Hi! So happy you stopped by – because this asparagus recipe is a game changer for your spring recipe rotation. Now, the sous chef and I love just grilling and roasting plain asparagus [olive oil, salt, pepper — you can’t go wrong] – but this is such a perfect side dish with a little extra…

Roasted Bell Pepper and Mozzarella Summer Salad with an Herb Vinaigrette
So the sous chef and I officially have our summer vegetable garden planted, and we’re very excited – the only thing that more exciting would be if we were able to grow cheese. You know, mozzarella cheese or something. Okay, I’d take any cheese [kind of a cheese-aholic]. But we can’t, so we’ll have to…
BBQ Chopped Chicken Salad
Can you keep a secret from the sous chef? Pretty please [with the recipe for this salad on top]? I have several loves in my life – not just him [I know, shhhhh…..]. There’s our fury four-legged son [yes, to be expected], and then this beautiful bowl of spicy, crunchy goodness [GASP]. I know what…

Rosemary Chicken, Avocado, and Bacon Salad with Honey Mustard
So, the sous chef is absolutely obsessed with this salad – and for good reason. For starters, it’s packed with, um, avocado and bacon… [i.e. a match made in heaven]. I mean, that’s pretty much as close to chocolate and peanut butter, or wine and cheese as you’re going to get. So yeah. Now, I’m…
Roasted Salsa with Jalapeno & Cilantro
There’s no hiding the fact that I have an adoration for condiments, and let’s be clear: salsa is no exception. I’d even go as far to say that tomato-based sauces and condiments top my list of favorites, a close third to bacon and wine. And maybe cheese. This is starting to seem like a pretty…
