Let’s take a peek at what’s on the table this week:

Light, zesty, and packed with flavor — this one’s perfect for spring.
Marinate the chicken ahead of time to save even more prep time.

Savory, satisfying, and a great low-carb dinner option.
Top with mozzarella or Parmesan before baking for extra richness.

Use leftover brisket or pulled pork to keep it simple.

Pan-seared and buttery with a touch of garlic — quick and satisfying.
Pair with roasted potatoes or serve over rice or noodles.

A no-bake dream dessert that feels fancy but couldn’t be easier.
Let it chill for a few hours — trust me, it’s worth the wait.

🌞 Featured Finds: Warm Weather Helpers I Love

These are a few little upgrades I’ve added to my kitchen (and backyard!) that make this season even more enjoyable.

​Snackle Box​
I pack this for road trips, picnics, and as a quick snack box to keep in the fridge at home. Fill it with fruit, crackers, cheese, and treats — it’s a hit every time.

​Charcuterie Board Set​
The one I own comes with a main tray and a small round board you can use solo or as a sidekick. Perfect for porch snacking or making a poolside spread feel a little fancy.
Prefer something simpler? This version is great too!

​Ice Ball Maker​
Most people get these for whiskey drinks, but I love them for lemonade, iced tea, and infused water. They melt slower and make every glass feel a little special.

Let me know which recipe you’re most excited about this week — or which tool you’re adding to your summer setup!

Talk soon,
