italian inspired pasta salad
Another one of my favorite refreshing summer sides – a lightened up pasta salad! Super easy to prep and store, making it the perfect side for BBQs, the lake, beach trips, etc. This recipe makes 8 side servings, but adding grilled chicken and some greens is my favorite way to turn this recipe into a well balanced meal!
easy chicken enchiladas
We’re back in action baby! Feels good to be back in the kitchen creating new recipes like these easyyyy and delish chicken enchiladas! Perfect for meal prep, as they reheat great. We topped ours with salsa, avocado, nonfat greek yogurt, and of course – Taco Bell sauce!
crispy chicken & pickle salad
Dill pickle lovers where ya at?! I’ve been seeing the Taylor Farms Dill Pickle Salad all over Instagram, but I’ve been unable to find it where I shop. SO, I decided to make it for myself & it did not disappoint! To make things easier (and less chopping), I found a “Rainbow Salad” at the grocery store with kale, red and white cabbage, broccoli, and carrot shreds to combine with romaine lettuce. You could also buy all those things separately and chop them up to create your own! Serves one.
