<p class="has-text-align-center"><span style="font-weight: 400;">This Grilled Chicken Pesto Pasta is delicious &amp; the perfect way to use any chicken you’re making on the grill. You can even use leftover chicken &amp; make this exact same dish but as a pasta salad. I love to repurpose leftovers to eliminate food waste- plus, it helps me be more creative in the kitchen. Pasta salad is the best hot weather meal idea because it&#8217;s no heat and easy for a poolside or picnic lunch. This one is great for meal prep, too! It&#8217;s very customizable: you can add in any veggies you want and use gluten free pasta. Let me know what you think!</span></p>

<p class="has-text-align-center"><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of my favorite recipes and it only takes 15 minutes to make! I absolutely love this air fryer with honey sriracha salmon. It is perfect paired with cauliflower rice or regular rice. It has an avocado pineapple salsa on top that is versatile so save that recipe to use on a bunch of other recipes this summer! You will want to make this salmon once a week. Not only is it so tasty, you don’t have to turn on your oven.</span></p>

<p class="has-text-align-center"><span style="font-weight: 400;">This Greek inspired spicy chickpea salad is the easiest healthy meal! Ready in less than 10 minutes plus it requires no cooking and no reheating. Lots of veggies and protein in this meal! I love to make this for lunch because it’s so low maintenance.</span></p>
