One thing I love about Summer, is the delicious Summer foods. And one food that screams Summer, BBQs and picnic lunches, to me at least, is Potato Salad. It's a bit time consuming to make (cooling the potatoes, chopping veggies), but well worth it. This Potato Salad recipe is fairly simple. I added a few… Continue reading Potato Salad

Pasta Salad
This summer has been super hot, and I haven't been in the mood to cook or eat big meals. So, I have been living off of salads and fruit. It has been delicious and quite healthy 😂. I'm not entirely sure where the recipe came from. I know I googled it at some point to… Continue reading Pasta Salad
Parmesan Pesto Spaghetti Squash with Shrimp
I am the worst photographer ever! But these were delicious! These Spaghetti squash "bowls" or "boats" are easy to make, but a bit time consuming because Spaghetti squash takes a bit to prep. You're going to want to start by poking some holes into your squash with a fork and then microwaving it for at… Continue reading Parmesan Pesto Spaghetti Squash with Shrimp

Really, this is just a guideline or starting point. My first step was to prepare my chicken… Continue reading Garden Chicken Pasta

Butternut Squash Risotto
This risotto was so delicious and so easy to make! I ate practically the whole pan tonight myself! Originally the recipe calls for mushrooms as well as the butternut squash, but I absolutely cannot stand mushrooms so I just left them out. You of course, can add them if mushrooms are your thing. I got… Continue reading Butternut Squash Risotto

This recipe was soooo delicious! Very messy to eat though but so fun!
