So… just hear me out. Pickle flavored stuff has kind of become the trendy thing these days and let me just say, I don’t mind it at all. I love me a good pickle. Dill pickle that is. None of that sweet bread and butter nonsense. This Dill Pickle Pasta Salad is pretty amazing. It’s light, tangy, and super easy to make too.
I know it might sound a little weird at first, but I promise it’s one of the best pasta salads I’ve ever had. And I’m southern so I’ve had a lot of different kinds of pasta salad. I lightened this pasta salad up and made it a bit better-for-you but first subbing in a whole wheat pasta. I also kicked the sour cream out and used a plain fat-free greek yogurt instead. And obviously a light mayonnaise was the way to go…

The weather here in Texas right now is all over the place. We’ve gone from near freezing, to sunny and 90 degrees, and on further to torrential downpours of rain all in the matter of a couple of days. I almost feel like I should be doing the reverse of a rain dance at this point. But, besides bringing in a plethora of allergens, the weather has left us with an immense amount of Spring flowers this season.
So, I’m pushing on with the Spring inspired recipes. And this Skinny Whipped Feta Dip is topping the charts. To go along with the Spring season, I picked up some Spring inspired essentials. Namely, fresh produce including zucchini, tomatoes, lemon, and dill!…

Over the lifetime of The Skinny Fork, I've been blessed to see such growth between myself and the blog. As strange as it may seem, we both seem to push the other to our limits in mostly positive and amazing ways. I'll be honest in saying that I'm a bit of an introvert. I could hold up in my house for days on end and never give it a second thought. I have a lot of social anxiety that I've been steadily working through as I become older and more confident in myself.
One of the most interesting things I find is that being a blogger has often pushed me into social situations; meeting and working with new people. Whether it be at the farmer's market, social media, or answering your questions. A little over a year ago now I was contacted by Cassie over at OnTheHealthyside.net - she was starting out on her own journey and was seeking some friendly advice. We've followed one another on social media ever since...

We love pickles in this house.
My little girl alone goes through about a jar every week or two this summer. She's especially fond of pickled carrots as I've found out recently. And have you seen the price for pickles? Holy moly! If you're wanting a good pickle, you're going to be paying $3-4 bucks a jar. Eep!
The past few weeks I've been playing around with a grocery service that delivers organic and local produce straight from nearby farms to your home. I've been getting the 'local box' which comes with a variety of that weeks 'special' produce, fruits and herbs. It's been fun and very interesting. I get to work with a lot of new-to-me ingredients that you normally wouldn't find at the grocery store either; such as sweet potato greens, hon tsai tai, and cucamelons.
Well, I was supposed to get cucamelons, but unfortunately they were swapped for something else after I had planned on pickling them. Bummer. Oh well! I did still get some fresh organic dill in my delivery so I decided I'd just pickle some cucumbers and carrots instead!...
