Hey friends❣️

I'm a big fan of pasta in the summer, but it's got to be the right pasta ~ no and low-cook sauces are the way to go!

Pesto Pasta with Ricotta and Tomatoes

Just a few spoonfuls of homemade pesto, creamy ricotta, and colorful heirloom cherry tomatoes ~ this no cook sauce is everything!

Pesto provides the flavor bomb for this and so many summer meals. My homemade pesto keeps at least 10 days in the fridge, so it’s handy to have around for quick dinners like this. I have so many pesto recipes to choose from:

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about?

Food should be fun!

When You Want to Show Off 🦚 Make This!

Hey friends❣️ Summer inspires me to get creative in the kitchen. The colors of the tomatoes, the melons, the berries ~ it's a palette I can use to create visually stunning dishes that are equally delicious. Here are some show-stopping ideas (along with more restrained alternatives if you aren't feeling so ambitious.) Cucumber Melon Salad Not sure I've ever made a prettier salad...it's basically a checkerboard made with melon cubes, cuke slices, cherry tomatoes and cheese! It's a cheffy salad...
