonderland! Any way you put these together it's gonna be good.

This is a recipe from our enFuso "Chef Demo" at the Williams-Sonoma Crystal Cove in Newport Beach, California. It got a great reception at the demonstration, especially when they noshed on the surprise inside – that perfectly al dente and smoky asparagus tip!
