A year or two ago I went over to a friend’s house for dinner and we made this recipe. I LOVED it. But of course I knew I would. I love mangoes, black beans, brown rice and seared tofu. A no-brainer. The recipe comes from Peter Berley’s “Fresh Food Fast” which […]
Yes, you read it right… vegan!
I’ve been really conflicted about meat these days. Not because of animal cruelty or anything like that but more for health reasons. And the more I read about how animals are fed and treated prior to slaughter the more I get freaked out. No matter […]

If you do a quick search on this site with the term “lahey” you’ll come across my previous attempts with the bread. My goal […]

Right now I’m going through a huge Mexican phase. All I want is delicious, incredible, and REAL-ish mexican. No Taco Bell no over-stuffed Tex-Mex burritos. I want the real thing.
