  Roasted Tomatillo Cilantro Salsa – $.21 per serving

  by Ande Truman on Aug 01, 2011 | 2 Comments

  One of my new favorite condiments is an incredibly light and fresh salsa made from tomatillos. A tomatillo is a small Mexican green fruit that’s wrapped around a paper-like husk. It’s not sweet, by the way, but tastes similar to green tomatoes with a little kick. You can find these at just about any grocery [...]

  Seared Scallops with Cilantro Tomatillo Chutney & Fennel Carrot Salad – $3.80

  by Ande Truman on Nov 30, 2010 | 3 Comments

  Here’s a nice little ditty for you if you’re a fan of scallops. Scallops aren’t generally the first things that pop in my head when I think “cheap”, but really, if you find them at the right place, they’re very reasonably priced. You could take this recipe and easily turn it into an appetizer, or [...]

  Jicama Cucumber Slaw – $.29

  by Ande Truman on Jul 17, 2010 | 6 Comments

  So I keep hearing about this jicama stuff (pronounced hee-kah-mah I believe) all over the place and I finally decided to get some. I honestly didn’t even know where to start or how to cut it but I could say this experiment went very well. After I decided to make slaw I realized I didn’t [...]

  Paneer & Chickpea Curry – $1.20

  by Ande Truman on May 10, 2010 | 6 Comments

  If you’ve never had paneer, a fresh, mild Indian cheese, you should definitely check it out. It’s solid enough not to melt quickly, but soft enough to give some great texture to a dish like this. Feel free to leave this out and add veggies or meat instead. Oh, by the way, the fresh cilantro [...]

  I’d like to post a more interesting recipe tonight, but you may find this one surprisingly yummy. Since I got a real job, I thought I’d be able to post like crazy on the weekends. Problem is, I don’t want to do ANYTHING on the weekends so I’ve been a little neglectful. My bad. It’s [...]

  Stupid Good Avocado Soup – $.74

  by Ande Truman on Mar 18, 2010 | 1 Comment

  I think if we have food in Heaven, avocados will be there. As well as mangoes and bacon. I had a very random thought this morning: avocado soup. Avocados give amazing texture to anything you put it in, especially if you blend it till smooth, so I figured it’d be perfect for a healthy soup [...]
