Holy moly, I have cooked some good things recently and have not been sharing them with you guys! Instead of writing up too many food posts, I decided to just dump them all here into one post. You guys don’t mind, right? Let’s get started. Back in July, I made some Beef Empanadas for a friend’s birthday [...]

I do still cook new recipes. Really. We have just gotten lazy about taking pictures and my meal planning has gotten a little predictable because life has just gotten so busy.

So my parents came in town this weekend. And it seems to be a new tradition that my mom brings a turkey with her whenever she comes to visit. Yes. I said a turkey. Like a thanksgiving turkey, cooked in Dallas, driven to Austin and ready to be eaten. Well, it’s a delicious tradition and [...]
Again on the search for quick and tasty meals, I found this recipe. I pretty much already had everything on hand (still have beef in the freezer, that’s for sure), except for the couscous, which a quick trip to the bulk aisle quickly rectified. If you haven’t tried couscous, it’s an ultra quick version of [...]
