How was your week, friends? It was a busy one over here and now it’s time for a little relaxation and a lot of good food. I’ve done basically zero cooking in the last week because of my crazy work schedule and so the first thing I’m doing tomorrow is heading to the grocery store to stock up on ingredients to get back into the kitchen. I’m hungry and feeling so inspired by all of the goodness shared on the internet lately. Here are a few of my favorites for this week’s Good Food Reads. Enjoy!

Avocado, Proscuitto and Egg Sandwiches. Otherwise known as: my perfect breakfast….

Chicken Tortilla Soup

February 7, 2017 By Lane 4 Comments

Yep, still winter here in Minneapolis. Although we don’t have much snow and our temperatures are well above zero (which is actually balmy for this time of year) it is definitely still winter. And this is the time of winter that I start going just a little crazy, dreaming about sunshine and warmer weather. I do have a vacation coming up pretty soon, but in the meantime I’m just going to have make do with this Chicken Tortilla Soup. Light yet packed with flavor, this soup will bring you just a little piece of summer….

Avocado Toast with Bacon and Sriracha

So goodness knows this blog isn’t political-after all everyone needs to eat no matter what your political leaning. And we love all of our friends and viewers regardless. But that’s not to say that Holly and I don’t have very strong views and opinions (and luckily we agree). The last few months have made it very clear that much needs to be done to bring us together as a country and to heal us as a nation. The big disagreement seems to be in exactly how to do this. We need to find common ground and we may need to start small. Truly though, I think we can all agree that anything that limits our access to avocados is a bad plan. A bad plan indeed. This Avocado Toast with Bacon and Sriracha will show you just how bad of a plan……

Pulled Pork Sopes

September 30, 2016 By Lane 3 Comments

I learned about a new food this weekend and I thought it only fair to share it with you! (Especially since I was thinking: Where have you been all of my life?). I had made my favorite sauce in the whole wide world (Cilantro Lime sauce, in case you missed the post) and was looking for something special to do with it. Something my entire family would like. Something that wasn’t my “same old”. I found it in Pulled Pork Sopes, and we’ll be making it many more times in the coming months….

Cabin Burgers

July 18, 2016 By Lane 23 Comments

I tried to come up with a catchier name than Cabin Burgers, I really did. But the truth of the matter is, this is the meal that the kids beg for when we head to the cabin, and thus they have always been called “Cabin Burgers”. The name just stuck, boring or not. And although the name may be boring, this burger is anything but……

Southwest Salad with Cilantro Chipotle Dressing

May 23, 2016 By Lane 11 Comments

A weekend at the cabin never fails to reinvigorate me. It’s always nice to spend time with those I love the most without the constant interruption of all of our busy schedules. A part of that reinvigoration is always finding ways to nourish my soul…and my body. So with that said, I was really in the mood for some fresh food this weekend. Southwest Salad with Cilantro Chipotle Dressing fit that bill nicely!…
