Lunch! I think we all get bored with our lunch choices from time to time. Right? I think it started in grade school… with all those scrunched P.B.& J. sandwiches in our lunch boxes…don’t you? Gah!!! Now lunch time rolls around and we stand in front of the fridge expecting something spectacular to jump out at us….so we wait…we stare…and we wait! Sigh…What can we do? Well, we can treat ourselves by having this amazingly easy and delicious California Club Turkey Wrap! Takes about 10 minutes from start to finish and you’ll feel like your treating yourself to lunch out…and we ALL deserve that from time to time. Bonus…I even tell you how to kick it up a notch so you can have them for dinner too!
Soups, Salads, & Sandwiches
I have a love-hate relationship with BBQ. Which is why I created this delicious slow cooker pulled pork sandwich. It’s my “go-to” recipe for large Family Parties or Summer BBQ’s. The classic coleslaw on top of the pulled pork, combined with the BBQ sauce, makes for one AMAZING juicy lip smacking sandwich! You’re gonna love it…and so will the relatives! Hope ya don’t mind them hanging around…lol
I’m sharing our very favorite pasta salad today! The birds at this Nest L.O.V.E. this tortellini olive salad…especially the “Big Bird”! It’s his all time favorite salad… EVER! Every time I take him to the market he will ask me if I’m buying the ingredients to make it. I can never say “No!”. It’s just too easy to make… and, Okay FINE! It’s my favorite too! (Let’s not tell him…it would make me seem so selfish! lol) We never tire of this recipe. Careful…you may get hooked too!
Cold enough out there for you? Craving a hot warm hearty bowl of Soup? One that is more than just a bowl of soup, a meal? I’ve got just the recipe! It’s chocked full of beef, noodles, rich Italian broth, and topped with cheese and fresh basil. This deliciously rich and flavorful Italian Beefy Noodle Soup is easy to make. It’s the perfect winter meal. Throw in a side of garlic Parmesan bread sticks for dunking and it’s over the top Fab!
It’s playoff time folks! That means GREAT eats with no guilt! Love wings, but love a great sandwich too? How about if we combine the two and have this mouth-watering Buffalo Bleu Cheese Chicken Sandwich! My husband L.O.V.E.D. this sandwich so much he had a second one! Wowza! It’s juicy and tender and best of all…packed with flavor!
I’m kicking off this cold Monday with one of my all time favorite Pinterest finds! Crock Pot Loaded Potato Soup! It’s quick. It’s easy. It’s delicious! If you don’t think you can cook… this is your recipe! It’s rich, creamy, and the perfect comfort food for a cold winters day. I like to call it “snow day” soup but, you can just call it wonderful!
I’m starting 2017 off with this beautiful healthy (it has green in it) delicious Shrimp Taco Salad! This is my own creation and I’m pretty darn proud of it! If I do say so myself. It’s light and packed full of amazing flavors. Starting with the marinated fresh shrimp down to the creamy lime avocado cilantro dressing! Get ready to have a flavor party in your mouth! It’s divine and super easy!
I made an executive North Pole decision! I decided the Santa at your Nest would rather have hot tender Italian flavored Roast Beef Sandwiches on toasted hoagie rolls with melted provolone cheese, sauteed onions, sweet peppers, and mushrooms, than sugar cookies and milk! I’m not saying it’s cause I don’t have my Christmas cookies ready to post…NOPE…that’s not it at all! Come on admit it…your Santa would rather have one of these sandwiches any way. Right?!!!
Finding time to make dinner for the family isn’t always easy this time of the year! We’re all up to our eyebrows in tinsel and sugar cookies! If there were just a few more hours in the day Santa and his missing elves (notice how there are no elves when you are playing Santa?) could whip up an amazing meal! Well, I’m here to help! Wouldn’t this big warm comforting yummy bowl of Taco Soup be wonderful for dinner tonight?! Best part…it’s ready in 30 minutes! Shoot… even the “missing elves” could make this one! 😉
I love chopped salads loaded with all kinds of amazing flavorful ingredients. This Chopped Autumn Harvest Salad is THAT salad! Chopped romaine lettuce is paired with dried cherry flavored cranberries, candied pecans, feta cheese, fresh chopped apples, crispy breaded chicken tenders and bacon. BACON!!! How can you go wrong with a salad that has bacon? Not possible! Top that all off with an amazingly easy and delicious creamy poppy seed balsamic dressing and you have my new FAVORITE fall Salad! I think we are going to be Besties!
