Asparagus Caprese Salad with a Crunchy Basil Topping

Asparagus Caprese with a Crunchy Basil Topping…for the win! Asparagus is everywhere when it comes to spring food, so I decided to marry it with the classic caprese flavors but elevate it up a bit!  I added toasted breadcrumbs for some texture, fresh lemon juice for some brightness, and roasted the asparagus for some depth. It all comes together to create a lovely marriage of flavors. This recipe is easy to throw together for a last-minute side dish for a party or even a weeknight dinner.

Roasted Tomato and Zucchini Tart with Burrata and Basil

I am a veggie addict! I know I post how much I love desserts, but my love for veggies is almost, almost, equivalent to my love for sweets. I eat veggies throughout the day, and with every meal. I think I love basically every vegetable out there…yup…can’t think of one I don’t like right now.

Butternut Squash and Chicken Fall Pie

I have a love/hate relationship with making dinner. I love to cook and create recipes, but there are just some nights when I really don’t feel like making anything! That is why I love recipes that allow me to either make them head of time, or that make really great leftovers.
