Welcome

Welcome to my blog. My blogging journey began about in August 2009 as a photo-a-day blog which has since transitioned to combine my love of good food and photography. Today, using as many local and fresh ingredients as we can, my boyfriend and myself spend time researching recipes, making our own adaptations, cooking, taking photos, eating, and finally reflecting on all or part of the above listed process here. I hope you take the time to not only read and look at our photos, but please cook some of the recipes yourself. You are invited and encourage to leave feedback as we continue our culinary journey!

Avocado Salad

Again, a simple salad recipe for a hot summer day using ingredient number 2 that Daniele does not care for: cilantro. I enjoyed this recipe with some cottage cheese topped with hot sauce.

Avocado Salad
  • 1 avocado-diced
  • 1 small sweet onion, minced
  • 1/2 green pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 large ripe tomato, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro
  • 1/2 lime, juiced
  • salt and pepper to taste
Simply mix all the ingredients together and you have your meal! Daniele is on his way to Italy this afternoon so this summer will be filled with easy recipes for one. On the list for this week: white bean and feta dip, zucchini with basil and goat cheese, and swiss chard pesto. Yum! But before I get to posting those I'll have some catching up to do-while Daniele was here last week we made some great recipes for you meat lovers. Stay tuned!
