Summer always makes me think of BLT’s. Red, juicy tomatoes piled on toasted bread with bacon, lettuce and mayo. Such a classic and so good. I still love that classic, but you know me, I’m always in the mood to experiment with food! So yeah, I did that and made these Avocado BLT’s wtih Basil Mayo!

It’s good to have a recipe in your arsenal that works every time and that can magically become many meals. This Slow Cooker Pulled Chicken is that recipe! Want to learn how to make it? I thought so! I’ve got all of the details below.
Life without pickled foods is just no fun! While I love a big jar of locally-made pickles, I also love a big jar of my homemade Quick Refrigerator Pickles. Read on to learn how to make them!
Raise your hand if you love s’mores! Yeah, I figured. Me too. What’s more magical than a toasty marshmallow sandwiched between graham crackers and chocolate? Not much! But it’s not always feasible to build a campfire and get to toasting, so what’s a s’more lover to do? Why make S’mores Dessert Granola, that’s what!
Close your eyes and envision the perfect salad. What does it look like? Mine has whole grains, veggies, fruits and cheeses! Would you like my tips for creating the perfect salad? Great! Grab them below along with my recipe for Summer Grain Salad below!
I love most fruit. Not really surprising there. But berries have a special place in my heart. Maybe because they are so incredibly beautiful and fragile. Or maybe it’s because when they’re ripe, they’re just pure fabuloulness! And after I’ve filled my belly with them in their whole form, I like to turn the extra into these Berry Crumble Bars!
I’m all about throwing meals together these days. It’s always a “what’s kicking in the fridge/pantry/freezer” situation. But from the chaos, usually comes success! Like THIS recipe for BBQ Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes!
Looking for a fun way to eat pizza? Well, I’ve got just the pizza for you! It’s loaded with all of the goodness of summer too! Expect plenty of delicious flavor with this Bacon-Kale-Peach BBQ Pizza!
Do you have big salad dreams? Maybe not, but I do! In fact, I pretty much daydream about food all day. But I’m weird like that. A recent salad daydream became reality! I had just scored some yummy peaches and strawberries and was determined to find a way to use them. Salad? Yes! Strawberry Peach Spinach Salad, to be exact!
Sigh, is this a recipe for a smoothie? And a green smoothie? Oh, it sure is. I know, you’re thinking “NO WAY am I making another green smoothie,” but I think I may be able to chance your mind.
