TUNA PASTA SALAD

Last week I posted pictures of a picnic tablescape that I had planned for the summer. One of the food items I had prepared was a Tuna Pasta Salad which was absolutely delicious and so easy to make. It is the perfect picnic/summer/no fuss food because it doesn’t take long to put together (you can essentially cut up all your items while the pasta boils) and it can be eaten at room temperature. No heating = win win!

This is the perfect dish for your next picnic, potluck or even for this weeks lunch! Scroll down below for some preparation tips and the recipe.

TORTILLA PINWHEELS

These tortilla pinwheels are such an easy thing to whip up if you need a quick appetizer. I’ve created two recipes below which you can follow or change up with your own ideas! I love this appetizer because you can essentially customize it in multiple ways. Also this can be more than just an appetizer – makes a great lunch or snack in general!

I have to be honest with you – these guys do not photograph well! I haven’t encountered this often but I promise they are more delicious than they seem – especially the spinach smoked salmon (my fav!). Don’t judge a book by its cover!

ROASTED GARLIC GUACAMOLE DIP

Our household obsession for avocados has officially reached new heights and I’m definitely not mad about it! My husband and I were grocery shopping the other day and I picked up an avocado to purchase, looked at it for 2 seconds and placed it in our cart. I wish I had a picture of this avocado but it was essentially the size of half my head. Not my hand…not my fist…my head! We are officially those people that buy the largest possible avocado know to man and thoroughly enjoy it!

Now what is the best thing to make with your lovely new avocado? Guacamole obviously! I’ve created a dip with my other obsession – roasted garlic. I promise the two play nicely together! This dip is extremely easy to make and extremely easy to finish in one sitting – I suggest doubling or tripling the recipe if you have a few people over!
