Grilled Peanut Butter & Banana Sandwich
I had to sneak in a kid favorite into this series. This is your basic peanut butter-banana sandwich with a few secret ingredients...grilled to perfection. But note, this isn't just for the kids. I loved this sandwich and have made it several times in the recent past. I just love how the peanut butter gets perfectly ooey gooey when you grill it. You could grill this on a … [Read more...]
Southwest Shells with Beans and Corn
Smoky, smoky, smoky! The flavor in this simple pasta salad gets kicked up a few notches by adding 2 spices to the mayo before you toss it all together. My guess is that you have all of these items on hand you could make this TONIGHT. I adore pantry staple recipes like this one...not only because of how easy and simple they are to put together, but also because they … [Read more...]
Pesto Orzo with Tomatoes
Oh pesto. Pesto, pesto, pesto. Pesto just tastes like summer, doesn't it?! I don't make pesto too often because pine nuts are expensive and I can't always get them into my budget...but I found some on sale this week and made my own pesto! Because, enjoying pesto-laced pasta is like taking a bite out of summer. I've written the recipe below with store bought pesto, … [Read more...]

Spinach Salad with Strawberries & Goat Cheese
Splurge Confession! I've shared in the past how I'm a total 'saladforlunch-itarian' - meaning that I eat a salad for lunch most days of the week. Well, I wanted to share my latest salad obsession and the reason I'm obsessed! It's the dressing. (See photo below.) I can blame my mom for this one...she has turned me into a Brianna's salad dressing fanatic, despite the … [Read more...]
4-Ingredient Shredded Hawaiian Chicken Sandwiches
Slow Cooker. 4-Ingredients. 5 minutes prep. I think we might just start eating these every day, forever. Because "easy-easy-easy." Couple notes: I don't count the salt and pepper in the ingredients. Or the sides/buns. So don't send me hate email. ;) There are 3 or 4 ingredients that go into the slow cooker to cook. And that's it. So simple. You … [Read more...]

We might need to declare this 'lunch recipes' week...although any of the recipes could be served for a simple supper on a busy weeknight, they'd also make for a delicious lunch. In fact, I'm skipping a salad for lunch today and having sliders instead. I'll be back to salads tomorrow, and sharing a crazy delicious new salad with you on Friday! I don't share too many seafood … [Read more...]
