This turned out so good! I want to cook all my fish this way forever! I made major changes to the following recipe but I think this is a good recipe as is. I just didn’t have these things and used what I had on hand. The main thing to remember is how to cut the parchment, how to fold…

Butternut Squash Soup with Cider Cream
This is a recipe I have made a few times. It makes the house smell like Thanksgiving! Although lately I can’t seem to recreate the soup I made the first time. I don’t know what I did differently about the recipe. I have a feeling it has to do with the quality of the chicken stock. I bought a brand…

I didn’t have the perfect ingredients but I had some coconut curry sauce that I made for…
Spicy Sweet Potato, Black Bean Burgers with Avocado-Cilantro Crema
I love a good veggie burger! As I was trolling the internet for interesting recipes I came across this one from ambitiouskitchen.com. It looked interesting and wanted to try it out. I don’t need my veggie patties to look like real hamburger. I will eat a real hamburger for that. I love a good Shake Shack, Five Guys or…
