and other fabulous nibbles that go hand in hand with the Super Bowl. Well, not to worry. I’ve got you covered.

I recently made this awesome Spicy Roasted Broccolini Quinoa Salad for Design Sponge. First off, let me just jump up and down for a hot second. Omg, so excited that I was Design Sponge. Seriously one of my favorite sites ever. I could spend hours looking at all the fabulous tips and tricks and before and after photos. Love.

So… this Spicy Roasted Broccolini Quinoa Salad will rock your world. It’s nutty because of the quinoa and tangy with the addition of goat cheese and then you’ve got the all time best vegetable in the whole world on top.  Basically it’s the perfect lunch. And you should make it for a big group of friends and pair it with a little sparking wine. Or regular wine. Whatever floats your boat. So hop on over to Design Sponge for the recipe

And because it’s Monday. And there are some very exciting things going on this week, and because my mama officially opened her Etsy store last week, we are giving away a gorgeous handmade ceramic from her latest collection just in time for Valentine’s Day 🙂
