What I Bookmarked This Week

I canโ€™t wait to try a batch of this yummy chicken salad โ€“ love using Greek yogurt in the dressing!

Also loving these BBQ chicken rice bowls, a great summer meal.

Another BBQ recipeโ€ฆ I donโ€™t make a lot of seafood at home, but I feel like everyone might like these BBQ salmon bowls with mango avocado salsa.

Might try these bang bang chicken skewers in the oven and see how they turn out!

Sounds like an amazing side dish >> sesame butter snap peas

Have a delicious weekend!
