Ginger Dressing
No visit to a Japanese Steak House should begin without a Ginger Dressing salad, cocktails aside. Tell me I’m not alone on this one?

Pork Souvlaki {with Tzatziki Sauce}
Pork Souvlaki {with Tzatziki Sauce}. It’s time for a relatively wordless Wednesday. These skewers of happiness happened. A simple marinade of olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, garlic and fresh oregano infuse the tender pork chunks with classic Greek flavor.

Flame Roasted Poblano, Cilantro & Lime Dressing
Fire Roasted Poblano, Cilantro & Lime Dressing is my new favorite. Slightly smoky bright flavors, balanced by toasted cumin, cilantro and fresh lime juice. I wanted each component to hold it’s flavor identity, so I’ve left it slightly chunky. Turns out this dressing doubles as a kickin’ salsa :) and soon to be used as a marinade.

Caprese Panzanella {with Shrimp}
I scored these gorgeous tomatoes at the market this week, aren’t the colors amazing! Each year when tomato season hits, we run down the list of our favorite tomato recipes. Almost in unison, I heard Caprese Salad and Bread Salad. Just think what gorgeous children those two classics will make. That’s when the Caprese Panzanella love child was born.

Submarine Dressing
For me, it’s the Submarine Dressing that kicks up all those Italian meats and cheeses as they nestle into crusty Italian sub rolls. I’m a huge fan of Italian Grinders aka Italian Submarine Sandwiches.

Marinara Sauce {with Fresh Tomatoes}
I have been on a Marinara Sauce kick these past couple of weeks. I call it a kick because I’m still a bit shocked that we are becoming quite the homesteaders. Well no we didn’t grow these tomatoes, but we did roast them, turn them into sauce and freeze them for the winter. That’s a long way from opening up a jar of our favorite sauce.

Tabouleh & Couscous Salad
I’m not sure why I’ve waited so long to make homemade Tabouleh. It’s packed full of fresh herbs and aromatics, my absolute favorite way to enhance flavor. Today, I introduced this dish to several friends, who I think now also share my love of this Middle Eastern salad.

Roasted Tomatoes with Shrimp & Feta
There was ‘something’ about this Roasted Tomatoes with Shrimp & Feta that grabbed my attention from the moment I saw it. Which was two days ago, somewhere between 3:30 and 4:00 am, while lying in bed surfing Pinterest on my phone. This wide awake in the middle of the night thing has become a bit of a habit. I’ve been told it’s the age, for now I call it my inspirational ‘me’ time.
