Can you say CINCO DE MA-YUM!!!! It's Cinco de Mayo week and I've got a great new recipe to try! Love me some salsa (yes, I judge tex-mex joints based on their salsa!) and I apparently have been missing out on the whole 'add avocado chunks to your salsa' thing.

And it's so easy to through together with a fabulous homemade Asian sauce. And...freezer friendly too! Love me a beef roast that can go freezer to slow cooker in just a … [Read more...]
