Grilling & Cooking

Most people who follow me on social media know I love to cook — you’ll often catch me posting under the hashtag #AccountantsWhoCook. I’ve always been passionate about exploring food from my home state of Texas, especially Tex-Mex flavors and traditional Southern dishes. I’m equally fascinated by Italian cooking, particularly the cuisine of Abruzzo, the region where my family’s roots run deep.

For the last 20 years, I’ve been sharing my culinary adventures on my recipe blog, Our Austintatious Life. There, you’ll find everything from classic family recipes to my latest food experiments — plus plenty of fun food facts, cool cooking tips, and mouthwatering photos along the way.

Here’s a taste of what I’ve been cooking recently:
