Everyone has a recipe for braised short ribs – different ways to slow cook a flavorful cut of meat and break it into delicious submission. Most variations include aromatic veggies, herbs and spices, and usually red wine. Whether you strictly follow this recipe or use it as a guide, you will not be disappointed by time’s ability to make you a delicious dinner. Why? When you braise short ribs all afternoon with red wine and aromatic veggies, you are rewarded with a delicious meal that’s devoured in literally 10 minutes. I served the short ribs on pasta and made a herby vinaigrette to top a garden salad. Seriously delish!
I’m 39 years old, and I have wanted children as long as I can remember. Despite my love of science and math, I am the quintessential girly girl – I played with dolls, I always wore dresses, and I dreamt of a knight in shining armor who would slay my dragons. And finally, after years of bad dates and worse relationships, I finally met the one who wanted the same things as me. (He doesn’t slay dragons, but he kills bugs, which is a more practical skill.)
I’m trying to watch my carbs, but not give up flavor. I was inspired by my mom’s amazing stuffed zucchini, but wanted something a little easier for my Monday night meal. Overall, this was a huge win! You only need a cutting board, knife, spatula or wooden spoon, and a big pot or pan. I love garlic and onions, and I will always err on the side of adding more rather than less. If you don’t love garlic, you are obviously a vampire, but you can cut back or omit it altogether.
