I'm an advertising executive's dream. I get suckered into Instagram and Facebook ads all the time. I'll find myself swiping through pictures of things I never knew I needed for hours...oh, wait. I don't need them. It appears an advertisers influence over my purchasing skills is quite potent. The grocery store is no different. I… Continue reading Italian Country Breakfast Bake

Strawberry, Chicken & Basil Salad
There's a flavor combination unlike any other. One that sparks tang, sweetness and saltiness on your tastebuds. The Italians cracked the code on the ultimate combo: Caprese. Juicy tomatoes, sour balsamic vinegar, and sweet-and-earthy basil. Those three ingredients alone can invoke a carnival of happiness in your mouth. I've been in love with Caprese salad… Continue reading Strawberry, Chicken & Basil Salad

Chopped Chicken Caprese Salad
A classic Italian salad beefed up to an entree. Marinate chicken with balsamic vinegar, basil and mustard and then grill. Toss in mozzarella pearls, cherry tomatoes and avocado for an added punch!
Lasagna Stuffed Peppers
I feel like you could stuff a pepper with anything and it would taste good. I've done buffalo chicken & quinoa, Philly cheesesteak, and the classic version with ground beef and tomatoes. I mean, seriously. Can you think of something that wouldn't taste good stuffed into a pepper? Ice cream, probably. I don't think ice… Continue reading Lasagna Stuffed Peppers
Lemon Basil Pasta Salad
It's been a long, fun-filled last two weeks. Rob & I just got home on Tuesday, and after three days back at work I'm back to this lovely corner of the internet I call home. We roadtripped to Montana to meet with my family in Great Falls, traveled to Havre for my uncle's wedding, then… Continue reading Lemon Basil Pasta Salad
