Lemon Rosemary White Bean Dip

May 21, 2019 By Lane 4 Comments

Here in Minneapolis we finally saw our first 80 degree day.  Everyone flocked outside to take advantage of the amazing sunshine.  People congregated on driveways, at parks, around our 10,000+ lakes.  Just so dang happy to be outside!

But as the temperatures go up, and everyone gathers outside, snacks are needed.  Like this Lemon Rosemary White Bean Dip made with Fresh Crush Rosemary Olive Oil from the Queen Creek Olive Mill. Perfect for a summer gathering (or really ANY gathering).

Don’t trust me?  It’ll take you FIVE minutes to make it this delicious dip and you can see for yourself!

Double Chocolate Olive Oil Brownies

February 26, 2019 By Lane 2 Comments

The Whole30 is over for me, and although I am eating a much more healthy diet (give me all of the fruits and vegetables!) I am finding that a little indulgence goes a long way, and is SO needed from time to time.  Take these Double Chocolate Olive Oil Brownies for example.  Each brownie has a crackly top, a fudgy, chewy interior, and chocolate for days.  And they’re made with my secret weapon from Queen Creek Olive Mill!  Bet you can’t eat just one! (head directly to the bottom of the post for your new favorite recipe).

Grilled Shrimp Skewers with Jalapeño Chimichurri

May 22, 2018 By Lane 47 Comments

Summer is here and I just can’t stay away from the grill.  Seems like now that the weather is warm, everything needs grill marks, and everything needs to be eaten outside.  Am I right?  We are lucky enough to partner with Queen Creek Olive Mill, and in my mail a few weeks ago was a bottle of their amazing Fresh Crush Jalapeño Olive Oil.  I was having a hard time narrowing down the million ideas I came up with to use this oil, but I finally settled on these Grilled Shrimp Skewers with Jalapeño Chimichurri.  Quick, easy and delicious.  Try them for yourself!  Or better yet, make them for a friend-they will thank you!

Good Food Reads: Queen Creek Olive Mill

April 6, 2018 By Lane 3 Comments

“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams” -Eleanor Roosevelt.

I am a sucker for a good story.  And as I’m currently on Spring Break in sunny Arizona, I’ve had plenty of time to be introspective. This is one of those feel good stories that I just couldn’t help passing on to you. This is the story of the Queen Creek Olive Mill, and why you NEED to visit on your next trip to the Phoenix area!

Bacon Olive Oil Smashed Potatoes

November 14, 2017 By Holly 27 Comments

I am a carb addict. It’s true. A few years ago, I tried to do the whole low-carb thing and let’s just say, I wasn’t a pleasant person for a while. I have no problems passing up a tray of sweets, but salty carbs? Don’t get in my way. That is especially true for roasted potatoes. I love them prepared just about any way, but these Bacon Olive Oil Smashed Potatoes are my new favorite thing. As some of you may know, we’ve partnered with Queen Creek Olive Mill in Arizona to feature some of their amazing oils and vinegars throughout the year. We have been long time fans of their amazing products and I make it a point to get out to the olive mill each time I’m in the Phoenix area (I have serious cravings for the prickly pear lemonade and the olive oil cupcakes!). They recently sent us some fun product to try and the first thing I couldn’t wait to use was their amazing Bacon Olive Oil. You guys, I have been putting this stuff on everything. It’s such an easy way to add that great savory bacon flavor to eggs, salads, or in this case, potatoes. …

A Moveable Feast: Grilled Peach and Arugula Salad

July 26, 2017 By Holly 15 Comments

EDIT Web Grilled PeachWell, this is post is officially a day later than I had hoped but I guess that’s what happens when you head out of town and forget your laptop charger. Oops! With a few days away from work and no plans in hand, my husband and I made a last minute decision to head to his family’s cabin in the northern Minnesota lake country. We invited some friends to join us and had a great couple of days of sun, sand, water, and some good food. I love the simplicity of summer foods – marinades and grilled chicken or burgers, fresh fish, and plenty of salads. As part of our Southern themed dinner party earlier this summer, Lane and I tossed together this Grilled Peach and Arugula Salad to lighten up an otherwise heavy menu….
