Basil & Lemon Creamy Pasta with Dorot Gardens, Your Personal Sous Chef

Cooking can take so much time. I feel like I can be in the kitchen for hours when I only intended to make dinner in 30 minutes, but with all the chopping and prep. But now, that has all changed. In fact my world has been turned upside down in the kitchen in the best way.  Dorot Gardens is my new best friend in the kitchen.

Herbs already chopped up in individual pockets and ready to cook with. Oh.My.Gosh! This will change everything! I love that I can make so many recipes without having to chop up the herbs.

With Dorot Gardens I can keep my chosen herbs in the freezer and literally pop out the pre-portioned herbs for my recipe in just seconds.

Mardi Gras never fails to bring out the fun in the city.

I am in the thick of the summer here in Phoenix. We technically have at least three more months of mega hot days. So I am constantly looking for lunch ideas that I can make quick, easy, perfect for a hot day. I hate going out in the day just to get something to eat when it is so hot out.

So, I have been making some salads and sandwiches at home. I have been craving some burritos lately, but then I thought I should just make a burrito bowl. I can have my salad and burrito in one bowl.
