I couldn’t let a holiday go by without making something themed! As I was thinking about making something for Valentine’s Day, it occurred to me that it was around this time last year that I started my blog. My first recipe was Valentine’s Day Popcorn Mix. When I went to check the exact day that…

Beer Battered Fish Tacos with Tomato Avocado Salsa
I’ve mentioned a couple times now that a month or two ago (has it really been that long?), Nick went to California for some training and came back with pounds of moose, deer and halibut from his aunt to stock our freezer. Well, this week, Nick had a buddy going out there and enlisted him…

Quinoa, Feta and Walnut Salad
I’m thinking about renaming this blog Flying on Quinoa. What do you think? I’m sorry, I love the stuff! If you haven’t tried it yet, these pictures probably won’t sell you on it. This may be one of the most unphotogenic foods I’ve made. No matter what I did, I just couldn’t make it look…
