Cherry Salsa

For me, cherries are an integral part of the warmer months and no summer would be complete without them. So I’m always looking for ways to incorporate these ruby-esque little gems into new dishes.
shrimp ceviche
traditionally, ceviche is “cooked” in an acid such as lime juice. this method is a lot quicker though and just as yummy!
- 1/2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
- cilantro
- juice of 1 lime
- 1 small jalapeno, minced (seeded if you don’t like too much heat)
- 2 tbs red onion, minced
- juice of 1/2 orange
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- salt and pepper
put a pot of salted water on to boil and toss in your shrimp, allow them to boil for about 2 -3 minutes or just until pink being careful not to over cook. no one likes rubbery shrimp! transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
chop em up, add to a bowl with the rest of your ingredients and toss to combine. simple as that!
the taco kick continues
tacos two ways
being the greedy pig that i am, i couldn’t decide if i wanted steak tacos or fish tacos. so, i made both!
you know how i (summer) roll
i’ve said this a million times but i could eat summer rolls every. single. day.
sometimes take out is more trouble than it’s worth though so last night i decided to make my own! it’s really quite simple actually. there’s just some prep involved but don’t let that deter you. it’s totally worth it in the end!
Cuban Black Bean Dip

Although the black beans got top billing, the olives are really key here. They add a surprising pop of saltiness that pairs well with the richness of the beans.
