Welcome to Everyday Menu, where we define ourselves by the food we eat and the stories we tell, as we pass plates and bowls around the table.

Some of these recipes are special-occasion, and also accessible and uncomplicated home-style cooking. With many of the recipes, it doesn't matter if you're cooking for two or fifteen; changing the quantities is easy.

Sharing a meal helps define who we are as a family. Hopefully in Everyday Menu, you'll find heaping portions of tradition and culture, of good food and family togetherness.
