15 Minute Sausage and Peppers with Basil

So for those of you who have been around for a while, you KNOW I love me some Whole30. I love resetting my system and eating clean. I also love mac and cheese, and margaritas – so balance is the key! BUT In case you didn’t know, I have a great 7-day, Whole30 meal plan…

Grilled or Roasted Honey-Balsamic Chicken Thighs

If you’ve been following me for long, you know by now that my favorite cut of meat is a bone-in, skin-on chicken thigh. Followed closely by boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Any cut of chicken is a great option for this cooking method, and I’ve provided instructions on how to cook ‘em all below. First we…

Grilled Prosciutto and Brie Wrapped Figs

Yep, these are basically the exact same ingredients from my Fig and Prosciutto Grilled Cheese sandwiches from earlier this week! Good food blogger move? No. Good fridge-cleaner-outer move? Yes! These couldn’t be more delicious, or easier. They’re crispy smoky from the prosciutto, gooey and cheesy from the melted cheese, jammy and sweet from the figs….

Grilled Summer Vegetable Greek Salad

I love a Greek salad. Salty feta, briny olives, sharp red onion, juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumbers – what’s not to like?! In my opinion, Greek salads should really only be served (in the US anyway) during the summer and fall months, when tomatoes are ripe and delicious. Hothouse winter tomatoes just aren’t the same! With…

5-Ingredient Cholula & Lime Shrimp Tacos

  Another quick and easy grilled dinner for you. Throw the shrimp on the grill (or you can sear them in a skillet) for 1 1/2 minutes per side, char your tortillas, and load your tortillas full of avocado, cotija, and whatever other toppings you love. Dinner is served in 30 minutes!

Everything Bagel Cheesy Dogs

Yep, I wrote a recipe involving hot dogs. And everything bagel spice. And a ton of toppings. It’s not a cheeseboard, it’s a hot dog board. With the 4th of July coming up, I know you need a fun new idea to mix things up! These cheesy everything bagel hot dogs are the answer. The…

Gooey Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookie Berry Cobbler

I am very proud of this peanut butter cookie cobbler. I brought this to a Memorial Day BBQ at a neighbor’s house and my ego was THROUGH THE ROOF with all of the compliments. I’d made dessert for this crowd a few times already, so I was familiar with their standard level of dessert-complimenting. This…

Summer Tomato, Corn and Peach Salad with Avocado and Grilled Halloumi

  I have been making this salad multiple times per summer since we moved to California seven years ago. Tomatoes, corn, and peaches and all perfectly in season at the same time, requiring minimal work to become an absolutely delicious salad when tossed all together. Need a fresh, delicious side for a potluck? Make this…

Grilled Steakhouse Dinner with Mint-Cilantro Chimichurri

The best part about grilling is the minimal cleanup. Ok, it also tastes good, but I really hate doing dishes. “Cleaning the grill” really just means blasting it on high heat and using the grill brush to scrape all of the (now charred, and easy to scrape) junk off. To make this entire meal, I…

Grilled steak with green herb sauce, grilled eggplant, asparagus, a bowl of sauce with a spoon, and fresh greens arranged on a tray.

Chipotle Steak Tacos with Grilled Peach Salsa and Mashed Avocado

Back when I had a resume, it used to list “taco-tarian” as a hobby. I am passionate about tacos. Fresh tortillas, delicious fillings, plus toppings of the creamy and zesty and tangy variety. This is a really good taco. Flank steak is marinated for up to 24 hours, but as little as 30 minutes in…
