Ready to serve in a few simple steps, Grilled Camembert with Balsamic Macerated Berries is a foolproof dish that will have you seeing stars (and stripes.)

Grilled Peach and Halloumi Panzanella
Grilled Peach and Halloumi Panzanella. This summer salad includes a mix of quickly grilled peaches, halloumi cheese, and ciabatta bread croutons that are tossed with fresh basil, red onions, and a simple white balsamic vinaigrette. It looks and tastes fancy, but it only takes less than a half-hour to prepare! I placed this platter on…

Slow Cooker Ancho Coffee Shredded Beef
I’m trying to be a glass-half-full sort of person, so instead of apologizing that this Slow Cooker Ancho Coffee Shredded Beef recipe wasn’t out in time for you to pile it into your Cinco de Mayo tacos, I’m going to say that I’m doing a public service by sharing it with you SO FAR AHEAD…
Balsamic-Red Wine Roasted Chicken Thighs and Vegetables

I avoided them at all costs, up until my twenties when I realized that so many recipes…

Warm Balsamic Steak and Vegetable Medley
Let me be upfront with you: I had no idea what to call this dish, so if the name of the recipe sounds ridiculous, I’m sorry. At first I was thinking of calling it a “salad” because it technically is one, but I thought that could give people a different impression than what you actually…
Roasted Honey Balsamic Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Pomegranate Seeds
Seeing as it’s getting to be “that time of the year”, I feel like I should let you know about one thing I’m particularly thankful for: the fact that I never was served brussels sprouts as a kid. Â I don’t know what it is about parents, but they seem to go through a phase once…
Watermelon Bruschetta with Whipped Feta, Basil, and Balsamic Drizzle
As you might already know, this weekend James and I went to North Carolina to visit my cousin Ashley and her fiancé Evan, and just as I promised, you’re going to hear a lot about it in the next few weeks, starting right now. First of all, let me just say that Mother Nature…
