If you don’t mind a lot of slicing, this is a great recipe! It has lots of different flavors, textures and spice that combine so satisfyingly on the palate.
On our way out of Colorado, I agreed to join Rusty for one more adventure and attempt to summit Mount Elbert with him. But, the prospect of climbing the Rockies’ highest peak was daunting, to say the least.
We love to make hummus on the road. It’s easy and cheap and better than store-bought. But it’s Fall now and Ren saw a recipe for pumpkin hummus so we decided to make it with sweet potatoes instead.
We love Panera’s soups, but we don’t order this one often because it’s got so many calories. But after we climbed Mt. Elbert, Colorado’s highest peak, we decided to splurge! Here’s a good copycat recipe for their famous broccoli cheddar soup.
One of the things we love about vanlife is the ability to be spontaneous and adjust our plans when a novel adventure comes our way.
People often ask us how we decide on our next adventure. Usually, it’s a hike, but not always. We love our history, so sometimes it’s a day (or more) spent at a museum or a battlefield. Sometimes it’s a paddle or exploring a deep spring. But how do we decide?… well, that’s complicated.
We love sushi and we love Poke Bowls, so here’s a recipe that combines the best of both. It’s fresh and light and comes together pretty quickly.
The second half of my Collegiate Loop adventure would take me back south, along the Western Route and cross the Continental Divide several times. I would also travel elevations a thousand feet higher than anything on the Eastern Route, much of it above the tree line and through a truly alpine environment.
We’ve been eating lots of green salads lately, and thought we’d take a detour to pasta and more Asian flavors. A cold soba noodle salad was the answer.
Brasstown Bald is Georgia’s highest peak at 4,784 feet above sea level, and we were eager to hike just about anything once the Covid lockdown eased.
We are Girl Hobo and Rusty (Ren and Troy), two greys who met on the Appalachian Trail. We started a life together, converted a van to travel and hike across the country, and we like to eat well. Now, we’re sharing what we’re learning on the road, and we’d love you to join us!
