Goat Cheese & Mint Pesto Sandwich

Oh how much I love this Goat Cheese & Mint Pesto Sandwich. I first had it at Pinewood Social here in Nashville and it’s been in my dreams ever since. The bad news? It’s no longer on the menu. Oh the horror! What a dream crusher to have this awesome sandwich once and never be able to have it again…until today! I made my best attempt at recreating it at home. It came really really really close, so I’m happy. It’s goat cheese, mint pesto, sprouts, and thinly sliced cucumbers and apples. It sounds like nothing spectacular, but trust me, it is. It’s perfect for when you’re craving something really flavorful, but not heavy.

Mushroom Pesto Pizza

Yes, more pizza! I’m still not sick of making pizza at home. It’s so incredibly easy to make and with the variety of toppings, it’s a different pizza every time. I’m a huge mushroom fan and this Mushroom Pesto Pizza instantly caught my eye. I had a jar of pesto in the fridge and porcinis in the freezer, so there wasn’t much else for me to buy to whip this up. Love using up items in my pantry/fridge so they don’t go to waste.

Monterey Shrimp Pasta

If you follow me on social media, you would have seen my enormous cookbook collection Saturday. Well, at least part of it. I love a good cookbook. I will curl up to a cookbook like it’s a novel. I thought it was funny to mention my love of cookbooks and how my collection is a bit out of control, then give you Monterey Shrimp Pasta…because I got this recipe off the back of a box of spaghetti! I failed to mention I’m more of a recipe junkie (you should see my box of loose recipes, oy!). I find it amusing that I have all these cookbooks, yet haven’t used some of them. I’m too busy drooling over shrimp with spaghetti and big chunks of avocado!
