what we’re eating

Anyone surprised that this is another pinterest recipe? I had been looking for an excuse to make a 5 pound chocolate bundt cake because well, I don’t know that it’s a good idea to have so much chocolate sitting in your house staring at you. But it is a good idea to bring 5 pounds [...]

Curried Carrot Bisque

As a blogged about before, went through a rare cold spell here in Austin, and that means it’s time to utilize soup! And lots of it! We don’t have the opportunity to enjoy soup without overheating, unless, of course, it’s a cold soup, like gazpacho. So when I saw this soup recipe posted by a [...]

Thankfully, I find recipes that remind me that there are many different [...]

Black Bean Veggie Burger with Mango Salsa

Add another successful recipe to the vegetarian section of the recipe page! I’ve tried several versions of homemade veggie burgers previously, but had always been disappointed.
