Main Dishes

Here is an overview of all of the main dishes from the meals on this blog, which can be accompanied by various side dishes of choice.  Emerging as the approach-of-choice for my cooking style and habit, is a mix-and-match combination of main dishes plus side dishes, as this has some advantages:

• promotes a feeling of different food variety in meals which goes a long way to feeling satisfied with a meal, and
• takes advantage of seasonal availability, sales and discounts, and being able to consume the ingredients already in the kitchen.  

While still very rough and blossoming forth, I favor this mix-and-match dishes approach over the one-dish-wonder, as it just seems to result in more memorable and favorable meals, and the flavors of the foods seem to work out better.  There are some one-dish-wonder meals which are an exception, however, and these tend to be great make-ahead meals for the freezer, for those days or evenings where it just isn't ideal to cook, and these have been noted in the table below.  Click on any column title to sort on that column.
