Smoky Mango & Avocado Salsa

When I turned in my book manuscript last year, I couldn’t believe that I’d accidentally written more than would fit in the final book’s pages!

No-Guilt Chips + Queso

Whenever my out-of-town friends land in Austin, it seems like they’re united in a single-minded mission: to eat as much Tex-Mex as humanly possible while they’re here. Recently, while briefing one of them on the merits of various breakfast taco spots, I was shocked to learn that she’d never heard of queso. Wha?! In Texas, queso […]

Fig, Ricotta, & Almond Flatbread

I think this year was the first time I stopped by the farmer’s market, saw figs and actually wanted to buy them. I know, I know. It seems crazy that something so sweet, delicious, and versatile wouldn’t have made it onto my shopping list before, but I just didn’t know how to eat them. Growing up […]
