I love celebrating holidays with food whenever possible. Cinco de Mayo is a great holiday for food. Who doesn't love a big spread of Mexican food, however authentic? (If you don't, I hope we can still be friends.) Today's recipe is very versatile. You can make tacos, enchiladas, salad, nachos, and rice bowls. The world… Continue reading Pressure Cooker Mexican Chicken

Carrot Tahini Soup
Spring is here. I'm so excited for the warmer weather, sunshine, and vibrant colors. Even in my food, I want more color. Fast food is also key, because we want to soak up the sun while we can, right?

Beans and Cornbread
Quick apologies for my absence. I recently moved. Just a few miles, but into a house. A grown-up house. It is amazing and stressful and overwhelming and fun. Not only did that take a bunch of time, but I was cooking out of a microwave and electric skillet for several days. Sadly, this photo was… Continue reading Beans and Cornbread
