This salad was a big hit at the Superbowl party I brought it to last weekend. It is technically a salad, but a lot of us ate it like a dip with tortilla chips instead. I ate mine over a little mound of crushed chips. The chips add a nice crunch and saltiness. The flavors in this [...]

 Print This PostThis past weekend was one of the best I’ve had in quite a long time. During our time in Waco we met some of our very best friends. There’s something about being in the trenches together that brings people closer than they would have been otherwise, and this is what I have Baylor law school [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostLast week I was greeted at 8am with a bag of fresh vegetables from one of my co-workers. There were beautiful red cherry tomatoes, a couple of bright green jalapeños and the biggest zucchini I had ever seen! My first thought was zucchini bread. I love how moist and wonderful zucchini bread is, and I [...] By CarrieZ |

Summer rolls are one of those things that seems so daunting that most people, or maybe just me, do not even want to attempt to make them at home. Why spend [...] By CarrieZ |

One of the others has zero frills, and the third favorite is chock full of goodies. You have to prepare yourself for that one. The [...] By CarrieZ |

Last week, I found myself rummaging in my pantry and cabinets for something to bake. I found some cranberries and a bag of pecans. So, the [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostHappy Valentine’s Day! What better way to celebrate than with big pink plastic lollipop lips? Valentine’s weekend was great. Our good friends from law school made the trip to Amarillo to spend the weekend. We began Saturday with pastries from The Village Bakery. After breakfast we headed out to Palo Duro Canyon for a hike.

Print This PostThe origins of this hor d’oeuvre are quite interesting. I am usually very good about not only writing down a detailed grocery list, but also double checking on amounts and types of ingredients I need before going grocery shopping. This particular Saturday morning I walked in to HEB on the cell phone and spent the [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThis is my first month with the Daring Bakers and I am a day late in posting…hopefully I will not be kicked out (fingers crossed)! I have to admit that I wasn’t too thrilled that my inaugural challenge would be vegan crackers. Anyway, I warmed up to the cracker idea since it would be something [...] |
