Burger bowls may seem all wrong at first glance because many of us grew up eating a classic burger not long after we could chew. So to take that special something that's American tradition that we've eaten for decades and modifying it to something that looks like a salad can just seem so strange. But to that I'd say, wait to give it your final opinion until you've tried them yourself and tasted of their exceptional flavor!

Burger bowls are simply a deconstructed burger made with the best things you get in a diner style burger and then some. The typical bun is traded for golden brown oven fries and it's polished off with a generous drizzle of savory burger sauce. A sauce that's similar to the spread at In-n-Out or Smash Burger sauce - being lightly sweet, slightly tangy, and extra creamy.

It's an exciting new way to switch up the typical piled high burger on a bun, into a piled high bowl spread out into an appetizing blend of colors and a satisfying variety of textures. It's a must try recipe for all burger lovers!

This is truly such a super simple salad that packs in so much flavor! It's a breeze to throw together and can easily be turned into a main entree by adding some chopped rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken to make it more hearty.

You'll love the lemon, poppy seed, and blueberry combo here. It may not be the first thing you'd think to add to salad, maybe perhaps more along the lines of a baked treat, but it works exceptionally well for a salad too.

Its sweet, tart, fruity, nutty, cheesy flavor fusion is completely crave-able, and it's bursting with fresh, nutritious goodness in every bite.

It's a different salad for a change, that's set to satisfy every tastebud and I'd say will likely even brighten your day!

Who doesn't love a abundantly cheesy tortellini dish drenched in a rich, creamy tomato sauce or smothered with fresh pesto? Those are family favorites but during these really hot months it's so nice to have something like this that's served at room temperature not steaming hot.

This tortellini pasta salad doubles as a weeknight dinner or a summer lunch for a picnic at the park or a barbecue cook out.

Its blend of flavors pair so harmoniously together with it's cheesy, bacon, tomato combo and the arugula, bell pepper and lemon for added flavor enhancement. Plus the chewy, crisp, and soft textures of each layered bite compliment each other beautifully.

Then to highlight it all let's not forget the final finish of parmesan. And please not the shelf stable kind, if you really want to elevate the dish use high quality fresh ingredients.

This tuna pasta salad can be served as a cool summer lunch, a cook out side dish, or even passes a dinner entree since it also includes a filling protein of nutritious tuna.

It's brimming with layers of flavor thanks to the lemony dressing, its duo of herbs, the rich tuna in oil, and the various blend of veggies which are a blend of fresh, roasted and marinated.

This is also a great dish to make ahead of time. So if you have a busy day the following day you can prep the day before and have it in the fridge ready to go for serving guests or an on the go meal prep.

Canned tuna got a major upgrade thanks to this recipe!

Lately I've been loving wraps more than ever! They are such a welcome change to the same old sandwiches or salads we've had far too often.

Here you take a basic caesar salad, add in upgrades of avocados, chicken and tomatoes, along with a cool caesar dressing (and nix the croutons because the carbs on carbs seems overkill). Then wrap it all up in a jumbo tortilla and you've got a colorful, loaded wrap everyone will be envious of at your lunch hour (plus they are perfect for dinner too).

Yes, you could go the cheater route and use a store-bought caesar dressing to save time, but really this homemade caesar dressing makes the recipe what it is. Plus is easy to prep and most definitely worth the extra bit of effort and ingredients (many of which are kitchen staples).

And if you are wanting to live on the edge and splurge you could even take these chicken caesar wraps one step further and add cooked crumbled bacon. No one will complain!

Need a quick dinner or wondering what to make with that package of shelf stable gnocchi that needs to be used up that's sitting in the pantry? This mouthwatering simple sheet pan gnocchi dinner has got you covered.

Busy people, meat lovers, cozy meal cravers, kids and adults alike - everyone loves this simple dish for so many reasons!

It's prepped in a flash, you don't need to pre-boil the gnocchi, and it doesn't need any close tending to. Truly the oven really does most of the work.

If you're looking to serve it with an extra side it would pair well with a side salad and a balsamic vinaigrette, or for even more heartiness you can't go wrong with garlic butter slathered sourdough bread (I've been loving this recipe).

This skillet seared chicken with creamy dijon sauce is richly flavorful, with a touch of gourmet. It's indeed an upgrade on otherwise bland and boring chicken breast. And the best part is it's made with a handful of staple ingredients you likely already have on hand.

Its simple dijon mustard infused sauce is something that you can use on other proteins like ham, pork or salmon, side vegetables such as asparagus, broccoli and potatoes, and breakfast dishes like eggs benedict and stratas. Basically you'll want to add to just about everything else in your fridge so you may as well double it up so you have extra.

Impress everyone with this creamy mustard sauce chicken, it may likely even become one of your favorite chicken dinners!

A Cozy Cheesy Garlic Bread Recipe

It doesn't get much better then a warm slice of cheesy garlic bread straight from the oven!

This recipe is so easy to make and doubles as a crowd pleasing appetizer or cozy side dish. Perfect for dipping in marinara sauce or serving alongside all your favorite pastas and soups.

It uses a combo of garlic and olive oil for both flavor and so the bread doesn't get bogged down being heavy and overly greasy with a what is traditionally a full stick of butter.

It's also a versatile recipe where you can use fresh or dried garlic, various breads and different types of cheese.

My personal favorite is just as listed, with fresh garlic and the combo of two cheeses. Simple Italian flavor in every bite!

Don't let this soups simplicity fool you, it will have you saying, "who knew bean soup could be so good?" It's brimming with flavor yet it's a breeze to make, and it's a soup you can feel good about eating.

It's a great meatless option for lunch or a simple dinner and it pairs well with some artisan whole grain bread for dipping. Or if you really want to pack greens into the meal serve it with a side salad.

Something I think you'll really love about this soup is it's light creaminess without the use of any cream. That is thanks to blitzing a portion of the beans and stirring that puree right into the soup.

It's bright welcome flavors come from a little lemon, a fair sprinkle of parmesan and a rounded spoonful of garlic. Always a delicious trio.

How to Make the Soup Vegetarian and Vegan

To make the recipe vegetarian simply use vegetable broth. To make it vegan use vegetable broth and omit the parmesan rind and the parmesan, in it's place you can use two tablespoons of nutritional yeast.

What is Spatchcock Chicken?

Rustic spatchcock chicken is a whole chicken that has had the backbone removed and it's butterflied, then it is turned to the opposite side and breastbone is cracked to flatten the chicken. Then benefit of spatchcock chicken is that since it's splayed flat it cooks quicker and more evenly than a chicken left whole in its more natural rounded form.

Another great thing about this method is that no special ingredients are needed and no roasting pan is required. Just a simple ingredients and a standard baking sheet are used. You could even swap out the fresh herbs for dried if that's what you have on hand (just use 1/3 the amounts).

When roasting a whole chicken I've found I prefer to include vegetables alongside it for two reasons. An obvious reason is that you get a side dish cooked at the same time, and the other benefit is there's far less smoking in the oven. Win win.

This recipe yields tender juicy chicken with highlighting complementary flavors of lemon and herbs. And paired alongside are those golden brown, garlicky roasted vegetables to round it out. It's such a cozy meal in one, and if you want an extra upgrade pair it with simple 1-Hour Dinner Rolls.
