The crock pot is one of my favorite kitchen appliances, especially in those warm Summer months when you don't want to heat up the house with the stove or oven. This recipe is super simple, tasty, and doesn't have a lot of added fat or calories.
Read moreHEALTHIER EGG SALAD
I've never been a fan of traditional egg salad or plain yellow mustard, but I love eggs and how nutritious they are. So, I set out to create a healthier version of the classic dish, sans the extra fat, calories, and yellow mustard. I hope you enjoy this new classic as much as I do.
Read moreROASTED TOMATO PASTA SALAD
I've never been a big fan of Summer. I'm more of a Winter girl, personally. But, one of the things I have to admit that I really do love about Summer is all of the amazing produce that is in season. Strawberries, squash, corn, avocados.....the list goes on. And, then there's the tomato. I mean, who doesn't love a tomato in some shape or form?! If you love tomatoes, or you have a home garden and have lots of tomatoes that you are looking to use, you will LOVE this recipe. It's simple, healthy, and delicious!
Read moreBAKED PESTO CHICKEN
I'm in love with pesto, and it pairs so well with chicken. This recipe is super simple to make and so delicious! I use my favorite pesto, which is, surprisingly, a Kirkland brand pesto from Costco. It is soooooo good. But you can use any pesto that you like.
Read moreMUSTARD CRUSTED SMOKED PORK TENDERLOIN
Mustard is one of my favorite sauce bases for meats....especially on pork and lamb. This sauce could be used on just about any smoked or grilled meat. In this recipe, the sauce crusts slightly, but still is soft beneath the outer crust. If you use this sauce on a larger cut of meat like a pork shoulder or pork butt, the sauce will form more of a full-on crust, that is really delicious, due to the longer cooking time. This recipe also pairs really well with my Savory Roasted Potatoes.
