Chicken and Avocado Spring Roll.
Dinner tonight: a fresh chicken and avocado spring roll. The rice paper gets a quick dip in water and turns soft and slightly chewy. Inside, creamy avocado and tender chicken sit against crisp cucumber, carrot, and lettuce. Then comes the dip, a spicy Sriracha sauce that wakes up every bite.

Chocolate chip protein Pancakes
Sunday brunch had one rule: keep every option on the table. 🥞🍳 Chocolate chip protein pancakes, dusted with powdered sugar, next to three sunny side up eggs. Then came the jelly, the honey and the maple syrup, because why pick one when the jar lineup is right there? The protein stacks up, the

Pupusa stuffed with Black Beans
Today’s hunger had a very specific request: crunch. So I turned the heat up a little higher than usual and let the pupusa get extra crispy. One bite breaks through the golden shell into warm black beans. On top, shredded chicken cooked with bell peppers and onions, homemade salsa, crisp lettuce,

Sourdough, Attempt #2
This one taught me a lot. I let the cold fermentation run too long and added too much water, so the loaf didn’t get the rise I was after. It was still delicious, though. Next time, I’m turning up the oven temperature for a stronger oven spring. Every bake is a lesson. On to attempt #3 .

Black beans | Fried eggs | Plantains
Today’s breakfast: black beans, fried eggs, and plantains, with corn tortillas on the side (they didn’t make it into the photo, but they were there!). 🍳 It was satisfying, delicious, and really hit the spot to start the day. We are a little under the weather, so no queso fresco this time. Onc

Lunch had one job: deliver flavor and nutrition.
I started with a simple carrot and potato soup, then stirred in a can of sardines for a protein and omega-3 boost. A handful of crumbled saltines and a few drops of fresh salsa on top added a light crunch, and it all came together in one comforting bowl. Good food doesn’t have to be complicated.

Tonight’s dinner was pure comfort.
Warm, spiced lentils simmered with potatoes, carrots and tomatoes, served over fluffy basmati rice. On the side, sliced hard boiled eggs topped with fresh green onions for a little extra protein and a bright finish. Simple ingredients, big flavor, and the kind of meal that settles you in at the

Salad first, tacos to finish. 🌮
I sautéed onions and sweet peppers in a pan, then added shredded chicken mixed with salsa and let it all cook down to perfection. It went into warm corn tortillas and got topped with a pinch of salt, diced onions, and fresh cilantro. The result was sweet, savory, and so satisfying. Simple ingred

Taco Tuesday kicked off right with a classic Cobb salad
Fresh lettuce mix, crumbled blue cheese, creamy ranch, cherry tomatoes, chopped chicken, ripe avocado, and half a hard boiled egg, finished with a sprinkle of fleur de sel. Every bite had crunch, creaminess, and a little salty sparkle. Starting with something fresh and satisfying sets the tone f

Tonight’s dinner: deep-dish sourdough pizza.
Instead of marinara, I used a carrot and potato soup as the sauce, topped with baked chicken, mozzarella, Parmesan, and cilantro. The homemade sourdough kept the thick crust light, and we dipped it in a cup of that same soup. Delicious, and not too heavy. Lately I’ve been craving pizza from BJ’s

Three days, three ingredients, one very good loaf. 🍞
I started with a sourdough starter named June, a gift from my friend Mercedes. June gave this bread a wonderful foundation: a soft, tender crumb and real depth of flavor. Making it took three days, and a lot of patience, but flour, water, and salt were all it needed. Every hour of waiting was worth

Authentic flavor doesn’t have to come from a restaurant.
Tonight’s plate: Black Bean & Queso Fresco in Cactus tortilla Quesadillas with sweet plátano, crisp romaine lettuce, and a kick of El Pato. The flavors were bold and authentically Guatemalan. Delicious, delightful, and enjoyable for the whole family. This is proof that this style of food can

Tuesday has become a ritual: fried chicken with a side salad. 

It’s our go-to for being a little naughty while still staying good. Crispy, satisfying, balanced with something fresh. Not every meal has to be perfect to be worth showing up for. Sometimes a consistent tradition does more for you than a strict plan. What’s your weekly ritual meal? Until next

Can’t stop thinking about this 🍔
American hamburger, and sometimes that's all you need. I cooked an Omaha Steaks quarter-pound beef patty, thick and juicy, 100% beef, and cooked it to perfection. A slice of American cheese melted over the top, then crisp lettuce, fresh tomato, and thousand island on a toasted bun. No fries.

Tradition, Refined: A New Protocol for the Humble Hot Dog
There's a reason the hot dog has endured for generations: it's simple, dependable, and shared around the grill. But even tradition leaves room for refinement. Recently, I took Omaha Steaks pork and beef hot dogs and made one small change: a deliberate seasoning blend. I marinated them in
