Loaded Potato Hot Dogs!
Why yes Diamonds, you read that title correctly. It’s as if a loaded baked potato and a perfectly grilled, juicy hot dog had a baby! For the past couple years I have ended my summer posts with a hot dog board of some sort. Last year I did cheddar, bacon, and ranch loaded hot dogs,…
THE Ultimate HOT & COLD veggie sandwich!
I really hope none of you Diamonds became distressed over me again after I said I was back because I was sort of MIA the past few weeks. I’ve been go, go, go, but in the very best way. I have welcomed another job opportunity in my life which I have been focusing on for…
A Vibrant Farm Fresh Cheese Board Loaded With Tons Of Crunch!
You can call this a charcuterie board if your heart desires, however, it’s technically not one! Charcuterie means cuts of meat and cheese, so when the board does not contain any piece of meat, it’s just a cheese board! There is absolutely nothing wrong with that though! Sometimes it’s pretty magnificent to pair different flavors…

White peaches, bright red cherries, ripe raspberries, navel oranges, and fresh aromatic basil come together in this summertime infusion!

Tomato & Cucumber Spa Day Salad!

Roasted Pepper & Ricotta Dip.
If you have bell peppers that are on the fritz, this is your sign to not throw them away! I had a craving for a cool, creamy dip to eat with mini naan breads while I enjoy the wonderful weather we’ve been experiencing. I know we think of dips as just yummy appetizers to share…
Seared Asparagus With A Romano Lemon Cream Sauce.
It is peak asparagus season and I am going to enjoy it as much as I possibly can. It’s one of my all time favorite vegetables because they go spectacular with any meal. When it comes to vegetables for most people they think about steamed, boring , tasteless food that we have to consume only…

Italian Peas & Pasta With Crispy Prosciutto.
Spring is your time to indulge in all things PEAS! I’m telling you Diamonds, peas and pasta are a match made in heaven. There’s a reason they put peas on a pedestal over in Sicily. If they’re blooming and in season they give a dish that pop of color and freshness we all desire when…
