Pasta Rings with Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Bacon

Pasta Rings with Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Bacon / Bev Cooks

This is your second chance in life. And it involves carbs and bacon. And brussels sprouts, which is green, so it’s basically a salad. Meals like this govern my life. Approachable enough for a weeknight, but disguised as a pretentious, laborious weekend undertaking that makes you stabby. It’s quite simple really! And you can juggle […]

Salsa Verde Pork-Stuffed Poblano Peppers

Salsa Verde Pork-Stuffed Poblano Peppers / Bev Cooks

…Covered in cheese. I forgot to mention that. They’re covered in a fat snuggle blanket of bubbly cheese. I’m completely dying over these stuffed peppers. Dying. If I could dance around in a circle and howl at the moon in a fit of BANANAS BEGGING, I’d so do it. They deserve it. However! I will […]
