Our Favorite, No-Brainer Side Dish

Sweet Summer Roasted Vegetables

A few weeks ago I mentioned one of my favorite summer side dishes… These delicious, sweet roasted vegetables. I’ve now added the step-by-step recipe over on the recipe section of Kevin & Amanda. I love it because my side dishes are often an afterthought, but with this, you can keep all the ingredients on hand to quickly throw together a complementing side dish that goes with everything. And the bright colors make a beautiful presentation! Best of all, it couldn’t be easier to whip up. The sweetness of the corn and bell pepper really shine in this recipe, so if you’re not usually a big fan of vegetables… Try these! :) We’re having it this week with our favorite salmon.

Zucchini & Bacon Three Cheese Lasagna

Zucchini & Bacon Three Cheese Lasagna

Since I planted eight zucchini plants this year, I have plenty of zucchini right about now! This is one of my absolute favorite zucchini recipes, and I know you’ll love it too. Even if you’re not so sure about zucchini, give this one a try. This delicious, cheesy, ooey gooey lasagna is so yummy! It may sound weird, but to me zucchini is great at taking on other flavors and completely enhancing them! And with plenty of bacon, three types of cheese, and a little pinch of nutmeg, how can you go wrong?? :) It’s just bursting with flavor. Plus, it’s fun to make and really impressive because you get to toss around phrases like “fontina cheese”, “freshly grated nutmeg” and “Oh, I’m just whipping up a béchamel sauce!”

Dinner, this week . . .

Grilled Chicken & Pepperocini Pasta

Grilled Chicken & Pepperoncini Pasta. I love pepperocinis. I love pasta.  I can’t wait to try this. I might make mine a cream sauce. *blush* And I’ll probably use a rotisserie chicken instead of grilled chicken. The bacon-peppercorn rotisserie chicken from Publix is delicious. I’m not saying I’ve never eaten it on the way home, either.

Breakfast Quesadillas. Breakfast. In a quesadilla. Oh yes, please. This is “breakfast for supper” at it’s finest.

Bacon & Basil Gnocchi

Bacon & Basil Gnocchi. Cute little homemade ricotta gnocchi, in a bacon & basil cream sauce. Sounds delicious!

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Brownie Cupcakes. Sigh. Groan. Faint. Facepalm. That’s all I can say.
