Savor Tooth Tiger: Black Bean Burgers With Chipotle Mayo

June 2, 2022 by Allyson Van Lenten

With the current high meat prices and my newly diagnosed high cholesterol, I’m looking to bean burgers to fill my desire of grilling this summer. Do you love burgers but are perhaps flirting with vegetarian options? Look no further than this really simple bean burger with an even simpler sauce.

Savor Tooth Tiger: Easy Refrigerator Pickles

May 4, 2022 by Allyson Van Lenten

Savor Tooth Tiger: My Cheesy Valentine

January 31, 2022 by Allyson Van Lenten

What do we really want for Valentine’s Day? Chocolate? Sure. Flowers? You bet. Ah, but what about a heart-shaped pizza? That’s true love … at least in my world. I made this a few years ago for my pizza-loving husband, and I’m not saying that’s what convinced him to propose but all I’m saying is it didn’t hurt! Go ahead and buy store-bought dough if you must, but this homemade … [Read more...]
