How to Throw an Epic DIY Taco Bar Party + Guacamole Recipe

May 4, 2017 By Natasha Leave a Comment

Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner, like literally tomorrow! I created a simple and delicious guacamole recipe that you can make for your gathering, plus a fun menu for an epic DIY taco bar party!

You're gonna want these tips and recipes for your next diy taco bar party! Perfect for gathering with your friends on Cinco de Mayo or any Taco Tuesday during the year!

I don’t know why, but Cinco de Mayo is one of my favorite holidays to have fun with good friends and good food! One of my friends who is from Mexico asked me why us Americans like to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Well, I don’t know about you, but I love the flavors of Mexican food, and any excuse to have a celebration and diy taco bar party with my friends!

And just to clarify, I know that Cinco de Mayo isn’t Independence Day in Mexico. It’s actually the celebration of the battle the Mexican army won against the French army in the state of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

For whatever the reason, Americans celebrate Cinco de Mayo hard AF! (ALLL the tacos!)…

Super Seedy and Nutty Granola

January 8, 2017 By Natasha Leave a Comment

Super Seedy Granola

Seeds, seeds, and more seeds. Chia. Hemp. Watermelon. Flax. And nuts, nuts, and more nuts. Almonds. Cashews. Pistachios. Walnuts. That’s what you’ll find in this super seedy and nutty granola! I wanted to throw together an oatmeal-free granola, that was low in carbs, and high in healthy fats with a good amount of protein. Even though oatmeal is technically gluten free since it’s just rolled oats, they are typically processed on the same equipment as the gluten grains and therefore cross contaminated. I know you can find certified gluten free brands on the market as well, but I just wanted to eliminate them altogether….

Gluten Free Carrot Cake Waffles

Gluten Free Carrot Cake Waffles

gluten-free-carrot-cake-waffles This recipe is in partnership with Simple Mills. All opinions are my own!

Waffles. Who doesn’t love them?

I love a good waffle from time to time, but let’s be real for a minute… I don’t bake very well. And by bake, I mean make something from scratch that requires sciency stuff to happen. This leaves me few options when looking for a pancake/waffle mix at the store because I really don’t do great with all the gluten free starches and flours in most of them. I was super excited when I came across Simple Mills brand of mixed because they are super clean and in addition to being gluten free, they are also grain free using almond and coconut flours!…

Superfood Hot Chocolate Three Ways

Superfood Hot Chocolate Three Ways

superfood-hot-chocolate

I’ve always been a chocolate lover, but as I’ve gotten older and my palate has changed, I’ve leaned less toward the super sweet milk chocolate and more toward the rich, decadent, dark chocolate. I look for chocolate with a minimum of 70% cacao, very little added sugars and junk. My chocolate of choice is 85% cacao. But I digress. This post is not really about chocolate bars at all. It’s about a super creamy, hot cuppa chocolate, with superfood powers. None of that artificial flavor, GMO, corn syrupy junk in the store. Ew….

Jalapeno Cranberry Salsa

Jalapeno Cranberry Salsa

jalapeno-cranberry-salsa

This jalapeno cranberry salsa was such a huge hit at our Thanksgiving dinner this year, that we’re making again for Christmas. I wasn’t able to get my shit together until now to post this recipe for you guys, but I guess better late than never, yeah?

This versatile salsa is great as an appetizer served with your favorite cheese spread and chips or crackers. My mom makes her famous cheese platter with dried fruit, ALL the cheeses- think goat cheese, brie, cream cheese, etc, persimmons, and nuts. We also served it alongside the cooked cranberry sauce as another option with the roasted turkey, and it was amaze! I wonder how it would be with some pork tenderloins??…

Bourbon Baked Chicken Thighs

Bourbon Baked Chicken Thighs

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: Thighs > Boobs. Chicken thighs, come on you guys! Okay, okay… I love some crispy chicken skin and these bourbon baked chicken thighs are delish! You’ll need a few hours of marinade time, so plan ahead and make sure you have everything you’ll need. You may even want to throw these bad boys in the marinade before you leave for work, so when you get home, you’ll have a killer dinner on the table in about 30 minutes!…

Smoky Mexican Stuffed Bell Peppers

Smoky Mexican Stuffed Bell Peppers

smoky-mexican-stuffed-bell-peppers

I’m pretty sure I could live off Mexican-themed food forever. I mean, anything that I can put cilantro and avocado on wins! If you’ve followed me on Instagram, you will see just how much I eat avocados and cilantro. One of my husband’s friends follows me on Insta and asked him what our avocado budget was! Anyway, these smoky mexican stuffed bell peppers are a perfect meal for anytime of the year. Enjoy these with a side of avocado or guacamole and a side salad for a complete low carb meal!…
