'Awesome-sauce' recipes for every day of the year!
So here in Minnesota it's still winter...and cold..and gloomy..So as a cure here is a colorful and delicious salad! The lemon zest adds a sunny flavor and the colorful vegetables make for a more interesting lunch plate. Not to mention the added benefit of some serious protein power in this dish. Enjoy!
So you want a baked pasta recipe that won't ruin your week but still has a flavor profile? Or it's a Friday in Lent and you're looking for something a little better than fried fish and chips (as delicious as that is!)? Or maybe you just need an easy casserole that you can pop in the oven while getting ready for company to come over? Bring in the tuna casserole! The tuna gives you a protein boost with just enough mayo to make it a comfort dish. Toss in some veggies and garlic and you're ready for dinner.
Fall is here! And with it wonderful vegetables that are delicious when roasted. I love this recipe because you've got beautiful colors, loads of healthy vegetables, and an excellent protein kick from the quinoa and black beans. A great healthy fall meal to get you through a busy week. Enjoy!
Time for another goodness filled salad to fit your budget! Recently I was out with my cousins picking blueberries...and we went a little overboard! So after freezing a pound, (and snacking on a pound on the plane ride back to the twin cities!), I wanted to experiment with a blueberry vinaigrette - which means I needed a salad to go with it!
It's that time of year! Grad parties and picnics and summer cook-outs galore! These all come with the same question - what should I bring??? There are always the staples to fall back on in a pinch - pasta salad, coleslaw, a fruit platter, etc. And these are all undoubtedly great things to have at any summer festivity. But I recently went to a friend's cook-out. Now, I always end up bringing a variation of pasta salad but I heard someone else was already bringing one! That, combined with a wish to bring something a little different, led to try to create something a little more original. Enter the bean salad!
