Yesterday I jumped in with both feet and came up with three salads I think you’ll really enjoy!
The first up is this festive Pear, Pomegranate & Pecan Spinach Salad with Pomegranate Maple Vinaigrette!
You see, I was somewhere between planning our Family Thanksgiving menu and scheduling an upcoming Holiday Luncheon when I realized a serious void on Lemony Thyme. I’m really slacking in the festive salad category.
That was then, this is now!

Greek Chicken & Rice Soup, also known as Avgolemono, is a wonderfully hearty soup with fresh bursts of lemon throughout.
As we head squarely into soup season this creamy delicious pot of love deserves to be on rotation.

This From The Earth Salad with Sherry Vinaigrette is aptly named after our nearby brewery where it can be found on the menu.
The ingredients in this salad are simple and colorful and fresh. Tangy feta, with blistered tomatoes and crisp corn pair perfectly with creamy avocado and fresh cucumber and greens.
Then there’s the Sherry Vinaigrette. Just the right balance of vinegar to honey to aromatic shallot and garlic.

My motivation for this Heart Healthy Turkey & Sweet Potato Southwest Chili was to deliver a flavor packed hearty chili.
You know the kind even your manly man will eat. But packed full of nutrients without extra calories.
Because let’s face it, most of us don’t need empty calories and are perfectly happy as long as we’re satisfied. This chili is definitely satisfying.

The ingredients in this Fig & Walnut Arugula Salad with Chickpeas & Gorgonzola play so nicely together.
Heaven on a plate!
While I haven’t always loved arugula, I’m a fan now! It’s quickly becoming my go-to green!
First off, it’s eats well. Do you know what I mean?
You can stick your fork into an arugula salad and more often than not, you’ll have yourself a pretty perfect bite! You can’t say that about every salad.

When I asked you all for fig recipe inspiration my sister-in-love immediately responded with “Fig & Mascarpone Pizza!”
To which I replied “Sounds amazing! Recipe please.”
So this Fresh Fig & Mascarpone Sweet Potato Pizza is my version of her recipe. She was 100% correct. The combination of fig, mascarpone, and honey is incredible! The sweet potato ‘pizza crust’ is like a match made in heaven!

When you combine bananas with chopped walnuts and chocolate chips what else can you call them but Chunky Monkey Muffins.
(thank you Ben & Jerry’s for that)
Be honest with me.
When you see {Gluten Free} is that a turn off?

Shredded Pork Tacos {with Chimichurri Sauce}.
I absolutely love these tacos. Simple and delicious.
Flame roasted corn tortillas, shredded pork, sliced avocado, diced red onion, crumbled queso fresco cheese, and a spoonful or two of this fabulous Chimichurri Sauce.
