Lemon Champagne Vinaigrette

I always always make my own salad dressings. I love knowing exactly what I'm eating and a homemade dressing is always more vibrant and flavorful. This Lemon Champagne Vinaigrette is one of my favorite simple dressings. It's bright and lemony and goes well with almost anything. I love serving it over a salad of mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, fresh parsley and fresh shaved Parmesan cheese. I also spoon this over simple oven pot… keep reading darling...

Roasted Cherry Tomato & Pesto Bake

Mar
24
This is a perfect quick dinner idea using mostly pantry staples. The pesto can be made ahead and frozen, and the roasted cherry tomatoes are absolutely delicious. I also love this recipe because you can prep it early and finish baking it off when you are ready for dinner. You can also easily make this vegan. I would just swap the Parmesan cheese on top for some Panko breadcrumbs and you can just completely omit the Parmesan… keep reading darling...

Pesto Two Ways

Pesto is my favorite thing to make when I have a bunch of fresh herbs left in my refrigerator. With just a few ingredients, you can turn your leftover herbs into a delicious new creation.

Thai Red Curry Soup

Almost 100% plant based (minus the fish sauce) and comes together in 20 mins, this fiery Thai soup is perfect for a cold night! It's sweet, sour, spicy and full of veggies. I used rice noodles here, but if I was doing it again I would serve it with white rice instead. The broth is the star here, so get creative with the veggies you use. I used broccoli, but red peppers and bamboo shoots would be delicious in this. Enjoy! … keep reading darling...
