This refreshing Yellow Heirloom Tomato Pico de Gallo Carpaccio is my take on the traditional meat appetizer. The juice from the tomatoes blends perfectly with the dressing. This zesty full flavored salad is easy to prepare and it will brighten up anyone’s day with its cheerful vibrant colors.
With only one and a half weeks away from our wedding date, we have a crazy busy week ahead of us. I made a big batch of soup and a large kale salad to make meals a little easier. I can’t believe how fast time flies! With all of our visitors coming I am sure there will be some beach picnics involved with all this food.
One of my most favorite people, Tanya, is able to pull off coming to our wedding all the way from Switzerland; I couldn’t be more thrilled! I also can’t get over the fact that five of my closest friends are renting a house only one house away from ours. Also, my mom, Ang and the boys are staying with us too; I couldn’t be more excited about this!
