I’m not the most creative when it comes to dessert recipes, as you might notice while scrolling through the blog since most recipes are not dessert. While at home, I pretty much just stick to blending frozen fruit with Greek yogurt. But sometimes I get the urge to try something new and hope for the best.

This raspberry cheesecake dessert really worked. I think you know if something is good if, while scraping out the last drops, you wish the bowl was never-ending.

Have you ever heard of a Pierogi Fest? I had no idea there was a festival that celebrates an Eastern European food! When I found out about this festival, I thought I have to go and I don’t care that it’s 3 hours away, by Chicago. My fiancé and I made a day trip out of it and it was a lot of fun!

I think spinach and eggs are a match made in heaven. Or.. maybe not. Maybe if you added some cheese and bacon, you would agree with me. You’re certainly welcome to add cheese and bacon to this recipe, just remember that moderation is key.

You can even make this ahead of time and microwave it the next morning for 1 minute. I do this all the time because I don’t like cooking first thing in the morning. I’m more of a get up and get out the door type. But even if you make this in the morning, it only takes a couple of minutes!

I haven’t made meatballs in a realllyyy long time, probably at least a year. I had found amazing turkey meatballs at Sam’s Club a couple of times and I just haven’t been able to find any others that come even close. They were made with 100% turkey rather than beef and I didn’t even cook them in a sauce, they didn’t need it. I just baked them plain – they were that good! Plus, you could eat about 4 or 5 of them for the same amount of calories as you get in a regular store-bought beef meatball (and they were the same size, I promise). I have no idea what brand they were but I have not seen them for a long time.  🙁  I’ve been very sad about that, very very..

I don’t think any other store-bought meatball will ever come close in my mind, so I decided to make my own meatballs. The result was these delicious BBQ infused turkey meatballs, packed with vegetables – yes I said that right – vegetables! Along with herbs, some vegetables add a very nice, fresh flavor you don’t get in a store-bought meatball.

We have had so much rain in Indiana this summer that my fiancé and I haven’t been able to grill out very often! We both love grilled chicken breasts – I think the best chicken is always made on the grill. But what do you do when the weather won’t let you use your grill? If it stops raining, we think “Quick! Get the lawn mower out!!”

I have the perfect recipe for you for baked chicken breasts that stay juicy and delicious even days later!
