For when you’re looking for something to grill on the BBQ or trying to use that specialty piece of equipment in the back of tour pantry.
I’ve been taking time off of my day job to catch up on all of the things that I’ve been neglecting. Which apparently amounts to a full-time job worth of stuff! One of the things that I’ve been catching up on is putting more effort […]
Avocado dip is one of my all-time favorite dishes to make. It’s essentially a cross between hummus and guacamole. Although, today I made it with Sweet Potato Fritters, which are a Middle Eastern dish. So, I went for more of a hummus recipe with avocados, […]
It’s false spring. It’s 50 degrees. There are sunny skies. I left my jacket in the car three days ago never went back out to get it. But it’s supposed to drop 40 degrees and snow 3-6 inches by Thursday. Which I’m delighted about because […]

I am in full on Christmas leftover mode! It’s one of my favorite times of the year. There’s absolutely nothing better than all of the food over the holidays for the next couple of days. One of my favorite lazy day meals is tossing everything […]
One of my favorite times of the year is post-Christmas leftovers! I feel like so many people don’t cook any more. The culinary arts are dying form for the masses. As people cook less and people see each other less, the prevalence of big meals […]
I like to have fun with the holidays and use them as an opportunity to make something fun and new sometimes. This year, I went with a Moroccan-inspired Christmas menu. I couldn’t decide whether I wanted a cold salad or a hot salad. Because spinach […]
