I was perusing the Precision Nutrition website and came across a post by Ryan Andrews, one of the PN nutrition experts and a vegetarian bodybuilder.

Recently I got a new enamel-coated-cast-iron pan that I'm quite infatuated with. This pan is so heavy and conducts heat so well that I thought I'd try using it to make pot roast on top of the stove, something I never did before because I didn't have the type of heavy dutch oven you need to cook a roast this way. I used boneless chuck roast, rubbed it with some steak rub, and seasoned the liquid wi

Bechamel sauce, white sauce, is one of the most basic sauces used in cooking. It's an easy sauce to make if you remember to keep stirring the ingredients throughout.

Some will even cheat and use milk, but up the butter

My friend Emily's grandmother was Greek and taught her some great Greek dishes which she's shared with me over the years. She's actually partly responsible for my interest in herbs and spices.

With the lemon-garlic butter sauce it was divine.
