Lately I've mostly cooked European retro dishes. Best guide was an old Czech cookbook that had wonderful Olde World recipes for meat, fish and veggies.
My parents loved, among many dishes, an old-fashioned veggie salad consisting of boiled potatos, carrots, celery, peas, onion, pickles and organic mayo, vinegar plus Worcestershire sauce for the dressing. Salt and pepper feature as well.
What I also like about these foods is seasoning with herbs instead of chilies and curry powders. Nothing wrong with those but refreshing to try out past generation favourites once in a while.

Last week, I threw together a great dinner that had been in the back of my mind all day. I took some hot Italian sausage, cut it out of the casing, and sauteed it in olive oil. Then I added some garlic, some sliced Brussels sprouts, and some mushrooms. It was great!
You can serve it over rice if you want some carbs.
