  • Even though we're nearing the end of the week, now is not the time to allow your home cooking + healthy eating game wane! It's time to break out the Triple SSS: Super Simple Salmon. Salmon recipes can be cooked many ways, but in my book, there’s nothing easier than oven baked salmon in white wine and lemon that's topped with a tangy creme fraiche sauce. It sounds super fancy but is actually, may we say it again, super simple salmon. Tap the link in my profile and search baked salmon for the recipe. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • Light. Refreshing. SO GOOD! This super simple Vietnamese vermicelli noodle salad is what I'm craving now. It gets its inspiration from one of my favorite dishes of all time, Vietnamese bun salads, with fresh slivered veggies in a tangy rice vinegar and limey dressing. Serve it as a side, or top it with tofu, chicken, pork or shrimp for a super tasty main. Tap the link in my profile and search Vietnamese noodle salad for the recipe. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • This chicken piccata pasta is the perfect weeknight pucker upper for a quick dinner that'll please every eater at the table. The lemony white wine, butter and caper sauce makes a light and snappy sauce for linguine or your favorite twirly pasta with burst of tomato and savory mushrooms for an easy pasta that won't weigh you down. Search chicken piccata pasta with the link in my profile for the recipe. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • New week, new goals 💪This Mediterranean-inspired arugula and pesto shrimp salad is not only super simple to prepare ahead of time for lunch, but because you can meal prep it straight from your pantry and freezer, it’s incredibly easy to make on the fly, too. Tap the link in my profile and search shrimp arugula salad for the recipe.
  • We’re skiing this morning then curing my craving for gumbo later this afternoon when we make this. Roux me! Chicken and andouille sausage are the usual ingredients but we add crab or shrimp (or both!) to take this gumbo from sooooo good to totally grand. Search gumbo for the recipe when you tap the link in my profile. This ones for you @lcbarnaby ;)
  • You don't need the extra hours of the weekend to make this creamy coconut milk and peanut butter Thai sauced shrimp making this an awesome any time dinner. I serve it over brown rice for another layer of nutty flavor but white rice, noodles are awesome too, or try spiralized zucchini to keep the veg-love flowing. Tap the link in my profile and search Thai coconut shrimp for the recipe. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
