Corn, Tomato, and Avocado Pasta Salad

This is my kind of meal. I cannot tell you how obsessed I am with this pasta salad.  Well, I can try.  😉  Let’s start with the ingredients.  This salad is basically a bowl full of some of my favorite things on earth.  Pasta, avocado, cheese, tomatoes, basil… this is seriously heaven for me.  I could not stuff my face fast enough when I ate it.  (Although it probably did not help that it took me longer to photograph than I expected so I was starving by the time I could eat it.) I love this salad not just for …

BBQ Chicken Naan Pizza

Pizza for the win.  Even fake pizza. I created this fabulousness by combining a few of my recipes.  I love my margherita naan pizza because using naan makes it so quick and easy to whip up a pizza dinner.  Seriously, my husband and I made margherita naan pizza at least 7 times this year.  I also love my husband’s chicken garlic pizza creation.  It’s been a while since he’s made it because making the pizza dough takes a bit of time and more importantly some slightly annoying levels of planning, but it’s absolutely one of our favorite recipes. Lately, my favorite week night …

Mulligan Stew

It’s a hot and humid summer day but I’m still going to share a stew recipe with you today. I’m not rushing us into Fall with today being the first day of August.  That would be annoying since we still have half of the summer to go.  However, I have jumped straight to winter momentarily because I’ve been watching the Christmas movies in July on the Hallmark Channel.  The movies have definitely put me in the mood for hot cocoa but that’s probably going a little too far for the middle of summer, even for me. Anyway, my husband watched …

Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

I have a love hate relationship with chicken. I’ve told you guys before that I’m picky about the texture and taste of chicken.  If I get a gristly bit or it tastes too chicken-y then I’m grossed out and chicken goes on to my “foods I hate” list.  If the chicken can behave itself then everything is right in the world.  Lately, I’ve had no weird chicken aversions so I’m loving chicken.  (Boy, it’s not often that I say that).  That means that I’m taking advantage of this happy with chicken situation and making a lot of recipes, like these …

Margherita Tortilla Pizza

I’m sharing a Margherita tortilla pizza recipe with you today.  Yup, I said tortilla. Pizza.  Where do I start?  It’s one of my favorite foods of all time and I’m sure that I’ve said that a number of times.  My husband makes a killer homemade pizza.  Unfortunately, we don’t always have the time (or patience) to go the real deal route.  That means that I’m always looking for ways to make a “pizza wannabe.” I’ve made Naan pizza (which we eat all the time) and English muffin pizza (which honestly gives me flashbacks to college).  Then I found the recipe for …
