For these Caesar Chicken Salad Croissants I let my good friend the slow cooker do most of the work.  Who wants to put much effort in these days anyway?  The kids are out of school, demanding snacks on the hour and it’s too hot to cook!  We’ve been eating outdoors most nights unless the wasps come by in swarms and packing picnics whenever possible on the weekends.  Our town has revamped our spray park so now we just head on down with our picnic blanket, food in tow and call it a day!

When life gets hectic I always seem to find myself in a rut when dinner rolls around. I get bored of chicken and steak marinated in the same old ingredients and often find myself looking for new flavors to make my meals more exciting. Did you know that salad dressing also doubles up as the perfect meat marinade? Any sort of olive oil based dressing will help to flavor your meats and tenderize the meat for a more delicious meal! If you try these delicious Chimichurri Steak Skewers you’ll discover exactly what I’m talking about!

Fish tacos are the unofficial supper of summer and a quick, tasty meal any time of year! It’s simple to grill fresh fish filets, alongside seasonal veggies, and the creative combinations seem to never end! Today, zucchini, tomatoes and peppers (plus cabbage for crunch) take a turn in my Grilled Hoki Fish Tacos. This amazing 20-minute meal will make even more waves and earn even more raves thanks to the robust, full flavor of creamy Cotija Cilantro Dressing spooned on top.
