Per usual, we love sauce and double the dressing for our slaw. Nut allergies? Leave them out.

Creamy Cesar Salad Dressing
Add everything to a bowl and whisk it all together, or throw it all into a mason jar and shake. If it is too thick, add a little water.
Cranberry Basil Sangria
This is a great option for the winter months. Garnishing with fresh cranberries gives it that holiday feel. You can omit the wine if you want to make this a mocktail or substitute cranberries for frozen blueberries or raspberries.
Easy Vodka Sauce
So easy and so good. Any pasta works, but we prefer either gnocchi, rigatoni or penne.
Espresso Martini
Make it to your liking – less vodka, more Kahlua – there is no wrong answer here!
Blood Orange Margarita
If you are lucky enough to find it, there is blood orange juice! Buy it, use it and enjoy the ease of making this without squeezing oranges. You can also substitute regular oranges or orange juice.
Spicy Thai Noodles
It’s like eating great takeout but much better. This meal comes together so quickly that it’s a perfect weeknight meal. Make extra – it’s good the next day.
Quick and Easy Paella
The best part of this dish is, hands down, the crispy rice at the bottom – make sure you scrape that off into your leftovers. You can also forget your candles. Your house will smell much better with this.
Potato Gnocchi with Vodka Sauce
These are amazing – like little pockets of heaven, definitely worth making them homemade.
Pan Seared Boneless Pork Chops with Honey Garlic Sauce (Glaze)
This is a quick and easy meal that looks and tastes like you spent hours making it! Honestly, these are so good you should not expect leftovers!
