Hi hi. For today’s post I thought I’d send a shout out to an old friend and fellow blogger, Gina of GG LaRue. By old, I mean we went to the same grade school and high school. Her mom was even my high school english teacher but honestly I haven’t seen her in like 10+ years. Whatev, I think her blog is beautiful and inspiring so I thought I’d share!
Gina shares delicious, beautiful recipes that are the epitome of health. They make me want to go vegan, paleo, raw, and gluten-free, as long as I don’t have to be them all at once, wink. Here are a few I’d like to try out – stay tuned and I’ll give you a recap of how they go!
1. Zucchini Ribbon Pasta with Creamy Avocado Sauce - I used to make zucchini pasta for myself in college but I would dice it into long thin strings (a la spaghetti). Gina’s recommendation of using a veggie peeler is such a time saver. Maybe I’ll get back into my old habit. Plus, hello Avocado sauce?? Sign me up. 
2. Maple Glazed Salmon – We still have 1/2 a freezer full of Josh’s wild alaskan salmon he caught fishing this summer and we are always looking for new ways to cook it. The salsa on top of this looks great and I’m intersted to see what the dash of chili powder tastes like mixed with the maple glaze.
3. Black Bean Burgers - We are big fans of The Burger in this house. I’m not sure I could sway Josh away from his beloved organic grass-fed beef, but maybe I’ll test these guys out on a solo night and save some left overs for him to try? I think Tilly would be a fan for sure. 
For all of Gina’s recipes, click on over to her blog. I’m looking forward to a cookbook, aren’t you?
