Good (Food) Reads

Oh you guys, there are soooo many goodies for this week’s Good (Food) Reads that I think we just need to dive right in!

This recipe is for Lane, who LOVES a go0d chimichurri! Grilled Skirt Steak with Chimichurri from Half Baked Harvest. I’ve really been loving Tieghan’s blog lately and am blown away by how young she is and how great her site is. Definitely check it out!

Loaded Greek Quinoa Salad (also from HBH). I told you guys that I was really loving this blog lately. Can’t wait to make this one for a healthy, colorful dinner. I love to make a big batch of quinoa in my pressure cooker for the week and this would be a perfect excuse to double it up.

Crab Cakes, Baltimore Style with Remoulade Sauce. A cajun take on an east coast classic from the NYT. I am really particular about my crab cakes (I’m obsessed with the crab cakes at Legal Seafoods in Boston. They are THE BEST.) and these seem like a fun take on the original.

Throw away all of those articles on how to clean your sheet pan. Check out this article on epicurious on why we should be embracing those seasoned old pans. The lazy girl in me loves stuff like this!

Grilled Lemon Pepper Chicken Kabobs from local favorite, A Farmgirl’s Dabbles. I’m always looking for summer grilling recipes and this one is right up my alley. I will probably skip the pre-seasoned chicken and use organic free range chicken with some lemon pepper seasoning but otherwise, what an easy option for a weeknight dinner!

Arepas!!! As mentioned in the post, Minneapolis has fallen in love with these South American treats thanks to local cult favorite, Hola Arepa. Lindsay from Pinch of Yum takes on my new obsession here.

I’m super intrigued by this recipe for Slow Cooker Lo Mein from Damn Delicious. Has anyone tried it? Do the noodles get mushy?

Well, that’s what we’ve got for you this week. Send us your foodie favorites on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram!
