I remember my moms sloppy joes back in the day. Usually ground beef with a sloppy tomato sauce on white buns and a side of mac n cheese. Although I love those, I’m really really happy to have a healthy and equally as tasty version.

My French obsession is still ever-growing. Binging all of Emily in Paris over the winter started something I didn’t know about myself. After learning to make coq au vin, cutting my hair into a French bob, and attempting to learn French on Duolingo.. I’m now expanding into a French 75 cocktail.

My essentials for a bright spring day.

We’re always excited to try new lemon chicken recipes but lately, we’ve been fully obsessed with this one — the veggie couscous adds a really fun texture and bright flavor from the dressing.
