Faux-Tiramisu (or Tiramisu Overnight Oats)

Let’s be real for a minute — dessert for breakfast can be pretty awesome.
While traditional Italian tiramisu might be a little hard to justify first thing in the morning, this overnight oat version is the perfect compromise.
It’s creamy, coffee-infused, and just decadent enough to feel like a treat while still being packed with nutrients. Even better, it’s super easy to make.
A little mixing, a little layering, and an overnight rest in the fridge are all it takes to wake up to something that feels indulgent but is actually good for you.

(Easy) Thai Chicken Coconut Curry

Thai red curry paste is something I always buy and recommend you do too.
It’s a staple in Thai cuisine and is used in a wide range of dishes, from curries to soups and stews. It’s made by grinding together a variety of fresh herbs and spices, such as lemongrass, galangal, garlic, shallots, and chili peppers. The ingredients are blended together to create a smooth and fragrant paste that is spicy but more importantly full of flavor.
I generally use it in these Crock-pot Thai Red Curry Lentils, which are cous Steph’s favorite dish ever.

Spicy Tuna Pesto Pasta

I’m a big fan of “pantry-friendly” recipes.
Though I have to admit that it’s kind of a vague term, since it doesn’t account for much of the diversity that influences what fills our cupboards.
But I’m pretty sure that in almost every household you can find a can of tuna, an onion, some tomato paste, olives, parsley, and oil.
That’s really all it takes to make this incredible Spicy Tuna Pesto Pasta.

A light yet filling meal that can be the perfect dish for a hot summer dinner or to bring to your next potluck or barbecue.
