As a newlywed I am always looking for new recipes to make for dinner. But not just any recipe. I strive to find a balance between tasty, healthy and easy. Oh yeah, and affordable. One of my recent discoveries is a great Giada recipe. I was able to buy all of the ingredients at Trader Joe’s, with the exception of the puff pastry, which I got at the grocery store. Not only is this recipe healthy, when I made it for my husband the other day we discovered an explosion of flavors in fresh taste of the pesto, the flakiness of the pastry, the sweetness of the salmon and crunchiness of the almonds. The best part? It’s quick and easy, it only took about 30 minutes to prepare.

Healthy and Tasty

Here is the recipe, enjoy! (more…)

Thought I would share a funny skit from SNL on dog training (Warning: do not try this at home!) Hayley declined to participate in today’s post, she was offended.
