Kale Salad with Red Wine Vinaigrette & Meal Planning

Is anyone tired of kale yet? I’m not! It’s one of my weekly staples in my CSA box and I love it! I usually sauté it, use it in smoothies or chop it thinly and enjoy it as a salad. Occasionally I’ll look for a good recipe incorporating kale just to change things up- it’s…

Grilled Radicchio Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette

I don’t get a chance to watch daytime TV very often but I do love when I am able to catch the Chew on ABC. If you’re not familiar with the Chew, it’s a talk show/cooking show on ABC. I personally love it because it focuses on food more than anything else.

Baby Greens with Pear & Brie and an Apricot Balsamic Dressing

Once you get a chance to make those yummy nuts I previously posted, you can throw this simple salad together in no time. I had very little vegetables on hand when I made it, but I kind of like the simplicity of the 4 ingredients. Even a fancy salad can come together in minutes. Why…
