Winter Garden Salad

Winter Garden Salad
This Winter Garden Salad is the only salad you need this season! This is our recreation of a local pub’s winter salad that was SO good. Hannah’s been on a salad kick lately, so we knew this had to get thrown into the mix to recreate. Salads are not difficult by any means, but it’s easy to make a bad salad, right? This one hits...

Chopped Broccoli Salad

Chopped Broccoli Salad
This chopped broccoli salad is so good.  It will be a great addition to your summer BBQ. The best part is that you can make it ahead of time so you aren’t slaving in your kitchen as people are walking up your driveway. What kind of vegetables can you add to a chopped salad? I love a chopped salad.  You can really substitute any veggies...

Buffalo Beef Burger Salad with Marzetti® Tastefully Dressed™ Buttermilk Romano Ranch Dressing 
 When my husband was alive, our Friday night conversations went like this:  Me: “Hey honey, I am meal planning.  What do you feel like having this week?”  Hubs: “I don’t care.”  Me: “Really?  You don’t have a taste for anything?”  Hubs: “Nope, whatever you make is fine.”  While I loved that conversation because that meant I could fix whatever I wanted, when it came time...

Chicken Quinoa Salad with Honeycrisp Apple Dressing

Chicken Quinoa Salad with Honeycrisp Apple Dressing
This salad marries my two favorite things: honeycrisp apple and delicata squash!      This salad just tastes like a fall day with a bit of chill in the air and a slight crunch of leaves at your feet.      My philosophy on salad is that if you are going to make a good salad great – you have to use a great salad dressing, and that’s why Marzetti® Tastefully Dressed™ Honeycrisp Apple...

Pad Thai Salad

Pad Thai Salad
I have a new to me product that I need to share.  Natural Heaven hearts of palm . . . pasta!   First, one of the number one question I got when I posted this on Instagram was “Biz, does it taste like pasta?”  Well, the answer is no – because it’s hearts of palm.  It absorbs the flavors of the dish.  I happen to love...

Salmon Salad with Hearts of Palm and Melting Goat Cheese

Salmon Salad with Hearts of Palm and Melting Goat Cheese
When I woke up yesterday morning, I got a little teary right off the bat.  This was my Timehop picture from just 3 years ago. He was being so goofy in this picture, but what I can’t believe is that I let him help me shovel snow when he spent the first nine days of 2014 in the hospital.  It’s not that I don’t think...

National Diabetes Awareness Month

National Diabetes Awareness Month
Yesterday was just a weird day.  I stepped outside to head to the train and had a winter coat on.  While it gets warm during the day, when I leave my house it’s usually in the mid-30s.  I stepped out, pulled out my phone and the weather app said 55 degrees at 7:20 in the morning – nice!  I came back in, switched to a...
