Currently Crushing On: Trends, Favorites, and What’s Worth Trying

currently crushing on

Happy Saturday — so glad you stopped by.

This week on the blog I shared a new favorite: an amazing green bean salad that’s bright, crunchy, and full of flavor. I also tried grilled corn enchiladas that turned out incredible, and a lavender latte ice cream that’s equally delightful. Plus, I put together a fresh summer Fridays roundup filled with seasonal recipes and ideas.

I’m running a little behind, but my July favorites will be published in the next few days. Stay tuned!

Have a wonderful weekend! xoxo

What I’m loving this week:

The smashed cucumber yogurt salad looks irresistible — cool, tangy, and perfect for hot days.

Lambrusco sangria is all I want to sip right now: light, effervescent, and fruit-forward.

I’m dreaming of classic French silk pie — rich chocolate filling and a melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Tracy’s carry-on essentials are inspiring; practical packing tips that make travel easier.

Blueberry oat crumble bars are high on my baking list — buttery, fruity, and great for sharing.

That eggplant, summer squash, and goat cheese tart is a stunning savory option for warm-weather dinners.

A kale and quinoa bowl with peaches sounds like a wholesome, satisfying summer meal.

Strawberry lemonade pie is calling my name — tart and sweet in all the right ways.

Vegan chocolate tahini cherry chunk ice cream is a crave-worthy dairy-free dessert with complex flavors.

That Mediterranean pasta salad is packed with vibrant ingredients and Mediterranean flavors — ideal for potlucks.

Halloumi tacos with mango salsa are a joyful twist on taco night: salty, chewy cheese paired with bright, tropical salsa.

Cheesy corn grits topped with fiery shrimp make for a comforting, bold-flavored dinner.

A Caprese salad bar is such a fun, customizable idea — fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and creative toppings to please any crowd.
