Not Just Dessert: 6 Savory Pies to Try Now
Posted by Jessica G. |
Some people are born with a sweet tooth, while others are into the savory scene. I’m more of the latter, so when I was tasked with researching the world of savory pies, I was all over it.
Savory pies are great for many reasons. They’re relatively easy to make. After a little bit of elbow grease, you’ve got a complete dinner (or brunch or lunch) in a pie plate. Just throw a pile of greens on the side and you’re set! Another great thing about savory pies is you can put… Read more »

This idea came to me after another unfortunate ‘I-left-the-beer-in-the freezer-too-long’ incident a couple weekends ago. You know what I’m talking about… you open the freezer door and yell a few expletives as an ice tear rolls down a frozen solid bottle of beer (and probably down your cheek, too).

I might be aging myself here, but I remember when “clean” referred to how I kept my apartment or office cubicle. Now, it seems, clean has come to mean embracing a healthy lifestyle.
