Main entrée and side dishes.
These are really the exact same seafood and vegan spring rolls that I’ve been making. But it is Halloween! And I do have squid ink in my refrigerator. So, I couldn’t help but turn this concoction into a festive themed dish. I’ve sautéed a couple […]
I have been exploring my local grocery store and looking for something fun and interesting to make this weekend. Every now and then I just get into a culinary rut. When, what I usually make, just seems repetitive and boring. What I cook tends to […]
I am always looking at those beautiful spring rolls with the bright pink shrimp glistening through the rice paper. They always look so elegant, reposed, and so above and beyond what I’m capable of making! After all, I do like a good plating and have […]
This burrito is full of calabaza squash. I’m incredibly fond of calabaza. It’s a very large squash that’s a bright orange hue with a sweeter and heartier flavor than your more typical butternut or pumpkin. Although both can easily be substituted in these recipes. I […]

This catfish salad is just as delicious as it looks. And I can’t quite believe that it’s taken me this long to make catfish! Living in rural Wisconsin these days, there is a plethora of catfish available in the area. I’ve heard mixed reviews about […]
I have finally done it. I have managed to get catfish on Catfish Out of Water. It seems like about time? I’ve had this blog about a year now. And, as much as I named this blog after my cat? I have never actually had […]
This is a surprisingly classic burrito for me. I’m quite often throwing everything plus the kitchen sink into a burrito. But squash, rice, avocados, and enchilada sauce? That is pretty tame for me! It might be Calabaza Squash Infused Rice w/ Homegrown Anaheim Peppers, Avocado […]
I made nachos the other day that are virtually identical to these. After all, I name all of my recipes after the ingredients in them. This makes it easier to find what you’re looking for and cuts down on the flowery language that serves only […]
