Weekly Dinners: Fresh & Flavorful Eats!

I’m back home from Mexico and feeling like our dinners need a little refresh!

Don’t get me wrong, last week we continued the Mexican food theme by making Empanadas with a Cilantro Jalapeño Lime sauce (pictured below) which were amazing, but I’m feeling like making something a little lighter this week.

Before we dive in, I just want to give a huge THANK YOU to everyone who’s subscribed, shared our recipes, and shared their thoughts so far.

Thanks to you, Weekly Dinners has grown to 100+ subscribers in just over a month!

I started this because my partner and I were tired of the same old meals every week and wanted more exciting dinner ideas.

So we hope these recipes inspire you to try something new at your table, too!
