Smoky Instant Pot Chicken Tinga Tacos

I immediately knew that I was going to order them, very excited for this moment! They were disappointingly bland. Under salted and under spiced....just plain flavorless. BUT I loved the idea. I knew they had … [Read more...]

Healthy Smoked Salmon Sushi Bowls

We even used those bamboo sushi rolling mats that's supposed to make everything easier. Nope, not doing that again. It was a mess. Everything was falling apart. It stressed me out. Probably also the same reason I … [Read more...]
