Easy Summer Quinoa Salad w/ Vinaigrette
Welcome to the weekend! I was actually going to post this recipe for Cinco De Mayo, but my laptop screen ended up getting cracked sadly, so I wasn’t able to finish the post until now. Fortunately, my sister and brother-in-law let me borrow their MacBook Air for the week, so I was able to edit the photos and get this post going. Yay! Anyways, this is a staple in my household. I have been making this cold quinoa salad for years, and the ingredients have evolved over time.

Mediterranean Chicken Wrap with Homemade Hummus
This is a delicious lunch wrap that I created last year in 2020. It was November and I was living in Austin, Texas. For my 29th birthday, my best friend and I went downtown to have a fun picnic right by the river.

Whole 30 Sweet Potato Chili
This is a recipe I created many years ago, when I decided to do the Whole 30. I wanted a delicious, flavorful, and hearty meal, and I modified a regular recipe to be Whole 30 approved. I have added a couple things since then, like beans, and it is still one of my favorite chili’s to this day. If you do want to make it Whole 30 approved, just omit the beans, and make sure your broths have no sugar added etc. It has few ingredients and takes only about 10-15 minutes to prepare.
