Creamy Gruyere Pasta with Shrimp, Tomatoes, and Mushrooms #CKMondaviHeros
Whole grain pasta mixed with a creamy, light gruyere cheese sauce, fresh jumbo shrimp, sweet cherry tomatoes, and sliced Baby Bella mushrooms make for a perfect summer meal, especially when paired with CK Mondavi white wine such as Chardonnay or one of their newest blends, Blonde Five. I don’t normally go for creamy pasta dishes. They’re often […]

Dinner at Home: Shrimp & Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Broccoli ArugulaSalad

As you can tell, my boyfriend and I tend to eat out a lot. In an attempt to save our waistlines and wallets, we’ve decided to cook dinner home more often. We’ve cooked for each other before, but never actually together. My kitchen is kind of small and he’s so freaking tall, so it was […]
