Spring Recipe: My Favorite Chopped Salad

This is honestly my favorite salad ever.  Packed with fresh veggies, healthy, crispy, delicious.  I’ve said this many times before, if you can boil water and have the patience to chop a shitload of vegetables, you can make this salad (or a variation of it).

Spicy Quinoa & Lentil Salad

Ever since I found quinoa at one of my favorites dietéticas, I’ve been cooking it like madness.  With the inspiration of the NYTimes recipe for spicy quinoa, cucumber and tomato salad, I thought I’d try my own version.

Ranch Dressing found in Buenos Aires!

Posted on May 24, 2010 6 Comments

Hellz no!  As sad and pathetic as it seems, I dream about shopping in an  American supermarket… oh, the inappropriate things I would do for just one […]
