Juicy pork sausages and roasted veggies. All stuffed into a crusty bun.

You now have two choices when it comes to sausage and peppers: you can work the grill and the skillet simultaneously, or you can throw everything onto one pan and kick back with a cold one. That’s what I’m mostly about these days; the easier, the better. And when it comes out just as tasty, why the heck not? Here we’ve baked juicy sweet Italian sausages next to crunchy bell peppers, red onions, and earthy mushrooms, and stuffed them into a crusty bun with melt-y provolone and a swoon-worthy mustard sauce.

One of the most perfect summer sides to grilled me

One of the most perfect summer sides to grilled meat? These Baked Crispy Smashed Potatoes with Garlic and Rosemary. They pair with just about anything you might throw on the grill—beef, pork, poultry, or fish; portobello mushrooms if you’re off meat. Throw them in the oven while you prep and cook everything else and be treated to crispy, cozy, buttery bliss 🙌🏻

Quick and simple—with flavors that POP! 💥
.
I love quick and simple finger foods; something that’s easy to whip up on a whim when friends pop by for a few drinks. Or, something that makes for a hasty and tasty out-of-the-ordinary lunch. This Quick Tomato Confit on Toasts with @kingoscarseafood’s Sardines fits the bill for either. Think: crispy bread topped with sweet candy-like tomatoes and tangy sardines that were soaked in olive oil, white wine vinegar, and briny capers. The result is fresh, bright, and awakening.

Another Tuesday, another reason to post about taco

Another Tuesday, another reason to post about tacos 🌮

Last week I reintroduced you to our household go-to (and yes, we’re eating that tonight, AGAIN!) But today, here on Insta, I’m boasting these Blackened Shrimp Tacos with Avocado and Pineapple Salsa 🍍
.
The shrimp offer up a nice kick which is quickly tamed by the sweet and creamy morsels of pineapple and avocado. It works beautiful. It’s a mouth party. It’s a taco lovers dream. Eat up.

Sweet + Smoky Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken 👌🏻 . Why

Sweet + Smoky Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken 👌🏻
.
Why bring the flavors of summer indoors? I don’t like to snub the grill—especially in the summertime—but too often have my plans been foiled by a rainstorm or running out of propane; and sometimes it’s just easier to throw meat and veggies onto a sheet pan to toss into the oven. This BBQ Sheet Pan Chicken is a great recipe to have up your sleeve. It satisfies the craving for cookout flavors with its thick and syrupy sauce and is complete with roasted asparagus and baby potatoes.

Believe it or not, this crave-worthy Chicken Philly sandwich is a SHEET PAN MEAL 🙌🏻
.
Say hello to a sandwich you will covet: cheesy chicken, bell peppers, mushrooms, and tangy onions stuffed into a toasted hoagie. It’s the beloved chicken philly cheesesteak sandwich as we know it, but it’s made at home—in less than 30 minutes—on a sheet pan. Easy prep, little clean up, and a lot of flavor.

Just in time for lunch! 🥙
I was about to start making my post-workout sandwich when these fab pitas from @angelbakeries arrived at my doorstep. So I put my bread away and stuffed these instead! 👌🏻

By far my favorite pita bread ever. Not only are they fluffy and soft, but they’re easy to stuff. Just cut the pita in half, and there’s already a cavity ready for filling! No need to get crafty and carve your own (only to end up with holes in your pita, right?) These are also STURDY. I mean, look at my pita—there’s a lot of stuff in there 🙃
