    Taco Salad with Crispy Homemade Taco Shells

    July 24, 2023 /

    I am a taco salad junkie and with the crispy homemade taco shells, these are like ordering it from a restaurant. I am all about the restaurant-quality easy weeknight meals at home and this is exactly that! In fact, that is exactly why I came up with this recipe. I was having such a taste for a taco salad in that crispy homemade taco shell from my favorite Mexican spot. I was tasting it for days and there was no time to get over there to order one. Then I thought, wait, you can make it! So, here we go… How did I get the shell right? In the testing of this recipe…

    The Best Potato Salad Ever

    May 31, 2023 /

    This is my Dad’s famous potato salad recipe and I do mean famous for real. It was always the craze at parties and everyone always wanted him to bring it or make it. This will quickly become your Summer go to side and all of your family and friends will be asking you to bring it their houses. You are probably like yea, yea, yea… everyone thinks that what they grew up with is the best. But truly, this is not only my opinion. When so many people say how amazing it is, that they miss this dish, that they love this dish… that is how you know it is truly special. That…

    Farro Salad

    August 22, 2022 /

    This salad is light, delicious and perfect as a side dish or light lunch. It accompanies heavier dishes like steaks and chops as well as a light piece of grilled chicken. You can also make this for lunch and have a satisfying and delightful day! What is Farro? Farro is actually not only one ancient grain, yet three. We mostly see it used in Italian cooking. In Italian Farro means, “ancient wheat grain”.  It has been around for so many years and like so many other things are really making a comeback. People are realizing that it has a beautiful depth of flavor and can go with so many different flavor combinations. In…

    Grilled Steak Salad

    June 1, 2022 /

    This Grilled Steak Salad is AMAZING!! It is salty, creamy, tangy, smokey and will satisfy every grilling craving you have!!       I am so excited to be in grilling season again. When you live in the suburbs of Chicago, as we do… or anywhere that is cold a good part of the year. You get very excited when it is not cold anymore! I long for Summer days of being outside with the kids, having the sun still be out at 7p, playing in the water, and most exciting of all… Grilling! I feel like there is nothing like the smell of a grill heating up or charcoal burning. There is…

    Southwestern Corn Salad

    October 1, 2020 /

    I absolutely love corn, especially in late Summer, early Fall as it is as fresh as can be.  Always looking for amazing side dishes to make when I make tacos. Usually I do my go to guacamole, that by the way, my 3 years made almost 100% by herself last night. That is how many times we have made it. She can tell you everything that goes into it and do the steps to put it all together. I cut the avocados, obviously, but she is getting very good at it. Anyway, I am always looking for other side dishes beside the guac to go with the taco dinner. We like rice and…

Weekend highlights!!! 

What a fun weekend we had!! 

Friday was dinner @giostrabyfabioviviani in South Barrington with our sister/brothers-in-law! 

Then a little escape room action,(which we did not escape, but still had fun)! @mastermindescapegames in Schaumburg 

Saturday the girls had an amazing competition weekend taking 1st overall for their duet! And placing in the top 5 for all their small group dances! 

We made pasta in a garlic bread bowl for the 1st time and it was Amazing!!! 🤩 

Sunday was a chill day, much needed and a trip to the nail salon in the living room! 💕

Ready for the week!!
