I hope you all had a great weekend. Summer is officially here and I don't know about you, but I couldn't be happier! This past weekend I spent a lot of time eating and drinking, thanks to the amazing #bonappgrubcrawl and the best lunch ever at Russ and Daughters... go immediately and make sure you get the hot and cold salmon to start!

Monday's especially during the summer give people the blues. Fortunately, that is not usually the case for me, until today! Mondays are my day to prep my food, and get myself organized for the week ahead.I am usually up early and at the farmer's market, followed by a trip to Whole Foods and/or Trader Joe's while the lines are short. After that I head home to prep some dishes for the week.

It's that day again... #MeatlessMonday and I have something delicious in store for all of you. We are going to get saucy with just 3 ingredients!!!! That’s right three ingredients and about 20 minutes of your time.

People ask me all the time what kind of dishes they can prepare in advance to eat throughout the week, so today I am going to share with you one of my summer staples. I am keeping it simple todays recipe super simple for you guys, 3 ingredient simple. Being prepared means you won't fail after all. Along with my watermelon salad this is a summer staple in my fridge.

Well folks, we have officially made it out of the Polar Vortex and reached the amazing month of June!!! What is better than warm long summer days, trips to the beach and splashing in a pool? Summer foods, thats what!

Last week while traveling I picked up a few food magazines to flip through on the plane and by the pool, because let’s face it... if I am not in the kitchen cooking, I am reading or talking about food and health.

Summer is here, you can smell it! Well if you can't smell summer you can certainly smell the aroma of peaches coming into season. This means only one thing to me, Watermelon Peach Salad, my summer staple!!! Also, the perfect dish for any #MeatlessMonday meal.

Well folks, its that time of the week again... FUNday Friday!!!! This Friday I am happy to say I am in Florida with my mother visiting grandma for Mother's Day weekend. So this means family time and a tan!!!! Can't beat the combo! And speaking of combos, let me share with you the quick and easy salad and cocktail (it is FUNday Friday after all) I threw together for the gang with what was on hand.
