Bottlehouse

Bottlehouse is a fairly recent discovery of mine (like within the last 6 months), and I’m upset I didn’t find this place sooner.

Creamy Pesto Orecchiette

This dish is perfect. Its creamy, salty and warm! This is almost reminiscent of a mac and cheese with that creamy saltiness, but the fancier adult version.

The Flour Box

The Flour Box is a cute little bakery located in Hillamn City. They are a small batch, handmade shop. Getting donuts from this place is like winning the lottery!

Tagliatelle with Bolognese

Sweet Potato + Black Bean Crispy Tacos

These tacos are crispy and amazing and 100% vegetarian! I made these in an air fryer, but you could easily make them by baking them in the oven or frying them in oil on the stovetop! These are filled with sweet potatoes and black beans for a wonderful combination that is slightly sweet. I madeContinue reading “Sweet Potato + Black Bean Crispy Tacos”

Coconut Curry Soup

Perfect for a cold night when you want something warm and semi-healthy! Although I have this labeled as a soup, this is very hearty and thick – almost more of a stew than a soup, but equally delicious. This is packed full of vegetables and flavor. The curry powder adds a subtle flavor, but stillContinue reading “Coconut Curry Soup”
