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 ...

Baked Caprese Pasta
Y’all, I’d like to say I am a pretty modest person. I mean, I have no problem admitting when I am awesome, but for the most part, I don’t like to go on and on about myself. This recipe, however, I am going to go on and on about. Do you ever feel like you have totally outdone yourself with something? Well, this is one of those times. This Baked Caprese Pasta is just SO delicious, I really can’t think of many pasta dishes that are as great. I probably shouldn’t say that, because I have lots of delicious pasta dishes on my blog, BUT this one is seriously delicious. It uses ...
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 ...
Arugula Lemon Pesto
Last week I was browsing at the grocery store when I noticed a big container of Spicy Wasabi Arugula on sale. Regularly $6, I snatched it up for just under $2 and didn't look back. But Wasabi Arugula....what could I use this for? I recalled the spinach pesto I made for grilled cheeses not too long ago, and thought I could probably use this arugula and do a pesto with it.....pesto doesn't always have to be made with basil, right? So I figure this pesto can be made with any type of arugula, or green leafy veggie. I also wanted to cut down on the oil a ...
Feta Pesto Margarita Pizza
I was talking with some friends recently about the wonderful pizza's that can be purchased at Costco. They are huge, tasty, and under $10, which to me, is awesome and amazing. Sometimes I go to Costco just to get the pizza....I don't know why people stare at me when I get in line and that is the only thing I have in my cart. Self control, people! My favorite pizza at our local Costco is one with Pesto, tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil. You can bring it home, bake it, and then enjoy it with no mess or hassle. It's 16 inches of pure ...
