Gazpacho Grain Bowl {with Confetti Veggies}
I made a big batch of Gazpacho to take to a family gathering. I thought it would be a nice refreshing change and it was.

Pan Roasted Brussels Sprouts {with Orzo & Bacon}. Thought I’d take Roasted Brussels Sprouts in a little different direction, by pan roasting them, then tossing them with crispy bacon and orzo, and topping with toasted panko breadcrumbs. I’m really glad I did.

But just to be safe, let’s do a quick google search just to be sure someone else hadn’t already thought of it. For a fleeting moment this Buffalo Wing Chicken Soup was my chance for fame. Sadly, it’s not my time….let’s just say it’s been done…

Orzo Salad with Peppercorn & Balsamic Poached Pears {Share the Love}
I am loving my new star ingredients from Oli+Ve, Blackberry Ginger Balsamic Vinegar. In fact I’ll be back for refills this weekend. Whenever I have the opportunity to cook for a group, small or large, I love to try something new. It’s risky (if it flops) but measuring the mmmm mmm good tells you best whether it’s a keeper or history.
