I've been dreaming of this sandwich combination for quite some time, and now I have finally bit the bullet and made them. About time! Three delicious components equal one delicious Mexican inspired sandwich. Each component was solid on its own, but put together, they were mind blowing. The spicy chicken is slow cooked in salsa all day, so it...

We may have thought that watermelon, feta, mint salad was the best way to eat watermelon, but it's definitely not. Actually it's with tequila and Cointreau in the form of a margarita. We used the leftover watermelon from the salad to make margaritas the following evening. The watermelon is actually pretty subtle in this recipe and refreshing for...

I really enjoyed these black bean and sweet potato tacos on freshly made corn tortillas with queso fresco, sour cream, and pico de gallo. Dustin says they were good, but not as good as any taco with meat and claims he could never be a vegetarian. I would definitely opt for these tacos over many of the meat tacos I've had, so I guess this is one...

The Game of Thrones finale last weekend was less than epic. However, our weekly feast before the show made up for the lackluster episode. Basically we made a margarita in a large plastic Ziplock bag— lime juice, orange juice, tequila, triple sec, agave syrup, and salt— and let our fish (cod) marinate in it for about 30 minutes before grilling...

These beer glazed fish tacos were the inspiration for this healthy fish taco dish. We obviously couldn't use a local Texas beer, so we improvised with what we could find— a mango beer that we thought would go well with a citrus salsa. For a side, we ate sweet potato chips and Trader Joe's Reduced Guilt chunky guacamole, which is made with Greek...

Halibut dinner number two was another delicious one. I think halibut goes well with just about everything, including a delicious corn and black bean salsa that we put on top. To make the salsa, combine 1/2 of a large, diced red onion, with 1 fresh tomato, 1 can of diced tomatoes with jalapeño and cilantro, 1/2 can of drained black beans, a...

When I described this meal to a coworker, all I got was, "So, I can basically go to Chipotle and get that." Yeah, Mark, you can go to Chipotle and get this amazing homemade creation that fulfills every Mexican craving inside your soul, longing for that Tex-Mex flavor. Taco bowls fall into that category of 'never would have made before Erin.'...

Sorry if you accidentally read this yesterday morning. Scheduling error :) I without a doubt have married the sweetest boy in the world. This meal had to be made on a certain day, the day I bought the mussels, to ensure their freshness and quality, but by the time dinner came rolling around I really did not feel like cooking at all. I had gone...

We've made beef fajitas in the past, but we've yet to try recreate one of our often-weekly occurrences back home, Pappasito's chicken fajitas. Until now. Yes, this entire spread of food was just for the two of us, but when you do fajitas you have to go all out. We had chips and guacamole, salsa, refried beans, tortillas, garlic butter, Jack...

I honestly can't remember the last time I had empanadas before these babies, but I definitely will not be letting myself go that long without eating them again. Anything wrapped in what is essentially pie dough gets thumbs up in my book. No where near as flaky as fried empanadas, these baked empanadas have their own unique texture and are...
