Chocolate chip cookies made with two types of chocolate chips will always trump single chocolate chip cookies. You need this cookie recipe in your life. I’m not good at Christmas Lists.

Chocolate jimmy sandwiches for Mother’s Day. I wasn’t sure how to cover this topic here on Pass the Sushi.

Simple turkey and brie sandwiches. Because we have all had (and still have) those, “there’s no time or desire to make a dinner” nights. “You don’t look like a food blogger.” I can’t be the only one who’s heard that oh, 10,000 times. I’m shocked by how many people say this to me on a…

(The timing of this venison tacos post is somewhat ironic, only because we are in the process of making new friends (woot!) who are vegetarians, so I am learning a lot about it. This post is in no way meant to offend vegetarians.) If you have any aversion to wild game or are lacking a…
Quesadillas, stuffed with roasted pork, black beans, cheese and rice. It’s a quick, inexpensive dinner that keeps you full. Emphasis on inexpensive. Because not much else is cheap these days.
