Tomato and Spinach Balsamic Orzo Recipe

It's no secret. My nine year old, Ella is a super picky eater. Even though she's picky, I can't complain a whole lot. She dislikes pizza, chips and other foods that kids usually love, and loves fruits, veggies, salads and pastas. Dinner is a struggle, so we decided to get in the kitchen and start cooking together.

It's been a long time... but I'm super excited to announce Restaurant Reviews are back! In addition to recipes and books, I'm also bringing back restaurant posts and adding some travel posts as well!

First up is Lo-Lo's Chicken and Waffles! I recently visited Phoenix with my boyfriend and this amazing restaurant was our first foodie stop! I'm a huge soul food lover, but there's not a lot of it to be found in Minnesota, especially good, authentic soul food!

Slow Cooker Brown Sugar Balsamic Shredded Pork Sandwiches Recipe

A sweet and tangy recipe that's perfect for lunch, dinner or even potlucks! So simple and tasty!

I must confess. I have a huge obsession with balsamic vinegar. Well, any vinegar really, but especially balsamic. Tonight for a snack, I sliced some grape tomatoes, sprinkled with salt and pepper, and topped with some Trader Joe's Balsamic. Oh so good. Balsamic reduction is even better, but I'll use it right out of the bottle when I don't have extra time. My sister Shantel and I would even drink it by the spoonful. I'm so serious! Haha!
