Spinach Artichoke Turkey Sandwich

August 13, 2015 By Shannah Coe 8 Comments

I am excited to work with Sara LeeĀ® Bread to bring you this recipe and fun idea for school lunches. While this post was sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

In just a few short weeks we will be headed back to school. It means lots of activities, homework and of course, back to packing lunches each day. I do my best to change up what the kids get in their lunches so they actually want to eat them. One of my newest sandwiches for lunches is a spinach artichoke turkey sandwich.

Grilled Chipotle Shrimp Salad

August 6, 2015 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

August is always so crazy hot and humid here. The sticky weather makes it hard to think about eating anything that requires cooking. I tend to turn to salads all the time because they are cool and refreshing. I always want some protein with my salad too but hate the idea of heating up the kitchen to cook it. This grilled chipotle shrimp salad is the perfect solution because it requires almost no cooking and tastes amazing!

This chipotle shrimp salad is the perfect hot weather lunch option.

Paleo Chicken Salad

May 18, 2015 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

Guess what day it is?! It is Paleo Monday. I am so excited to share with you one of my absolute favorite new recipes this week. I’ve been searching for a way to replace the chicken salad that I loved for lunch each and every day before going Paleo {er-ish}. Well, I think I finally done it. This paleo chicken salad is to die for and is so perfect for Spring and Summer lunches.

9 Back to School Lunchbox Ideas

August 14, 2014 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

We have to face it. The first day of school is coming. For some of us, that may be a good thing and for others it may be something that we aren’t looking forward to so much. I am somewhere in between. Going back to school sets us into a predictable routine but it also brings a TON of extra activities that we don’t have to fit in during the fun, summer months. One of those things is packing lunches. I dread packing lunches each night so I went searching and found a few back to school lunchbox ideas to help me once we hit that first day of school.

Lunches are my hardest part of back to school. These 9 ideas of what to pack are really helpful! #backtoschool

Succotash Salad

June 17, 2014 By Shannah Coe 4 Comments

During hot weather months, I tend to turn away from hot lunches like soups or casseroles.  They all still taste good but a nice cool sandwich {like this one} or a salad tends to my lunch of choice when it is so hot outside.  I love salads with lettuce but for some reason, when I make them at home, they just don’t do it for me like a restaurant salad.  So, I stick to pasta salads or vegetable centered ones like this succotash salad.

Pesto Chicken Salad

June 12, 2014 By Shannah Coe 4 Comments

One of the huge perks of working from home a few days a week {well, besides the easy commute} is the ability to have breakfast and lunch at home.  If you weren’t already sure, I love to cook and I get bored very easily with deli sandwiches and frozen meals I can pop in the office microwave. I don’t have a lot time to put together a fancy meal or anything but I can squeeze out a freshly made sandwich or breakfast muffin.  The other day, I was craving chicken salad and my  basil plant is growing on hyperdrive so I ended up making pesto chicken salad.  Now, this salad was amazingly delicious but unfortunately just doesn’t look nearly as good as it tastes so you have to trust me on this one.

TBT: Balsamic Chicken Sandwich

June 5, 2014 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

Picnic season is in full force here because the weather is nice {not too hot yet} and it is such a great time to be outside. We are so lucky to have a bunch of different places to go for picnics around here and we really try to take advantage of them whenever we can.  Of course, sometimes we just like having sandwiches and other typical picnic fare at home for lunch too.  Last year, I shared one of my favorite sandwiches and I wanted to bring them back this year because they are just so delicious.  I actually  had one of this balsamic chicken sandwich for lunch today and I was reminded exactly how tasty they are!

Kalbi Flank Steak Sandwiches

September 12, 2012 By Shannah 4 Comments

We recently went on a little wine tour with a bunch of our freighbors.  Part of the day included a potluck style picnic and Mathlete and I signed up to bring sandwiches.Of course, I didn’t want to go straight turkey or ham for my sandwiches.  I wanted something fun and different.
