A pretty stormy morning turned into a beautiful af A pretty stormy morning turned into a beautiful afternoon, so we've *officially* got our baby tomato and pepper plants in the garden! I'm so excited to watch them grow and use them in some really awesome summer recipes this year.

These little French Dip Sliders are one of my favorite summer picnic recipes, and they're a perfect small batch recipe to make in a 2 quart slow cooker! I slow cook a pound of pork shoulder with a TON of flavorful ingredients, then shred it apart and pile them onto little slider buns with Swiss cheese and French fried onions.

The pork cooks for about eight hours, so it's perfect to throw in the slow cooker on a Saturday night and enjoy on a Sunday afternoon! Grab the full recipe here >> https://aflavorjournal.com/small-batch-shredded-pork-french-dip-sliders or through the link in my bio @aflavorjournal

Enjoy your Sunday! I'll be sure to share some stories of our garden later!

xx Sara

My FAVORITE espresso martini recipe is finally pos My FAVORITE espresso martini recipe is finally posted on the blog!  I shared the reel yesterday, but here's a few photos, too!

I made this recipe for a Valentine's Day cooking class that @kasimjhardaway and I hosted back in February, and I've been itching to photograph it and share it with you ever since!

The key factors here are good espresso, good coffee liqueur, and a brown sugar syrup for extra depth and richness. I love grabbing some espresso from my favorite local coffee shop (@messengercoffee or @oddly are amazing if you're in KC), and keeping it refrigerated until I make these.

For coffee liqueur, @kahlua is a popular one, but I REALLY love @forthave_spirits "Brown" for this recipe. I know you can find it at @kccellarrat in KC!

As far as the brown sugar syrup goes, I PROMISE you that it's easy. Just combine equal parts brown sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir until the brown sugar dissolves. That's it. Let it cool a bit, because you'll be mixing it with an egg white for this martini (for that frothy top layer), and if the syrup is too hot, it won't end well.

I’ve been on a serious salad kick lately, and I I’ve been on a serious salad kick lately, and I think this one may be my absolute new favorite. I teamed up with @mobeefcouncil to create this grilled Steak Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette (for 2!), and it. is. DELICIOUS.

I created this salad with Top Sirloin Steak in mind. A Top Sirloin steak is so versatile; you can use it for kebabs, stir-fry, or salads, and it’s a super affordable cut of beef that delivers really big on flavor!I always recommend using a meat thermometer to determine when your steak is cooked; I am a medium-rare girl, so I cooked this filet to 145 F.

Top Sirloin is considered lean beef, there’s less fat but still tons of flavor! Lean beef is defined as a cut of beef that contains less than 10 grams of total fat (or less), 4.5 grams of saturated fat (or less), and less than 95 mg of cholesterol per serving. Even better, a serving of lean beef provides 10 essential nutrients (like protein, zinc, vitamins B6 and B12, and iron) in about 170 calories.

I’m so ready for the warm weather to officially be here, and I can’t think of a better way than to kick off my birthday month with a hearty Steak Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette. :)

Here’s how to make it!!

Ingredients for two Steak Salads:
6 oz. top sirloin
grape seed oil
Salt & pepper
1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup roasted corn (from 1 ear)
½ cup gorgonzola crumbles
Balsamic vinaigrette
 
Ingredients for Balsamic vinaigrette:
2 tsp. Mayonnaise
2 tsp. Maple syrup
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
3 tbsp. Balsamic vinegar
¼ tsp. Garlic powder
¼ tsp. Oregano
Pinch each of Salt and pepper
2 tbsp. Olive oil

(directions continued in comments!)

Thanks again to @mobeefcouncil for partnering with me on this recipe!

Heading into the week and craving some greens, so Heading into the week and craving some greens, so this Ground Turkey Taco Salad is totally on my mind!

The turkey has so much flavor, but the DRESSING. Let's talk about the dressing. I blended Greek Yogurt and my favorite salsa together, added some fresh lime juice, honey, cilantro, green onions, and a pinch of salt to bring it all together.

The recipe makes two salads, and I encourage you to use your favorite salad greens! I use arugula because it's peppery and delicious, but you do you. 🥰
