Who doesn’t love tacos?! Am I right?! I love tacos, and am a huge fan of taco Tuesday, but I never just limit myself to Tuesdays for tacos. For instance, I made these tacos on a Thursday, and they were still delicious! I come from the glorious state of California where we have a ton…
Mango Salsa
When I think of salsa I normally I think traditional tomato salsa. It hasn’t been until of late, that I have been expanding my horizons on what salsa can be! For Christmas we got a box from our aunt and uncle that contained cherry salsa, which is more of the consistency of traditional salsa. I…
Leftover Latkes
First off, I love potatoes! I love that there are so many different kinds of potatoes! Growing up I don’t think I realized that there was more than one type of potato (russet). I am sure I saw them in a grocery store shopping with my mom and helped her cook and all, but it…
Big Mac-ish Chili
Alright guys, this dish was inspired by a friend who wanted to have a Big Mac and Mcflurry game night. This dude went all out, toasted buns, special sauce, everything. When we layered our own burgers he was sure that we layered them correctly, I mean, I got in trouble for putting cheese down first,…
Apple Chippies
I absolutely love apple chips, I mean who doesn’t love a good dehydrated apple slice?! I am sorry if your are the few who do not enjoy apple chips, but I do think you are crazy, nothing personal! Out of all the dried fruit, next to craisins, dried apples are my favorite snack to enjoy…

I first encountered this combination…
Heirloom Tomato Pico de Gallo
First let’s talk about heirloom tomatoes. Honestly I don’t know if I have ever really had heirloom tomatoes. I have had beef steak and roma tomatoes, but not specifically heirloom tomatoes. Naturally, when I see pretty food in the grocery store I gravitate towards it, and that is exactly what happened when I saw a…
Smokey, Cool, Potato Salad
I don’t know about you, but I am a huge fan of potato salad. Up until a few years ago, I thought you could only make potato salad one way; with mustard and dill. Boy am I glad I was wrong! Don’t take it the wrong way, I do love potato salad with mustard and…
Easy Instant Pot Taco Soup
We all have those days when we don’t want to cook, I have been there! It is so nice to have recipes where you can just dump a few ingredients into a pot and leave it alone for 40 minutes or so. This is one of those recipes where there is not a lot of…
Summer’s Perfect Dessert: Smore’s Cake
When I think about summer I think about watermelon, lemonade, camping, campfire, and smore’s of course! The thing is, I am not a big fan of smore’s. I know, don’t hate me but it is just a sugary mess and I get all sticky and I hate it! But, I do enjoy smore’s desserts, like…
