Crispy Parmesan Roasted Broccoli
Crispy Parmesan Roasted Broccoli. Move over cauliflower and Brussels sprouts, broccoli is making a comeback in this house! Oven roasted, crispy-edged, parmesan-crusted, lemon-zested broccoli is THE best!! You can serve it as an appetizer (hello…roasted Brussels sprouts are on nearly every appetizer menu). You should definitely make it your go-to side dish. And Crispy Roasted Broccoli is more than happy stealing the show for any vegetarian meal!

Bruschetta Panzanella Salad
This Bruschetta Panzanella Salad was born out of leftover garlic bread and bruschetta! Exactly the way classic Panzanella (Italian stale bread salad) is intended to come together. Happy Monday! Monday. The day I peer into my fridge and decide which leftovers from the weekend can be given a new outlook on life. Kind of the way I give myself a new outlook on life. Mondays are my chance to reset. To start the week off right and forgive myself for veering off course by getting back to good intentions.

Satisfying Steak & Potato Dinner Salad {with Chimichurri Sauce}
Steak & Potato Dinner Salad with Chimichurri Sauce here we come!! When we unofficially declared April as Salad Month, I’m not sure my husband was 100% on board. Don’t get me wrong he loves salad and makes amazing salads with great ingredients (one of the many reasons I love him). He also loves a steak and potatoes. This salad is a tribute to him. The salad loving, steak worshiping man of my dreams.
