It’s confession time. I have this slight, shall we say, addiction. To beer-battered fish tacos topped with spicy, creamy chipotle aïoli and crunchy red cabbage slaw. This enslavement rears its ugly head at the most inopportune of times, often settling for a chain Tex-Mex joint down the street, where, I don’t care what you say,…
Main Course
Avocado Alfredo Pasta [Dairy-Free]
As most of you know, this blog used to be either the Stylist Quo or the Laidback Vegan. I realized that having two separate recipe blogs was way too much extra effort, and that eating mostly vegan and healthy.. but sometimes indulgent were not mutually exclusive!
