Chicken Fajita Salad with Green Olive Salsa Verde

By now I think you guys kinda know I have a thing for big ass salads, right? Oh, and for anything Mexican-food-style. Oh, and super tasty and full of flavor. Yeah, okay, I knew that you knew that already 😉

Well, I’m obviously in love with these California Green Ripe Olives from Lindsay Olives’ Naturals line. They are legit just olives, water, and salt. No weird shit in it. And they melt in yo mouth like buttah!…

Feta-Olive Bison Sliders

Whip up a batch of these Feta-Olive Bison Sliders for your next BBQ or summer party! They’re gluten free, low carb, keto, and DELICIOUS!

I partnered with my friends at Lindsay Olives to make this recipe. As always, all opinions are my own!

Well…. it’s officially summertime and that means it’s officially burger season! I don’t know about you, but I never get tired of a good burger. There are literally SO MANY combos you can make using different proteins and flavor add-ins. These feta-olive bison sliders are packed with allll the flavors: feta, Mediterranean Medley olives from Lindsay Olives, fresh garlic, fresh herbs (I used flat leaf parsley, cilantro, and mint!), and a fun secret ingredient, lemon zest!

Although I used bison for this recipe, I have used grass fed ground beef as well as half ground beef and half ground pork. And, I’m sure lamb, chicken, and turkey would all work really well too! So, have at it and use any of those!…

How to Throw an Epic DIY Taco Bar Party + Guacamole Recipe

May 4, 2017 By Natasha Leave a Comment

Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner, like literally tomorrow! I created a simple and delicious guacamole recipe that you can make for your gathering, plus a fun menu for an epic DIY taco bar party!

I don’t know why, but Cinco de Mayo is one of my favorite holidays to have fun with good friends and good food! One of my friends who is from Mexico asked me why us Americans like to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Well, I don’t know about you, but I love the flavors of Mexican food, and any excuse to have a celebration and diy taco bar party with my friends!

And just to clarify, I know that Cinco de Mayo isn’t Independence Day in Mexico. It’s actually the celebration of the battle the Mexican army won against the French army in the state of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

For whatever the reason, Americans celebrate Cinco de Mayo hard AF! (ALLL the tacos!)…

Salsa Verde Chicken

This salsa verde chicken is the perfect filling for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and chilaquiles. Plus it’s super freezer-friendly for make ahead meals!

This post was created in partnership with my friends from KitchenAid! Prep was super simple thanks to my KitchenAid® Artisan® Mini Stand Mixer and with Food Processor attachment. They supplied me with their product, but all opinions are always my own.

I know there are a million recipes on the inter-webs for salsa verde chicken, and I’m not really reinventing the wheel here. I’ve seen recipes that use slow cookers, pressure cookers, oven baked and made on the stove top. I opted to just do this one on the stove top since I wasn’t too concerned about this recipe being hands off….

Cilantro Chimichurri

Get ready to put this ish on EVERYTHING! If you like cilantro as much as I do, this cilantro chimichurri will become your new BFF!

Okay, here’s the deal… my love for cilantro runs deep. So deep that my blood is probably green. Okay, maybe not that deep. But you get it. Plus, I don’t love parsley very much. So, when making a chimichurri, I just had to do an all cilantro version. I know, I know, this is not a totally authentic Argentinian version, so there’s that. This cilantro chimichurri is packed with tons of fresh, herb-y flavor from the cilantro and garlic….

Super Seedy and Nutty Granola

Super Seedy Granola

Seeds, seeds, and more seeds. Chia. Hemp. Watermelon. Flax. And nuts, nuts, and more nuts. Almonds. Cashews. Pistachios. Walnuts. That’s what you’ll find in this super seedy and nutty granola! I wanted to throw together an oatmeal-free granola, that was low in carbs, and high in healthy fats with a good amount of protein. Even though oatmeal is technically gluten free since it’s just rolled oats, they are typically processed on the same equipment as the gluten grains and therefore cross contaminated. I know you can find certified gluten free brands on the market as well, but I just wanted to eliminate them altogether….
