Colorful Caribbean Coleslaw with Citrus Dressing is bursting with bright tropical flavors.
If you’re like me, you are hanging on to every bit of summer. I wanted to make a coleslaw recipe that sings of summer. Bright, cheerful, and refreshing.
I also wanted to make a Jerk Turkey Burger and knew this would pair perfectly.
It’s a Win-Win!

The punchy flavors in the Quick Greek Red Wine & Feta Vinaigrette will transport your tastebuds.
Whether you have a favorite Greek restaurant or a favorite Greek Island, this dressing will save you the trip!
I love how the classic Mediterranean aromatics and herbs make this dressing sing. But its the salty tangy feta cheese that’s the star. Sweet honey and the acid from the red wine vinegar are the perfect balance.

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!

This Ratatouille with Herbed Mascarpone is what dreams are made of. Tender roasted veggies with the most incredible herby mascarpone melting throughout each bite.
When the farmers markets are bursting with zucchini, summer squash and eggplant you know it’s Ratatouille season!!

We’ve taken classic Mexican street corn and cut it off the cob. Because scooping corn chips through creamy fresh grilled corn that’s bursting with chili and lime flavors …is FUN!!

I decided to jump on the band wagon and give Sweet Potato Avocado Toast a try.
Six times.
I tried six variations just to be sure and each was as delicious as the one before it.
I’m not sure if I’m more excited about having a gluten free option for Avocado Toast or all these yummy flavor pairings I came up with.

This Caribbean Couscous Salad is inspired by the refreshed bright feeling a vacation brings to your soul.
We’re just back from the US Virgin Islands (St. John) where we celebrated Shelby’s 30th birthday with a special getaway.

I am smitten with this Sweet Potato Crust Veggie & Pesto Quiche.
It has the perfect balance of savory (hello pesto) with a hint of sweetness.
I’ve literally made five variations of it in the past several weeks, sharing it with friends & family along the way.
Rave reviews from all of my taste-testers!

Crispy Parmesan Roasted Broccoli.
Move over cauliflower and Brussels sprouts, broccoli is making a comeback in this house!
Oven roasted, crispy-edged, parmesan-crusted, lemon-zested broccoli is THE best!!
You can serve it as an appetizer (hello…roasted Brussels sprouts are on nearly every appetizer menu).
You should definitely make it your go-to side dish. And Crispy Roasted Broccoli is more than happy stealing the show for any vegetarian meal!
