In case you were wondering, I am still here! Sorry for the radio silence, but I took some time off because my hubby and I were in Hawaii celebrating our ten year anniversary! I decided to put work to the side and just focus on the two of us, and it was so nice! And now that we are back, I cannot believe that it is already June! (The year is passing so quickly already, right?) That means summer is just around the corner and backyard BBQ's are in full effect! My avocado crema slaw is the perfect side dish to make all summer long!
Memorial Day is right around the corner and no matter what your plans are, one thing is for sure, good food is a must! Whether you are hosting a party, are at the beach, or hanging by a pool somewhere (jealous if thats the case), you need to have a yummy spread to serve up to your guests! That's why I've gathered up some of my favorite Memorial Day recipes that are crowd pleasers and perfect for any type of gathering and even just hanging at home!
I am not good about meal planning over the weekend. I think it's because that part of my brain turns off when Friday rolls around. So Monday for me is when I plan out my week and figure out all of our meals. One thing is for sure when I am planning, and that is all of the meals have to be EASY and relatively fast too! I recently did a round-up of my top ten easy weeknight meals, and this recipe that I am sharing with you today could easily get added to that list! My spiced citrus fennel braised chicken thighs and carrots should most certainly be added to your weeknight dinner rotation!

A healthy lifestyle is something I strive to have for myself and for my family. Along with staying active, I believe the main aspect of staying healthy starts with your diet! That's why making healthy swaps like MaraNatha Almond Butters perfect for healthy snacking and recipe additions to any meal makes staying on track even easier. I love that I can shop at my local Walmart and get all of the ingredients that I need to create a delicious and healthy meal that my whole family will love! My almond butter Asian chicken and veggie soba noodle salad is the perfect lunch to meal prep and enjoy all week long!
After a weekend where I indulged in a few too many tacos, because Cinco de Mayo and all, I am definitely craving some lighter dinners this week. We tend to have salmon almost every week and I am always looking for new flavor combinations to switch things up so we don't get tired of eating it. Recently I have been slightly obsessed with miso, so I decided to make a marinade for the salmon that highlights the delicious miso flavor that I am loving so much! My easy miso glazed salmon is the perfect healthy weeknight dinner served alongside your favorite veggie for a super quick and delicious meal!

Mother's Day is right around the corner and my hubby asked me the other day what I wanted to do to celebrate. I honestly couldn't really think of much specifically and then it dawned on me... On Mother's Day it would just be nice if maybe someone else took care of me for a change! That can look like a lot of things, but something simple like preparing a beautiful brunch for the mamas in your life can mean the world to her! I have created the perfect simple brunch for any Mother's Day celebrations that you may have! Surprise the sweet mamas in your life with my delicious Earl Grey Lemon Scones and Iced Green Tea, and make her feel extra special this Mother's Day!
