I 🖤 eggplant. This dish was so simple yet seriously tasty. Seared eggplant on high, added soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar and ginger. https://www.instagram.com/p/B2WqTq_BRcU/?igshid=qq24yxg2tdwv

My slow cooked tomatillo pork makes me a very happy camper. Why? Because it’s only 4 ingredients, is delicious in a variety of meals (sandwiches, quesadillas, with rice and veggies, pizza, tacos and more) and makes for great leftovers. How can you get better than that? You can’t.

What makes ravioli even better? Pesto + Cream + Parmesan Cheese This is one of the easiest and tastiest dinners you could make. I used @cappellos grain free raviolis so it’s a great option for those who can’t eat gluten 💃🏻 Another suggestion is using high quality pre-made pesto. My favorite is from @bluemoose 🙌 .............

Hash is one of my husband’s favorite foods. This one is especially great (for me) because it’s a one sheet wonder. I love meals where I put all of the ingredients on a baking sheet and cook. Simple cooking is my mantra. This recipe and more included in my Weekly Meal Plans.

This is the year of exciting things to come! https://www.instagram.com/p/B1JPDXvBunT/?igshid=8u3kaj3mpoa8
