I recently had the pleasure of working with Simply Organic in creating recipes for their new line dressing mixes. They have great products and I really love how easy and flavorful this Italian Dressing tastes.

If you have been following my blog you know we have been busy house hunting. Well… We found the perfect house. It has pretty much everything we were looking for and a cute little yard with pool too. EEEK I am so excited! I have always wanted a pool!
I am also super excited to have a great place to entertain. Continue reading Asparagus Avocado Tomato Salad
Spinach Orzo
We have been house hunting like crazy here in the DFW area. The houses are selling like hot cakes! Just when we think we found “the one” it is under contract… It’s so frustrating! So house hunting has become a full time job for me. I am a woman on a mission to find the perfect home! Wish me luck 🙂
Now onto the spinach orzo… Since we have been house hunting day and night I needed quick and easy dinners. This spinach orzo it exactly that! It seriously takes 10 minutes to make.
Rosemary Sweet Potato Stackers
Looking for something different to serve as a side for Easter… How perfect are these Rosemary Sweet Potato Stackers? They look and taste amazing! Every little slice of potato is cooked to perfection in the muffin pan.
My original intent was to create a potato recipe to help with my portion control. Well that didn’t work, I ended up eating three. I had to be certain the flavor was just right so I stepped up… Who am I kidding I knew at the first bite they were divine 🙂 I have serious issues with potatoes…I just love them!
Kale Strawberry and Avocado Salad with Lemon Poppyseed Dressing
I think I have found my new favorite salad! I tend to go through phases with salads…
Sometimes I can eat one everyday and then I am good for awhile. I do like to change my salads up a bit and sort of “think outside of the salad bowl.” Haha! I know that was lame! Moving on, kale is an awesome green to use for a salad. It is inexpensive and really good for you. Some might be hesitant as kale can sometimes be bitter, but I promise if you prep this correctly it will taste amazing!

Asian Sesame Pasta Salad
I am sure after this winter, spring can’t get here soon enough for most of us! Especially for my poor Northeast friends! While I can’t tell a lie, it has been absolutely beautiful in Texas this past week. We have been grilling dinner outside almost every night. All of this grilling has me craving one of my favorite side dishes… Asian Sesame Pasta Salad.
Crispy Baked Avocado Fries
If you have been following my blog for sometime now you probably have figured out I LOVE avocados. So when they were 4 for $5 at the market I had to buy them. I thought I had tried everything I could think of using an avocado… Guacamole, Avocado Egg Salad, Avocado Grilled Cheese, and simply dicing them up and putting them in just about anything. Then I realized I have never made avocado fries! WHAAAAT?
Paleo Guacamole Stuffed Deviled Eggs
