Prosciutto Cups with Pear and Goat Cheese

December 3, 2018 By Shannah 26 Comments

Prosciutto cups with pears and goat cheese are the perfect easy party appetizer! This one bite appetizer is so perfect because it combines salty, savory and sweet flavors into one delicious little bite.

Every party needs an delicious one bite appetizer that the host can easily make in advance but also stands the test of the hours long it sits during a party. Prosciutto cups with pear and goat cheese are perfect for parties because much of the prep can be done 1-2 days ahead.

While they can survive a few hours on the party table, you won’t need to worry about that because they will totally disappear once people try them.

Chicken Avocado Quinoa Salad

May 18, 2018 By Shannah 25 Comments

An easy salad, like chicken avocado quinoa salad, that can be made ahead and enjoyed all week long is perfect for meal prep or just to get ready for a summer party! 

During the summer, I totally crave cool salads but get bored with lettuce based salads pretty quickly. Chicken avocado quinoa salad is the perfect salad that fits as a light main course or a fun side dish at your summer BBQ or picnic.

Maple Bacon Brussels Sprouts

November 16, 2015 By Shannah 1 Comment

So, I woke up this weekend and realized we were less than two weeks away from Turkey day. Yes, in case you weren’t aware…Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away. Have you started thinking about your menu yet? Side dishes are where I put most of my effort because they are my favorite part. Usually green beans are our green vegetable of choice and, while they will still be making an appearance on this year’s table, I am completely obsessed with these maple bacon Brussels sprouts.

Maple bacon Brussels sprouts are the perfect side dish for Thanksgiving...or any day.

Whew…this week just flew by! Between my travel to BlogHer Food {amazing, by the way} and then a holiday smack in the middle of the week, I don’t think I ever got back on track. I’m using this weekend to catch up and get my meal plan all set for the next two weeks since we are staring down a major holiday here soon. I love the easy dinner recipes we include in these weekly meal plans. It makes it so easy to make sure we get dinner on the table even on the busiest nights.

Skip the stress of deciding what is for dinner each night and use our easy recipes meal plan instead!
