My Favourite Pins This Week

Fresh summer spaghetti can seem like an oxymoron, but hear me out- this is not about sauce, but all about taking fresh veggies and fresh mozzarella and transforming them into a gorgeous rustic sauce with the help of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. It’s like eating alfresco even if you are inside. Pinterest link is here, and the full recipe is right here.

For a completely different take on brownies, you need to try these cookies and cream brownies- especially if you LOVE Oreos. I personally always forget how much I love Oreos until i have something with oreos in it, and then I immediately want to eat all the Oreos in the world. So the moral of this story is- don’t be alone with these brownies. Bring them to a summer gathering. Pinterest link is here, and the original recipe can be found here.
