You may have noticed that I’ve been on this sweet and spicy kick lately. I used to be one of those anti-spicy people, but have slowly started enjoying it in the right situations. Pretty sure I have Nashville hot chicken to blame for that. When I was asked to toss in a margarita recipe for…

Grilled S’mores Pound Cake
This post is sponsored by Kingsford but the content and opinions expressed here are my own. Ohhhh, grilling! That smell. The char flavor. The sizzzzzle. There is something so primal and fundamental to cooking over an open flame. When the warmer days roll in, it’s game on for the grill. Although I’ve been known to…
Tequila Glazed Peach Tart
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Altos Tequila. All opinions are 100% mine. BBQ season! There’s really nothing like grilling out, cooking dinner and having drinks with friends after a long day or to kick off the weekend. Something that I’ve noticed from the countless backyard invites has been the…
Jalapeno Peach Tequila Pops
Here we are, y’all. Mid-summer. Weekends at the lake, failed diets, patio parties with friends. It’s all in full swing and I’m not going to do anything to slow down the pace. Put those crazy college tequila memories aside. I’m going to show you my favorite frozen infusion for all of my summer shindigs. We’re…
Dragon Fruit Mojito
Do you ever go out to a restaurant or event and try a dish or drink that you just have to recreate at home? I find myself in that situation pretty often. It’s a great excuse to have an extra nightcap. You kn0w… for research sake. After tasting a unique margarita while browsing around Nashville in…

It’s ridiculous how quickly you can whip together some delicious tacos and be back on the couch ready to pass out in just minutes. Recently,…

Homegrown Tomato Salsa
I’m that guy that visits every Mexican restaurant in town to test the margarita and salsa waters. If it doesn’t pass the good chips and salsa test, vámanos! Having just returned from Mexico, I was on a salsa kick. I have a few favorite restaurants here in Nashville that pass my salsalitmus test, but…
5 Minute Flour Tortillas
There isn’t much that is better than taco night at home…. unless you also make your own tortillas! I discovered how ridiculously easy these are to make when I had a midnight taco craving and lacked the get-up-and-go to make a TB run (and that means a lot… I do love a cheesy gordita crunch!)….
Homemade Guacamole + Writing Process Tour
There are a million wonderful ways to eat avocado. I have recently been addicted to avocado on toast in the mornings, my weekly sushi night at home is always greeted with avocado and I even use it as a substitute for butter in baking. Everything is better with a bit of ‘cado in it! On…
