Funny thing about Key lime pie: I hadn’t tried it until five or six years ago. For the longest time, I thought I wasn’t a “pie person.” But when I tried it, I fell in love. Yes, I’m late to the Key lime pie party, but that won’t stop me from trying to make up for lost time by whipping up this dessert any chance I get. Because the other thing about me is that I’m not much of a baker in the traditional sense. I like easy, no-bake, delicious desserts where I can hide all my mistakes and imperfections. So a no-bake pie crust, yes please! To be fair, my avocado Key lime pie in a jar is anything bu ..read more

What could be more summery than this? Grilled chicken, check. Tequila and limes, check. Chicken skewers, check!

Love macaroni salad, me too! This creamy macaroni salad is easy to make and absolutely delicious. You won’t even be able to tell that it’s actually a little lighter than a traditional macaroni salad. Rather than using lots and lots of mayo (even though I love the stuff!), I use a blend of Greek yogurt and mayonnaise to make it richer, tangier and a bit healthier. So even though this is called a healthy macaroni salad, don’t be afraid to switch it up and try this version instead. Your tastebuds will thank you, I promise. Macaroni Salad is the MOST Nostalgic (and retro) & I love that If the ..read more

Who doesn’t love a sheet pan meal? Throwing everything on a sheet pan and cooking it at the same time is exactly what I need sometimes (ok most times).

I love a quick throw together one pot (or one pan) meal like this. The chicken gets all browned and crispy on top, and so do the potatoes. It’s ..read more

If you love chicken wings, especially crispy ones and Mexican food and flavours, you’re gonna love these Mexican chicken wings.

Once they’re air fried, go ahead and drizzle the lime crema, cotija cheese, cilantro and some serrano peppers for heat. Highly suggest pairing these air fryer wings with some guac and a marg (preferably on a sunny day) but honestly, you could eat these in the dead of winter and just blast the heat and pretend you’re somewhere warm.
