Friday Favorites – Episode 131

Over the past few months, it’s been a lot of fun having some friends step in to share their Friday Favorites. I’ve enjoyed discovering new sites and learning a bit more about some of my blogging friends… And, I’m grateful to everyone who took the time to write a Friday Favorites guest post!

This week, I thought I’d get back to writing about my favorites again… I’ve come across quite a few great recipes, and I just had to share them with all of you. Of course, if you are still interested in writing a Friday Favorites guest post, let me know… I could be convinced to take another week or two off!

• It’s no secret that I love to bake bread… You already know that! Strangely enough, I’ve never actually tried making homemade pita bread. I plan to change that very soon.  After seeing this gorgeous Homemade Pita Bread from Dine & Dish, I cannot stop thinking about all of the yummy fillings I want to stuff it with!
• I’m really excited that our CSA is starting in a few weeks. And, I know that we are likely to get some fresh baby arugula in our first few CSA boxes.  As soon as we do, I am going to be putting it to good use in this Arugula and Walnut Pesto from Add a Pinch!
• Lately, I’ve been using my slow cooker quite a bit. It’s nice to throw dinner together early in the day and not have to worry about it later in the day.  Next week, I’m going to be making these Crock Pot Sloppy Joes from Bon Appetit Hon.  As soon as I saw the recipe (and the photo!), I knew that I have to make them right away.
• I don’t make appetizers nearly enough… But, the next time we have pizza for dinner, I am whipping up a batch of these Prosciutto-Stuffed Mushrooms with Mozzarella and Balsamic Glaze from Gluten Free Girl and the Chef. I cannot stop thinking about them!
