Beets! Who’s your favorite? We love beets, but we know that this brightly red root is not everyone’s favorite. These cakes may be able to convert some beet-haters. These cakes have a salty-sweet taste and go well with a yogurt dill sauce. These cakes can be made in a matter of minutes and can be eaten at […]

Does anyone else enjoy instant hot chocolate? The packets that you pour into a mug and add hot water to, then stir until the chocolatey comfort is instant.

Make these Japanese-style pork cutlets in 20 minutes or less. Jason and I are always trying to save money. He is a starving graduate student, and I am working two jobs (which include blog work because, let’s be honest – blogging can be a full-time gig!) To pay off the high credit card debt and […]

Black Truffle pasta imported from Italy, slathered with a creamy Meyer Lemon sauce! Remember when I made the truffle garlic fries? Gourmet Spot has sent me another tasting kit to play around with. This month’s box includes handpicked products from around the globe, such as Italy, New York, and Georgia. It will lead me to a most adventurous cu

This turkey bacon sandwich is topped with avocado slices, spicy chipotle spread, and fresh avocado!
