Volume 2 Issue 8

What's New This Week

Beat The Winter Kitchen Blues. The BBQ grill may be covered, and summer still feels far away, but that doesn't mean dinner has to be boring. We've pulled together three recipes that bring bold flavors to your table - sticky BBQ chicken (no grill needed!), a fresh take on pasta salad, and the avocado ranch dressing we can't stop making.

Oven-Baked BBQ Boneless Chicken Thigh

Sticky, sweet BBQ sauce coats perfectly tender chicken thighs - no grill needed. Ready in about 30 minutes, these thighs are a weeknight game-changer. The secret is the sauce and cooking method, giving you restaurant-quality results right in your oven.

BLT Pasta Salad

We turned everyone's favorite sandwich into a fresh pasta salad. Crispy bacon, juicy tomatoes, and crunchy lettuce with tender pasta create the perfect side dish. Perfect warm or cold, it's a bright addition to any winter meal. Pro tip: Cook your pasta al dente - it holds up better when tossed with the dressing.

Creamy Avocado Ranch Dressing

Skip the bottle and make this instead. Fresh herbs and ripe avocado create a dressing that's good on everything from salads to sandwiches. Make extra - you'll want to drizzle it on everything all week long.
