Sweet and sour sloppy joes

And to think I once thought Sloppy Joes could never be classy.  Psssssssssh, you guys these are so classy they should be featured in Anchor Man 2. Should I send a batch down to San Diego? It turns out when you mix together green onions, a little soy sauce, ginger, tomato paste, brown sugar, and grass-fed ground beef  you’re in for the tastiest, Asian inspired sandwich EVER. I say sandwich because I feel like Sloppy Joe has a negative connotation? No? Ok, Sloppy Joe it is.

If you’re like me and think Sloppy Joes are kindaaaaa gross, think again. This. recipe. will. blow. your. mind. And by mind I mean tastebuds.

Pineapple Mango Salsa

Welp, this recipe would’ve been perfect for your Cinco de Mayo festivities, but here I am posting it on Ocho de Mayo. Oops. But hey, it’s salsa season so you’re going to want to make this every. single. day. until summer is over. You’re welcome. By the way, did anyone else notice how insanely cheap avocados get the week leading up to cinco de mayo? I wish they’d freeze well, I would’ve stocked up for the rest of the YEAR. I paid 49 cents per avocado. WHAT? Yeah, forty nine freaking cents you guys. I felt like it was the black friday of avocado shopping.  I don’t really get why we are ripped off the rest of the year paying triple that, but  whatever. I do it. You win grocery store, you win.

Simple Coconut Rice

  Hi, I’m Dionna and I’m a rice addict. Empty calories, empty calories, empty calories. I don’t care though. This isn’t even (gasp!) brown rice, but again, I don’t care. Sometimes I just need pillowy, starchy, jasmine white rice seasoned to my liking. And this coconut rice hit. the. spot. Tweet Pin It

  Spring, meet Asparagus. Here in California, these yummy little green stalks come in to season right around March, and there are ENDLESS recipes to experiment with.
