Shrimp Tacos with Slaw and Mashed Avocado

March 18, 2021 by Gina +

Tacos, very high on the list of favorite foods. And shrimp tacos are definitely at the top of that list. I haven't really had a go-to shrimp taco recipe, probably because I mostly order them out.

Chai Spiced Cupcakes

December 21, 2020 by Gina +

Chai spiced cupcakes. Back in fall with an overload of pumpkin, I tried my luck with a chai spiced baked good. Still all the fall and wintery vibes, but a happy change from all the pumpkin. Chai is one of my favorite flavors. It's so warm and cozy, absolutely perfect for these colder months. There's lots of bold chai flavor in the cupcake and a hint in the frosting. The cupcakes are

Potato Corn Chowder

December 10, 2020 by Gina +

Potato and corn chowder. This right here is my new favorite soup. Bold, yes, and likely to change as new ones come around, but for now, this is it. The chowder is hearty and full of flavor but oddly enough it is a very simple recipe. Simple ingredients, easy to make. Which just adds to it's all appeal. This was a very old recipe from my blog that needed a major facelift, so it got it. A
