Salmon and Wild Rice Cakes
You guys. I am in the midst of an intense week of toddler-watching (we are caring for two extra little cuties this week while their parents are on vacay), so I have about 10 minutes to say my peace about these salmon cakes. Let’s cut to the chase: 1. They’re a great use of leftovers. […]

Gyoza Pan-Fried Dumplings
I don’t know if you noticed, but I don’t make much Asian food around here (remember Project Food Blog?).
