Roasted Red Pepper Deviled Eggs
With Easter just around the corner, I can't think of a more perfect dish than deviled eggs. But, these are deviled eggs with a twist. Roasted red pepper is blended into the deviled egg filling.

Easy Beet and Fennel Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette
Do you like beets? I love beets, but my husband does not. He dislikes them so much that when I asked him how he liked these photos, he told me that just looking at a picture of beets made his stomach churn. After 8 years of marriage, I have come to accept that I will not get him to like beets, no matter what recipe it is. Whenever there is a food that my husband doesn't like, I find that I don't make it as often. Especially when it's an ingredient that needs cooking, and … [Read more...]

Salmon Rice Bowl (30 Minutes)
Who else likes a good sushi moment?! This salmon rice bowl IS NOT SUSHI, but for me, it has those deconstructed sushi vibes to it. A similar idea to my smoked salmon sushi bowls - LOVE that recipe too! This salmon rice bowl is essentially cooked salmon and rice, combined with a spicy mayo sauce. The fun part is in the toppings. You use nori sheets, or those little seaweed snack packets (my fave), and add some of the salmon mixture to the seaweed, top it with a slice of avocado, and a few … [Read more...]
