** GIVEAWAY ALERT ** April is Mint Julep Month, and to honor this southern classic I will give away two silver-plated mint julep cups (NOTE: they are not the ones in the photo). To enter is easy: 1. Tag a friend 2. Follow @texaztaste 3. Enter as many times as you like I will pick a winner at random on Saturday, April 4th. I can ship anywhere in the 48 contiguous US states. How to make a mint julep: Muddle mint leaves in a julep cup with 1/2 ounce simple syrup. Add 2 ounces of bourbon, mix and fill with crushed ice. Garnish with mint leaves. Good luck! #mintjulep #mintjulepcocktails #derbycocktails #mintjulepmonth #classiccocktail #happyhourtime #bourboncocktails #cocktailgram #kentuckyderbyparty #mintjuleps

What do you do with overripe bananas? Make banana bread, and Minimalist Baker is my go-to for great options such as vegan and gluten free. I am also experimenting with different angles...which one you you prefer? 45 degree or overhead? #foodtography #bananabread #foodphotography #minimalistbaker #vegan #stayathome #bakingathome #quarantinebaking #azcooks #azfoodie

Remember the chicken I roasted last week? Over the weekend, I took all the remaining meat from the bones and made Barefoot Contessa's Chicken Tortilla Soup (recipe below) and then made stock from the bones. What do you like to make with your left over roast chicken? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chicken Tortilla Soup In a large pot, heat 3 T grapeseed oil and add diced onions, celery and carrots (these days don't worry about quantity...just use what you have on hand). Add minced garlic and a jalapeño or other chili (or don't). Add 28 oz. can tomato sauce or whole tomatoes in puree and 2 quarts (liters) of water or broth. Add 1 t. cumin, 1 t. ground coriander, 6-7 corn tortillas (torn or cut into pieces) and chopped cilantro. Bring to a boil then simmer for 30 minutes. Add chicken to pot at the end and garnish with what makes you happy! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My Intro to Culinary Arts teacher, the late great Glenn Humphrey, always encouraged us to use recipes as a guide, not as gospel (not withstanding baking), so play around with what you have and lmk how it goes! #azfoodie #stayathome #tortillasoup #mexicanchickensoup #feedfeed #myphx #thrillist #buzzfeedfood #soup #comfortfood @lifecreated

Many of our valley’s trails are busy these days, like Camelback’s Echo Canyon, so it is best to hit them at dawn to avoid the crowds! #camelbackmountain #hikingarizona #arizonahiking #arizonaisbeautiful #coronavirusexercise
