October 2016 Weeknight Dinner Ideas Part 1

Welcome back y’all!  After an incredible month of travel to places like Japan, Seatte and NYC I am back in town for ten full days!  I am pretty excited to be back in the kitchen making quick weeknight dinners after being consistently away for over a month.  While I had many phenomenal meals while on vacation (Still cannot believe I ate Puffer Fish!)  there is nothing quite like eating dinner in your own home.  

I’ll keep this short and sweet as I am still unpacking from Japan…  As always, please let me know if you enjoyed any of the recipes featured below, and share my blog with your friends!
