gratitude: day 10

Today, I'm grateful for:

this blog.

it was started by two cute young moms 

who have a passion for cooking.

now it's wildly popular

i've had a couple of friends recommend it to me.

the reason i'm grateful for our best bites:

it's got me cooking up a storm lately.

each recipe on the blog includes a tutorial 

full of beautiful pictures.

many of the recipes are adaptations of others that they like.

every one that i have tried 

has been easy and it turned out yum.

in the past three weeks i've made:

creamy chicken taquitos (guilt-free: baked, not fried.)

the chipotle chocolate chili (yes! there's chocolate in it!)

crumb-topped apple pie 

rockin' italian-style meatloaf

beef tacos

lemon herb zucchini fettuccine

spinach and feta pasta 

quick and easy herb-butter penne with salmon

and

smokey bean soup with ham and bacon

are you hungry yet?

oh, and they have published a cookbook, too

maybe you can ask santa for one

if you try any of the recipes, come back and let me know how you liked it!
