This Insalata Chicken Florentine is a Copycat from Macaroni Grill. Not sure if you are familiar with them or this incredible salad.
IT IS AMAZING.
Every ingredient is so well thought out, each delivering a unique flavor and/or texture.

Roasted Garlic Lemon Vinaigrette might be my new favorite way to dress a salad.
Roasting the garlic mellows it nicely while the fresh lemon juice gives a nice burst of bright flavor.

His words were, “This is THE Best Chicken Francese with Artichoke Hearts I’ve ever had!!”
That was good enough for me…
…so I made it for him again the next night.

If you want to put a smile on their faces….serve them Raspberry Lemonade Ice Cream Sandwiches!!
Because who doesn’t love an ice cream sandwich?! Especially on on a hot summer day!

I love this Mediterranean Chopped Salad because you can make a giant bowl and eat on it for days!
Or in our case you can make it two days in a row because it’s that good!!
We’re definitely on a salad kick right now and I’m loving it.
And my body is pretty stoked too!

I was torn on whether to call this beautiful bowl of roasted goodness a dip or a spread.
Not that it really matters, but considering I dipped my way through its photo shoot, I settled on Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Dip.
Had there been a baguette in the house, this most certainly would have been called a spread.
You decide.

Bacon Wrapped Bourbon Glazed Grilled Peaches are glorious.
They are a perfect side dish, ice cream topping, bread pudding partner, cuddle up on the couch like nobody’s business snack. The list goes on.
This recipe is a gift that keeps on giving.

Wow on so many levels. Have you had grilled pineapple? Turned your nose up at gin? Questioned fresh herbs in a cocktail? If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions…
