Roasted Cauliflower Pizza Bake

Roasted Cauliflower "Pizza" Bake

Cauliflower happens to be one of my favorite vegetables, especially when roasted. It takes on a whole nutty and caramelized flavor that truly makes it irresistible. And while I genuinely love cauliflower, I am usually not a fan of a cauliflower crust pizza, and prefer my pizza to be the real thing if I am going to enjoy it! I do love coming up with ways to satisfy my pizza cravings throughout the week though when I am trying to eat lighter which is why I created this delicious cauliflower sheet pan meal. This recipe for roasted cauliflower “pizza” bake is one that you are going to be making over and over again.

The Best Tuna Salad

Tuna salad is way underestimated in my opinion. I make a batch at least once a week and it’s hands down one of my favorite healthy lunches! Everyone has their own favorite way to make tuna salad, but I learned this recipe from my mama years ago (she learned from her dad), and I might be biased, but our recipe truly is the best! I season mine with old bay, a classic seafood seasoning, and put lots of crunchy goodness in there for texture and flavor. Tuna salad is so great for meal prepping, which is why I tend to make this recipe almost weekly. Do yourself a favor and make the best tuna salad you’ve ever eaten by following my simple but flavorful recipe!

Garlic and Shallot Green Beans

Garlic and Shallot Green Beans

Green beans are a staple for a vegetable side dish at our house. There are so many ways to cook them, but I have found my favorite method and no other beans compare. These green beans are the kind of veggie side dish that you will want to make over and over again because they are just that good.  We have them at least once a week at my house and eat them like they are French fries, true story!  You will not have a problem getting your kiddos or any other picky eaters in your house to eat their green vegetables with a recipe like this. My Garlic and Shallot Green Beans are going to become your new favorite side to serve with almost every meal.

The Ultimate Summer Caprese Platter

The summer is almost over, but that doesn’t mean that we still can’t enjoy all of the gorgeous summer fruits for a little while longer! I don’t know about you, but even though I long for crisp fall mornings, saying goodbye to all of my favorite melons, tomatoes, stone fruits, and cherries is not something I am ready for yet! One of my favorite ways to enjoy summer’s produce is to make a Caprese salad! It’s the most perfect summer dish that is so great for a light lunch or dinner all season long! I turned one of my favorite salads into the best summer entertaining platter! My Ultimate Summer Caprese Platter is perfect to serve up for any remaining warm summer nights spent with friends and family!

Easy Gluten Free Broccoli Cheese Fritters with Za'atar Yogurt Dip

I have a love hate relationship with the time change. On one hand I love more evening light, but on the other hand it takes me a week or two to adjust to not feeling behind from the time I get up in the morning! All week i have been feeling like I just can’t get ahead of my schedule and I already know easy recipes are a must this week in order to survive! Fritters are one of those recipes that I love making because you can combine whatever you have in the fridge and make something super yummy that can stand on it’s own or be served alongside your favorite dish. My easy gluten free broccoli cheese fritters with za’atar yogurt dip are perfect to make any night of the week!
