This dish hails from Foxhollow Farm’s very own Maggie Keith. It is one of those fantastically flexible recipes which translates more as a concept rather than a strict, by the book process. The main ingredient is slow, slow cooking. And, of course, one of Foxhollow’s beautiful, grass-fed, sirloin tip roasts. I tucked my roast into the oven just before tucking …
Braised Chicken with Spinach & Couscous
As we’ve all just survived the polar vortex, I can think of no better way to rewarm our souls than with this meal. Salty, crispy skin gives way to the rich and succulent meat of the chicken thigh. It is swimming in a sauce of white wine, garlic, thyme and paper-thin onions with leafy green spinach sliding its way into …

Foxhollow Farm Ribeye with Sunchoke Purée
My third installment of the Foxhollow Farm monthly recipe series brings us my very favorite steak: the ribeye! Beautifully marbled, this particular cut of meat sits on the upper section of the cow’s ribs, protected from over use and allowed to remain healthfully fat. The next time you are at the Foxhollow Farm Store, take a close look at the …
Grilled Cheese with Mustard, Caramelized Onions & Bacon
At it’s ethos, a grilled cheese sandwich is all about an indulgence. This sandwich in particular is the definition of a splurge and I will not apologize for it’s decadence. I am certain we share the same feeling of nostalgia and contentment when pulling two halves of a grilled cheese apart, the cheese grasping hold, attempting to stay intact …
Spaghetti with Chard & Bacon
“Just let me know if you want any chard – I’m substituting other items in the CSA basket as no one seemed to really want it.” I’m standing at the Douglas Loop Farmer’s Market staring at Pavel in utter disbelief. What does he mean no one wanted the chard? My arms are already feeling the strain of the two bags I …
Foxhollow Farm Flat Iron Steak with Roasted Tomatillo & Ancho Salsa
Over the past year and a half my dear friend Maggie has welcomed me into her world at Foxhollow Farm. And what a glorious, biodynamic, grass-fed, farm-fresh world it is indeed. Located in Crestwood, Foxhollow is nestled in the Kentucky countryside, a peaceful and productive source for some of the very best food this region has to offer. I …
Farmer’s Market Hash
I have no idea why it took me so long to commit to a CSA. Short for Community Supported Agriculture, I wrote a check to a local farmer named Pavel in April. In exchange, he promised to provide me with farm-fresh, chemical-free veggies raised with organic and biodynamic farming methods in mind. While the amount of the check felt a bit hefty in …
Uova da Raviolo with Truffles
I remember when I was a little girl and I absolutely refused to eat the yolk of an egg. My Mom would always cook our eggs sunny-side-up, the yolk medium set. My little hands would cut around that yellow-orange mystery ball with incredible precision, being ever so cautious to ensure that the whisper-thin seal did not break, pouring over my silky-sheen egg …
