Pico de Gallo means “rooster’s beak”, but I have no idea what beaks have to do with this recipe. Maybe it’s because it looks like food a bird would peck at or has pecked over? Who knows? The colors of pico de gallo pay homage to the Mexican flag. So it makes sense that this…

French Fries with Rosemary and Lemon Aioli
Aioli is quite similar to mayonnaise, but this version is heavy on garlic and lemon flavors. A dip for crisp and fluffy french fries, it’s a recipe you need to know.
Buffalo Wing Platter with Blue Cheese Dip
I’m going to give it to you straight: the only reason I care about the big game is because it means food. Baseball is my favorite sport, followed very closely by soccer. Football is a sport I don’t think I’ll ever understand, nor do I care to. Food, though? Food is something I care a great…
Bacon-Bourbon Jam Charcuterie Boards
This Bacon-Bourbon Jam recipe is a sponsored post brought to you by CuttingBoard.com.

Amba: Pickled Mango Chutney (Vegetarian and Vegan)
Look at it. That bright orange Amba sitting innocently in that mason jar is the stuff dreams are made of. This pickled-salted-fermented sauce is something that shouldn’t make sense but, clearly, it does. It’s the drunk uncle at the family reunion who you should avoid, but can’t. His stories are too good to walk away from….
Middle Eastern Hummus Recipe
Has someone ever said something about you that made you think, “What the hell?!?!” My soldier did that to me the other day. I stared at him for a good five minutes thinking about whether I should cuss him out, then I remembered, “Jesus is watching.” So I chilled. But I cussed him out in my…
Tahini Sauce in Five Minutes (or Less)
This Tahini Sauce really only takes five minutes to create. Like, I’m not even lying. I mean, not that I usually lie about prep times. That’s not what I do. It’s just so simple and quick, that reading this will take longer than making it. But, I know you’ll still read this because you and I?…
