I hope you guys had an AMAAAZZZINNNGGGG 4th of July! Ours was filled with lots of red, white, and blue clothes, carnival games and food, amazing fireworks, a few beers, and - unfortunately - sunburns. 'Muuuurrriiccaaaaaa. So...this Taco Skillet. There are so. many. things. I want to say about this dish...first of all, it is probably in my top three favorite things I've ever put on The Garlic ...
2 Ingredient, 5 Minute Strawberry Frozen “Yogurt”
Right now my weather app says it is 96 degrees outside but feels like 106. My first question is, how can they measure how hot it "feels?" Seriously. How? I guess I don't have a second question. The point is...it's hot. Which is why this cold, fresh, healthy frozen yogurt is so perfect right now! This recipe today was originally supposed to be chocolate cashew butter. Why did I not post ...
Orange, Fennel, and Walnut Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette
Up until I was around 16 or 17 I hated salads. The only time I would ever eat one is if it was made up of iceberg lettuce and pools of ranch. The most adventurous I got with the vegetables was carrots and cucumbers. So because of that, I still struggle with creating really delicious and interesting salads because I didn't start experimenting until I was older...but this one is awesome! It's ...
Black Bean and Quinoa Burgers with Roasted Jalapeno Ranch
These burgers are just as good as a beef burger. Maybe even better! The seasonings in the patty make this burger so delicious. I read somewhere a looong time ago that using cumin in vegetarian cooking is a good trick because it makes things taste meatier...I could have dreamed that, but I swear I remember reading it somewhere. So because of this (possibly fake) trick, I use cumin when I am making ...
Crispy Chickpea and Edamame Oven Snack
Snacking is so much fun - it's even better when your snacks are good for you! I don't know about you, but when I want a snack, it's usually something salty I want. Better yet, something salty and crispy. Enter crispy chickpea and edamame oven snacks. These will satisfy any crunchy, salty snack craving. I love the mixture of the edamame and the chickpeas, they play off of each other so ...
30 Minute Light Shrimp Scampi
Shrimp Scampi traditionally uses a lot of butter and is eaten over pasta, so some might wonder if it is even possible to make a light version of this dish. Those people should definitely try this recipe...because it uses whole wheat pasta and only two tablespoons of butter, and you won't miss the traditional version one little bit! There is soo much flavor in this dish. And it only takes thirty ...
Pesto Grilled Vegetable Salad
Don't you love grilled vegetables? I'm not sure what it is about them, but they just taste so much better than sauteed or steamed vegetables. My love for grilled vegetables is what inspired this recipe. This is the third and final day of my pesto week! After this I will be moving onto recipes that aren't pesto-centric. And this was a good recipe to end on. The pesto flavor is very muted in this ...
Pesto Chicken Salad Pita Pockets
We are on day two out of three in our pesto week! This chicken salad pita is not only very healthy for you, it is packed with tons of flavor. The chicken is juicy and pesto-y (word?), the red onions are sharp and crisp, the arugula is fresh and peppery, and the creamy lemon pesto yogurt sauce brings a final note of brightness to the sandwich. This recipe won't make you feel like you are eating ...
Zucchini Noodles with Pesto Cream Sauce
So we are on day one of our three uses of pesto! This first recipe using our "Perfect Pesto" is this amazing pesto cream sauce. I love this sauce. I could eat it like soup...seriously. And it is SO easy to make! As for the zucchini noodles, if you don't want to go through the trouble of making those, you can absolutely just use whole wheat pasta instead. The point of this recipe is the sauce. So ...
Perfect Pesto Plus 3 Uses
Pesto is so easy to make from scratch! And it tastes sooo much better than store bought pesto, not to mention that the store bought stuff is pretty expensive considering how much you actually get. If you love pesto like I do, you should buy one of those live basil plants they sell at the grocery store and just keep it by your window. Then you always have free basil and can make pesto whenever you ...
