Holy moly, it’s May y’all! I have no clue where April went, but I do know that I happen to love May! There are so many reasons as to why I love May, one of them being that my hubby and I got married in May and this year makes 11 years! (Say what?) Time sure does fly guys, and I can’t believe that we have almost been married over a decade! (Crazy town!) In addition to it being our anniversary month, another reason I happen to love May is because of Cinco de Mayo and because I love any excuse to drink margaritas and eat chips and salsa! Who’s with me? My refreshing hibiscus margarita is just the cocktail you need to kickstart your May off right and to celebrate Cinco de Mayo the right way!
It’s Monday which means busy mornings are in full swing around here! One of my favorite ways to survive the morning is to have a freezer and fridge stocked with easy breakfasts! I have a kiddo who wakes up asking what is for breakfast before I have even fully opened my eyes and so having a breakfast I don’t have to think about is a lifesaver! Things like mini frittatas, muffins, and waffles are just a few of the recipes I like to have on hand at all times! Lately I am so obsessed with blueberry everything and just can’t seem to get enough! I created these double blueberry waffles on a whim one weekend and have been making them ever since!
I’ve been thinking of doing a series on grilling this summer because it seems to be a cooking method that a lot of people are intimidated by, when actually it’s quite simple! It just so happens to be one of my favorite ways to prepare food! I love that I can literally throw anything onto the grill and make my whole meal without even turning my oven on, especially when I don’t want to heat up my house in the hotter months! It truly makes easy weeknight cooking that much easier! My grilled lemon, shrimp, and asparagus orzo salad is one of those easy meals that can be prepared on the grill and is perfect for any night of the week or for a weekend BBQ!

Smoothies are a staple at my house. We drink them for breakfast, post-workout recovery drinks, and for a delicious snack option! I love them because they feel like a little treat even though, if done right, they can be packed with some serious nutrition! I'm excited to bring you a Creamy Avocado Cacao Smoothie recipe, using New Horizon® Organic High Protein Chocolate Milk in Reduced Fat Chocolate Milk to create a smoothie that will surely become your new favorite!
I grew up in Tennessee where deviled eggs were a staple at every pot luck or holiday table! More than likely there were a few varieties of deviled eggs at any given time, especially during Easter time! I love taking classic recipes that I grew up on and giving them new life with exciting new ingredients! Deviled eggs have endless possibilities as far as ways you can add different flavors to them and I created a deviled egg that is perfect for Easter brunch or to serve as an appetizer to Easter dinner! My chorizo deviled eggs are so delicious and easy to make and I can promise even people who think they don’t like deviled eggs will be raving about this recipe!
Happy Monday friends! Let’s start the week out with lots of veggies and gorgeous Spring goodness shall we? I was out of town last weekend and am need of all the veggies in my life and a salad full of all of my favorite Spring produce is just what my body is craving! The good news is, salads don’t have to be boring! In fact they are the perfect way to combine some of your favorite flavors and ingredients into one bowl! Right now I can’t get enough of strawberries and asparagus and together they make a lovely combo, believe it or not! My roasted asparagus strawberry herb salad with tahini honey mustard is sure to take your weeknight salad to a whole other level!
