For when you’re looking to puree dishes.
I am a huge fan of making avocado dip. Over the last couple of weeks or maybe even months at this point, I’ve made it almost a dozen times! So, I’ve been making a big potluck batch. What I ordinarily do is just double my […]
Fall is in the air. It’s back-to-school time for little children. And my YouTube feed has started recommending Hocus Pocus-themed videos. Ahhh but it is only mid-August, 90 degrees out, and my local Costco has begun with their Christmas displays. Which makes me culinarily confused. […]
I’m in a nacho mood lately. I’ve been making a lot of Macaroni & Cheese lately and really just am intensely craving cheese! It’s really a comfort food. If anything is tiring or stressful or unexpected in my life, all I want is cheese. And […]

This week I have made Slow Cooker Pinto Beans w/ Bay Leaves & Lime, Vermicelli Salad w/ Cucumber & Tofu, and Avocado Dip w/ Greek Yogurt, Walnuts, & Lime. Now, these may all seem like disparate dishes from around the globe. After all, pinto beans […]
When I find myself unsure of what to make for the day, I often just go to the grocery store and peruse the aisles until something sparks my interest. Now, it’s not necessarily the best idea to go shopping while hungry! Especially if you may […]
I can almost blame Costco on this one. I was walking through the produce section and the avocados were actually ripe. Not bright green and would take days to get there. Not too browned and inevitably turned to sludge on the inside. But perfectly ripe, […]
