Recipes including dips and sauces. This includes anything from salad dressing to hummus to salsa.
I’ve been in a rice and beans mood lately. They’re both really great quick and easy recipes that you can toss together on the go. I like to start a batch of beans in the morning before I go to work or at night right […]
I know that I’m going to make Enchiladas w/ Pinto Beans, Mexican Rice, & Roasted Potatoes. Ordinarily, I would make enchilada sauce. However, I’m feeling a bit lazy at the moment. After all, I did just make Slow Cooker Pinto Beans w/ Habaneros & Garlic, […]
I can’t say that I have any experience with “authentic” crema. It’s one of those things where there doesn’t seem to be a lot of consistency across recipes. Although I’m always trying to recreate the flavor of it baked on top of the world’s most […]
It’s officially fall and you know what that means: It’s pepper season. Peppers are a fall harvest crop and one of my favorite things to grow. It might take all summer for them to ripen in my climate, but it’s well worth the effort when […]

Yesterday I made a Quinoa Salad w/ Mini Potatoes, & Avocado. As well as quinoa keeps and is good chilled. I’m kind of partial to room temperature quinoa. I don’t always have the patience to let the quinoa warm up on its own and I […]
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, […]
I have a disparate array of ingredients. I was originally thinking that I might make tzatziki. Although I wanted to roast the squash. Which made me think of making curry, instead. But curry would be better with cubed squash, instead of puréed. Which would be […]
