Radicchio, Caramelized Onion & Basil Pizza by Brianna Vereker

Radicchio, Caramelized Onion & Basil PizzaJune 7, 2011 by BriannaI’m often guilty of picking out the large pieces of radicchio in my mixed greens salad and putting them on Dustin’s plate for him to enjoy.

Chorizo-Rice Stuffed Zucchini Boats with Queso Fresco by Brianna Vereker

Chorizo-Rice Stuffed Zucchini Boats with Queso FrescoMay 23, 2011 by BriannaThe first zucchini of the season is here!

Camarones a la Diabla by Brianna Vereker

Camarones a la DiablaMay 11, 2011 by BriannaAmong many things, my friend Miriam and I share an affinity for making lists, browsing the store Anthropologie, and putting Sriracha on everything (except popcorn; we tried that; too soggy).

Caramelized Onion Dip

Caramelized Onion Dip by Brianna Vereker

Caramelized Onion DipMay 5, 2011 by BriannaRemember the onion dip seasoning packet that you ripped open and mixed with a container of sour cream?
