Horseradish & Tarragon Roasted Salmon & Yukon Gold Potatoes

This recipe is one of my favorite flavor combinations that balances each of the bold ingredients included to yield a perfectly rounded flavor that is far from overwhelming, it’s harmonious actually. Roasting is also one of my favorite ways to cook, preparing all the ingredients at the beginning, then popping it in the oven and let the oven do the rest of the work.

Leek Soup

We had a first really chilly day today here in Kansas City, some people were sad, but I am happy! That’s mean fall and winter food time!!
