I love a crispy taquito. I usually prefer shredded beef but for this one I used my mother’s recipe and used corned beef. Absolutely delicious with some guacamole.

Last week we lost a true icon and humanitarian. Dolly Parton was so many things for so many people. My humble tribute is the “Cuppa Cuppa Cake” from Steel Magnolias. Easy to make, tasty, and perfect with that vanilla ice cream.

I recently got this awesome spinning glass from Joshua Flores and Vanessa Flores so I figured: why not a summer mocktail? I made some jalapeño syrup for this drink which gives it a nice spicy and sweet kick. Garnished with a cherry popsicle for that summer flair.

Pizza time! Some good guesses yesterday but I just had to test the dough from this book. Nice and crispy; I’ll definitely do this one again.

A while ago I was given “The Joy of Cooking” from Trishelle Jeffery (we’re gonna eat good!). I’ve been coming through the book and getting tons of ideas. So let’s play America’s favorite game: what did I make and what will I do with it?

More lunch prep! I’ve only had jerk chicken so when I came across jerk shrimp, I had to try it. Wonderfully spicy and tempered well with the corn and radish. Like the others this week, can be made days in advance.

Some more meal-prep lunches. This one is a favorite of mine. Very Greek inspired, I have rotisserie chicken with a simple cucumber and tomato salad. Kalamata olives are some of my favorite olives. Pair that with pita and hummus and that’s the makings of a delicious lunch that can be prepared days in advance.

Back to school! Any student’s favorite period seems to be lunch (mine was English; big surprise). For back to school week, I thought I’d highlight lunch prep. Here, I have some marinated steak to go with some guacamole, rice, beans, and salsa. All this can be prepped a day or two ahead of time for a tasty lunch.

I couldn’t just stop with ice cream after making vanilla. I tried my hand at strawberry. It didn’t have that creamy texture I was aiming for but it definitely had the flavor to make up for it.
