You ALL know about my obsession with sauces. It’s no secret. My husband says I eat just so that I can have sauce, and he may be right. So let’s take a look at one of my all-time faves, a sauce that is almost always in my refrigerator!
Easy Thai Peanut Sauce.
And if I can make it in less than 10 minutes, so can you!

After what felt like the longest winter on the books, Spring has finally sprung and with it has come my favorite vegetable – asparagus! When I first met my husband, he wasn’t much of a vegetable guy. He considered iceberg lettuce to be a perfectly acceptable salad and the occasional baby carrot was about the extent of his veggie intake. Being a vegetarian at the time, I of course, was a totally different story. He was a good sport though, and gamely put up with my veggie loving self, eventually learning to eat and enjoy veggies, too. One of the earliest veggies I started to make for him (and a total staple in our house now) was asparagus. It’s fantastic simply roasted with olive oil and a little salt and pepper. It’s also great when dressed up a little, like in our all new recipe for Asparagus with Pistachio Citrus Gremolata.

So when I asked earlier this fall, you all told me you wanted soup. Soup, soup, and more soup. And I won’t lie, soup may be the most perfect fall comfort food ever (see a list of our favorites at the bottom of this post). But y’all know me, and you know how much I like my toppings, so of course we needed to come up with more toppings for soup! We brought you Cumin Sour Cream last week, this week we bring you Easy Brown Butter Parmesan Croutons.

Fall is officially here and I just harvested the last butternut squash from my garden. And although I do LOVE a good butternut squash soup (like this Thai Butternut Squash Soup), I was looking for something just a little bit different to do with my last butternut squash of the season (well, at least my last home grown butternut squash). Enter Butternut Squash Fries with Sriracha Mayo. Because vegetables should not be complicated.

All of our Instagram followers are probably laughing right now. Me and my salads (if you haven’t checked them out, head to our feed!). But I won’t apologize! My salads are taking all of the amazing summer produce and making them shine. This Grilled Buffalo Chicken Salad with Blue Cheese Dressing will check all of the boxes. (And stay tuned for the Salad-in-a-Jar recipe posts later this summer-these are my new obsession!) Eating the rainbow has never been more fun!

By now, most of you know that I have quit my beloved Diet Coke. Big Deal. Really Big Deal. I am well known for my ability to drink gallons of it. I have also been known to go out of my way to stop while on vacation, before work, in the middle of kids’ activities, even running downstairs right before going to bed to grab one. I could be counted on to have a Diet Coke on me at all times. More about my great restraint coming up (spoiler alert-you can do it too!), but clearly I needed something to replace some of the caffeine with. Although I was only a fair weather coffee drinker at best, I have found that a cup of Cold Press Coffee with this Caramel Coffee Syrup has easily replaced my morning Diet Coke. (and I have grown to LOVE it!) Read further to find out how I did it!

I’m over winter. Officially over winter. After getting a foot of snow here in Minneapolis last weekend, I am begging it to stop. I’m screaming uncle.
