Welcome to the weekend, my friends! I’m picking up a giant delivery of peaches today and I’m giddy with peach-loving excitement. Peach jam, bourbon peach sauce, southern peach cobbler, peach crunch, peach caprese salads, everything PEACH is on the menu this week, and I’m in near-heaven over it.
Welcome to your earworm for today – gonna eat a lot of peaches…
ON THE BLOGS THIS WEEK: Summer meals and cold pasta salads go together like peanut butter and jelly. Whether you’re eating it at a park, serving it at a barbecue or potluck, or just making it ahead of time and stashing it in the fridge for easy lunches, this vegetable-laden bowtie pasta salad always satisfies.
Tender chicken, salsa, green chile, and black beans are simmered together in the crock-pot and then scooped into warm tortillas to create the easiest, tastiest, salsa chicken tacos and burritos.
Baked potatoes are the ultimate in comfort food, and this summery twist on a loaded baked potato salad is an awesome variation on the classic potatoes. With fluffy potatoes, sour cream, cheddar cheese, bacon, and chives, there is a whole lot of flavor in every awesome bite.
Ranch dressing meets my undying love for dill pickles in this recipe for dill pickle ranch dressing. Drizzled over a salad or served as a dip for just about anything, this disappears within a few days of making it every time I stir a batch together.
This simple romaine salad was inspired on a whim when I looked in the nearly empty fridge and found little more than some lettuce in the produce drawer. Fortunately, it turns out that with little more than a head of romaine, a drizzle of oil and vinegar, and a sprinkling of salt and pepper, you can put together a company-worthy salad.
Tender pasta and the “holy trinity” of bell peppers, celery, and onion, along with a creamy Cajun dressing, make this Cajun pasta salad irresistible. Pair this flavorful pasta salad
