The PNW is known for great, fresh salmon and they are right! It is too bad that salmon is one of my least favorite options. Growing up I loved it so much – my grandad used to make this amazing smoked salmon on the grill on a weekly basis and I still remember always askingContinue reading “Teriyaki Salmon + Veggies”

Peach Prosciutto Burrata Salad
I am not going to claim this recipe as a 100% original thought – I have seen many people putting together similar flavor combinations with peaches being a huge foodie vibe this summer. I will however say that I have never seen anyone put all of these ingredients together in one dish – so thatContinue reading “Peach Prosciutto Burrata Salad”
