Grilled Cheese with Pesto and Tomato

Look at this buttery, crispy, delicious sandwich.

Such an easy way to make a simple meal feel fancy. This is why my husband always asks me to make his lunches - he says his are too boring.

Black Bean Sweet Potato Enchiladas

This morning before work I decided to start some black beans in the slow cooker. I didn't know what I was going to make, I just started them knowing I need to clean out my pantry before we move (I have a large stockpile of rice and dried beans...by stockpile, I mean borderline hoarding :x). I forgot to make the rice in the end, but I'm ok with that!

Breakfast Burrito

I love my new cast iron skillet. I'm still working out the kinks and watching a lot of youtube videos on how to maintain in. That being said, I'm using it for almost everything and it's (mostly) turning out really well.

Quick Summer Salad

It's hot today. It was hot yesterday. It's going to be hot tomorrow and I don't think it's going to stop for some time.

I don't want to turn my oven on. The pilot lights are keeping the main room hot enough as it is.

What can I make for lunch that's quick, doesn't require a trip to the store, and won't require any heat whatsoever?

Answer: A refreshing summer salad!
