A look into the future.....


I'm thrilled to announce that my new website is almost ready! It's been a non-stop journey to build this new online home for you all. What started as a simple desire to update my site and have my own URL quickly turned into a much larger project. I searched tirelessly for site templates that met my needs and budget, but nothing quite fit. Since this is primarily a hobby, I couldn't justify spending hundreds of dollars on a personal site.


So, embracing my inner overachiever, I decided to build it myself. Please know that I have no formal training in web design – and frankly, I'm not sure I want any! I've spent countless hours watching video tutorials, and while I often felt like the awkward kid in the back of the class, I've learned just enough to create a site I hope you'll enjoy. While I anticipate making small tweaks over the coming months, I am 100% satisfied with the outcome.


The site should be ready for you to explore in about a week or two. I'll be redirecting my old Blogger site address to the new URL. In the meantime, please visit my new site at www.mirandaskitchenadventures.com and sign up to be alerted when it's officially live and when I publish new posts. Get ready for some delicious new recipes soon!

Cantina Laredo's Valentine's Day Menu & A Giveaway!! WINNER ANNOUNCED

Image
As a proud new member of the Nashville Food Bloggers , I was excited to be invited to a special preview of Cantina Laredo's Valentine's Day menu this past Monday. It was my first time visiting the restaurant, and I was impressed by its vibrant and sophisticated atmosphere, which I'd describe as "Modern" Mexican. Cantina Laredo offers two "Tres Course" menus, both reasonably priced at $17.99 per person. Their regular dinner menu features enticing dishes such as Enchiladas De Avocado (avocado and artichoke enchiladas with tomatillo sauce over spinach) and Enchiladas De CANGREjO (lump crab enchiladas with spicy chili de arbol cream sauce on vinaigrette-marinated vegetables). I'm already looking forward to trying the TACOS DE CARNITAS (slow-roasted pork with chipotle wine sauce) on my next visit—yum! I had the pleasure of meeting both the General Manager, Matt Langston, and the Executive Chef, Josh Santiago. Their passion for the restaurant and its o...

Celebrating its one-month blogaversary, this blog has exceeded all expectations! With 1300 page views, a picture featured on FoodGawker, and a Facebook page boasting 50 likes, it's been an incredible journey. I'm so grateful to all my friends and supporters, especially my husband Gabe, for their patience and understanding. While this process has been rewarding, it hasn't been without its stresses. I truly hope you're enjoying the content and will continue to follow along. My aim is to inspire you to get into the kitchen and explore new culinary adventures!

However, in my ongoing effort to incorporate more homemade ...

Blood Orange Margaritas

Flipping through social media yesterday, I was inundated with mouth-watering images of margaritas for National Margarita Day. Naturally, I had to have one! I wanted to try a new flavor, and when I stumbled upon this recipe from Confections of a Foodie Bride's blog, I knew it was the one. I've only had blood oranges a few times, but since they're in season and readily available, it was a no-brainer. They completely surpassed my expectations – so good, and her recipe made the perfect two margaritas. Next year, I'm definitely setting a calendar reminder for National Margarita Day!
