"Extra, extra, pico, please", is my only request, every time I eat Mexican, since as long as I can remember. Sometimes, I even look forward to the pico more than the actual meal. I love everything about pico de gallo, the freshness of the chopped veggies, the bursts of flavor.. pico is just awesome. I am…
The perfect addition to top off any taco, is this sauce I created with some inspiration from the internet and local rotisserie spots.

This simple mixture of goodness has been incorporated into a lot of meals I have made this year. It has accompanied some of my crock pot creations, been used as a side with my meals and also enjoyed as a snack. It takes minutes to make and is very inexpensive, even with organic produce. If you're…

Over Thanksgiving I was reminded how much I love deviled eggs and how much I miss making them! Whether I am bringing them to a dinner or making them for myself, deviled eggs are such an easy, delicious addition for any occasion. My good friend Emily W. had Christmas Tree-trimming party this past…
