Welcome to Pinning it Down Tuesday! Do you find yourself pinning projects to Pinterest, but rarely getting around to doing them? Do you need a bit of encouragement to make some of those projects come to life? Join Pam and me every Tuesday for the Pinning it Down link-up, where we're making a Pinterest project happen in our homes every week.
I'm not supposed to be Pinning this week- I'm supposed to be in labor! (Okay, not really- I'm only 38 weeks. But I want my baby! And I'm just not very patient when it comes to snuggly perfect little newborn babies).
I pinned this recipe for Avocado Chicken Salad two weeks ago and I've already made it three times. It's good. Very good. (Make sure you add lots of lime juice, and don't skimp on the green onions or avocados, either.) It makes a great lunch, and I'm betting it'll be on our summer dinner menu as well. It's naturally gluten- and dairy-free, which is always a bonus. Yum!
Are you ready to play along? Here's how our link-up works:
1. Choose a project from one of your Pinterest pinboards and make it happen. Blog a little about it. Remember, it doesn't have to be elaborate- we just want to see what you've been up to!
2. Make sure you link back here somewhere in your post so others can find us and play along. Feel free to grab our Pinning it Down graphic if you'd like to add it to your post. Also, don't forget proper pinning etiquette and try to include a link back the original idea whenever possible. We want to be sure that cool idea credit is given to the proper person.
3. Link up below. Make sure you're sending us to your actual post, and not to your general blog address. You can add your link all the way through Friday, so if you haven't gotten a chance to work on any of your pins yet this week, you're not too late.
That looks delicious! I am definably going give it a try! Praying that your little arrives soon.
ReplyDeleteMust be good to have made it that many times. My husband loves avocado-anything so maybe I should try this!
ReplyDeleteyum, that does look good! I'm going to have to grab that pin from you! Praying for you and that little one!
ReplyDeleteSo it's good, eh? Avocado and chicken? I certainly need lots of good summer recipes. Will have to check it out. The new blog header is lovely, btw. Nice job.
ReplyDeleteThanks. :) I think my nesting has kicked into overdrive, though. One can only rearrange her blog so many times before she needs to step. away. from. the. keyboard.
DeleteSo I disassembled my vacuum cleaner last night and cleaned every single part of it instead.
:)
Awww, no baby today? Huh? That chicken salad looks very good ~ I'll have to pin it!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! There are two of us around here, out of 10, that eat avocados. I'm always trying to convince the others...this might just do it and worth a try, thanks! Pinned it!
ReplyDeleteTaking note of that chicken salad. Avocados...yum.
ReplyDeleteYum, that looks really good. I'll be thinking of you and praying over the next few days. I know that sweet baby will be here soon!
ReplyDeleteThat salad definitely looks yummy...hmm, I have some avocados and chicken in the fridge, perhaps you just solved my what's for dinner tonight question. Best wishes with the baby, I know it is hard to wait...I am at 37 weeks right now myself. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat Chicken Salad sounds amazing! I will be making it soon. I've been making a tuna salad and some homemade mayo this week that i almost posted for Pinning it Down, but decided to share pictures of the (totally unhealthy!) Grenade Cake Pops we just made instead.
ReplyDeleteThis recipe sounds and looks delicious, Sarah.
ReplyDeletePraying for you during your wait...
Mmmm. Looks yummy. I need all the gluten free tips I can get. It's no problem at home, but out and about is killing me.
ReplyDeleteOut and about is trickier- no doubt about it. Have you seen the gluten free registry (http://glutenfreeregistry.com/)? You may find some good spots near you there. And then I try to keep handy snacks in the car (trail mix, glutino breakfast bars, envirokiz rice bars, etc).
DeleteAnd if you live anywhere near a Chick-Fil-A, they just announced gf chicken nuggets. We don't have one here, but I have it on good authority that they are good. Wendy's is also a decent fast-food option.
I LOVE this stuff! I had it for lunch today and yesterday. It's also much better with the green onion :) I made sure I got some for this time around. I think I'll make more tonight for the rest of the week's lunches - YUMMY!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great when you find a recipe that's easy enough and delicious enough that you can make it frequently? Yum!
