Finally sharing a recap of our Spring Break in Turks & Caicos!! This was our third time visiting the island and it was just as wonderful as it has been in the past. We stayed at The Somerset (also our third time staying there specifically) and I have to say it was probably our best visit to date. I’ll go into detail about why we love/chose the resort but overall a few reason we love Turks & Caicos: the island is quiet for the most part, not as busy as other places we’ve visited (Grand Cayman). Everyone is SO KIND. There are plenty of little shops and breakfast/lunch spots to get you o ..read more

The perfect Spring pasta recipe. Whenever I make a version of this on my Instagram stories I am flooded with messages asking for the recipe!

This Spring I’m all about more is more when it comes to fresh ingredients in my favorite recipes so if there is something you have a lot of in your refrigerator – add it in!

Lightened Up Taco Salad with Cottage Cheese Dressing

This isn’t your traditional taco salad recipe, this is a lightened up version filled with freshness and crunch and packed with protein. I love the flavors in Mexican cuisine but a lot of times you find them packed with calories and oil. You know how much I love creating healthy versions of restaurant favorites and I’m always trying to increase my protein intake. I have been playing around with a ranch dressing made from cottage cheese (I’ll share that soon!) and stumbled upon a slightly spicy version for this salad. We made Mexican meals a lot (check out our favorite enchiladas and mexican fo ..read more
