Vegetarian Loaded Nachos

One of the most common questions people ask about this blog is how I decide what to make. The answer is as simple as "whatever I feel like eating at the moment (and is within my capabilities to cook)". The execution of those whimsies is another story. A lot of posts sit perpetually unpublished because I'm unhappy with one thing or another, sometimes I try to make a more creative variation on a classic dish and by the time the recipe is perfected, I don't want to eat it anymore. But there's always some success among the many attempts and this post is a great example of when the process works!

I've been having some really strange food obsessions lately, with special emphasis on nachos, banana shakes, and red meat, none of which are foods that I have ever in my life craved or sought out with such fervor until the last few weeks, separately of course (although...steak nachos with a side of banana shake? Sign me up). Today's recipe is a manifestation of the nacho obsession, which started on super bowl sunday and has yet to show signs of diminishing. They're loaded with cheese and all the best veggie toppings for a fun snack or meal. I decided to go sans meat to give them a fresher, lighter vibe, but you can alter them to your heart's content since nachos don't really need a recipe. They're just so goshdang colorful and delicious that I had to share. Hope you guys enjoy.

Mexican Street Corn

Things happening as of late: I graduated! This fun and cheeky website I built, while building this other website with some awesome classmates. Interviews and more interviews. A Swedish midsummer's festival. My first Yankees game! A jazz show at Village Vanguard. So much grilling at the park. Dim sum with old friends. A breakfast sandwich crawl and fried chicken club hosted by the one and only, Donny. And of course the Saveur celebrations (where I got to meet so many amazing people: Sam, Cynthia, Renee, Brooke, Nik, Phi, Alana, Molly, Stephanie, Sherrie, Michelle, Elizabeth, Yossy, Sydney—Hi guys!).

Things not happening as of late: Calling my family enough. Responding to emails (sorry everyone!). Spending time with Phillip. Taking O&O for their annual vet checkup (I promise, soon, dear kitties). Sleeping enough. Eating healthy. Riding my bike like I usually do during the summertime. Going to the beach. And most of all, this blog, or cooking at all for that matter.

But since I graduated, hopefully that means I'll be able to devote more time to the laundry list of things above, so let's start with a post on what is probably my absolute favorite part of summer: sweet corn.

Southwest Salad with Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette

Southwest Salad with Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette | O&O Eats

It's time to get back on the vegetable train. Sometimes I get on these kicks where I just really want to make certain dishes. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your viewpoint) last week the great majority of recipes I was itching to make had meat in them. For example beef noodle soup, a pear and pancetta tart, and a burger, among other things. I'm hoping that this colorful salad has set me back on track.

Corn Chowder with Roasted Poblanos + The Rockaways

Corn Chowder with Roasted Poblanos | O&O Eats

I biked to The Rockaways on Memorial Day, it was a glorious way to start the unofficial summer season. The boy and I biked from our apartment in Cobble Hill to the Q train, then took that to Sheepshead Bay and proceeded to bike to the beach from there. We met up with a few friends and spent some time in the sun and sand. The water was still ice cold, so maybe I'll go swimming for real next month when it is officially summer.
