It's steaming hot outside. We're now entering the worst part of summer: Post-July-Fourth, sweat-your-makeup off, unwavering sunlight summer days.I've kept the outdoor activities to a minimum the last two weeks. If you catch me outside, it's usually well past when the sun went down or on the cusp of dusk. You wouldn't catch me outside… Continue reading Chopped Supreme Taco Salad

Roasted Garlic Guacamole
There are good guacamoles in the world and there are bad ones. Really bad ones. When I'm at a restaurant, I can always tell when the guacamole isn't freshly made. It's got that too-smooth look, and that plastic-y taste. Ew. No thank you. When it comes to fresh guacamole, I have no qualms with it… Continue reading Roasted Garlic Guacamole

Carnitas Bowls with Chimichurri
I haven't been cooking much with pork lately and decided I needed to change that. You can only have chicken or turkey every day of the week for so long before you get really bored with it. Seafood is expensive, and a once-or-twice a month type purchase. I'm trying to cut down on the red… Continue reading Carnitas Bowls with Chimichurri
Mexican Cabbage Roll Soup
Soup's on in the Welcher household. Too bad it's 60 degrees outside. Our soup weather lingers somewhere between two days and a week, usually in January or February. Sure, we'll get cold for a few days after that---but nothing like normal winter forecasts for people living north of the Mason-Dixon line. I'll still eat a… Continue reading Mexican Cabbage Roll Soup
