Fully Loaded Pigs in a Blanket
I had no idea what to call this recipe. This is the best I could come up with. I used crescent rolls and breakfast link sausage to make a pigs in a blanket more breakfast-y.

French Onion Chicken Casserole
This year I planted a vegetable garden for the first time. I bought a simple, self-watering garden box from Costco and then loaded up on seeds and soil.

Simple Nicoise Salad
This recipe was originally going to have chicken in it, to make it different from a traditional Nicoise salad. But alas, the forgetful grocery shopper strikes again. It doesn't matter how detailed my list is when I go to the supermarket---I will always forget something. I'm usually able to get my husband to pick it… Continue reading Simple Nicoise Salad
