Spinach Pesto Grilled Cheese is stuffed with delicious smoked gouda cheese, spinach, and a homemade spinach pesto - it's to die for! Anyone who knows me knows that I love me some cheese. Grilled cheese, cubed cheese, blue cheese, herbed cheese, fried cheese, straight up cheese from the package..... I have never met a cheese that I didn't like, ever. I often think about how I could spice up my grilled cheese aka the perfect sandwich. Often I use pesto on my sandwiches, but since I didn't have any basil, I thought maybe I could make a spinach pesto. Turns out I was right and pretty much ...

Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks
A couple months ago I decided to splurge and get a stand mixer. Regretfully I didn’t buy a KitchenAid off the bat, but a mid range model and I thought it would be just fine. I actually found it on sale, which seemed even better. This was the first recipe I tested out with it. Not the Cheesy Breadsticks themselves, but the dough I used to make them. One of the reasons I wanted a stand mixer was because I love making homemade pizzas and breads, but it’s hard when you have to do all the kneading by hand. So, I set into this recipe with my new stand mixer, and slowly, ...
Caprese Panini with Tomato, Pesto & Mozzarella
This sandwich is seriously delicious. Not even going to sugar coat it or build it up, it is to.die.for. Make this for lunch, make it for dinner. Don’t wait, do it now. I was picking up my usual at Costco last week: quinoa, lettuce, and some pictures I had ordered, and while making my way back to the produce section, I passed by a ‘bread roadshow'. Basically someone was in the store, slicing up pieces of crusty bread and giving them out as samples. I passed by and noticed there was a huge crowd of people around them but why all the commotion? After I grabbed my huge bag ...
Spinach and Artichoke Pizza
For as long as I can remember, I have been obsessed with spinach and artichoke anything. When I moved to New York, I stumbled upon a pizza joint called Artichoke, and it was love at first site. Their pizza is amazing. Think super thick crust, hot cheesy spinach and artichoke dip spread over the dough, and baked with cheese on top. It is sooooo good. No matter how hard I try, I don't think I will ever be able to replicate their delicious recipe. If you are in New York City, you MUST stop by there and get a slice of artichoke pizza. MUST. ...
