After my long absence, I thought the easiest way back into your hearts (and inbox) would be through your tummies. Major changes have happened, and the "Shop This" headquarters has relocated to New York! I have always had a New York State of Mind, and now I am actually here. Thanks for your patience. Now let's get cooking, and soon shopping!
Basil Martini
This chic cocktail is for the adventurous martini drinker. Instead of vermouth, it calls for sweet and sour mix and lime juice. Cheers!
Spicy Turkey Taco Salad with Baja Dressing
Looking for a non boring salad? This is it. " Chipotle chili seasoned turkey taco meat, mixed with fresh greens, black beans, avocado, mango, and a little cheddar cheese too. Topped with tortilla chips for crunch, and finished with a creamy Baja style dressing that’s spicy and cooling."
Grilled Asparagus With Balsamic Reduction
In my book, anything reduced is more flavorful. And a balsamic reduction or glaze is always the beginning of something fabulous. This grilled asparagus has been dressed up with balsamic, parmesan, and pine nuts. Just perfect!
Homemade pesto is one of my favorite things. For me, the jar pesto on the shelf is usually way too oily. Pasta, is a beautiful base for this perfect pesto. It's unique and sounds oh so delish!
“Gala” Grasshopper Pie
Flavored with green crème de menthe and white crème de cacao, this is the ultimate after dinner treat. The filing is a no bake mixture of heavy cream, chocolate, and flavorings, The topping is a fluffy and chocolatey whipped cream. Oh just YUM!
Pesto Salmon and Italian Veggies in Foil
Salmon with pesto? Oh yes! This dish is easy enough for a weeknight, but attractive enough for company. The author states that the salmon is perfectly prepared.
Ice Cream
This is a must make, especially since it is so easy without a need for an ice cream maker. It's made with fresh mint without artificial flavors. Love it.
Love In My OvenThis is a must make, especially since it is so easy without a need for an ice cream maker. It's made with fresh mint without artificial flavors. Love it.
Here's a show stopping dish that's gorgeous with bright green. It features a velvety texture thanks to a special olive oil. Perfect for sipping and dipping a crunchy bite of bread.
Smoked Salmon, Avocado, And Arugula Salad
Can we ever have too many salad recipes? I think not. I selected this recipe because it is light but filling, and simple and impressive. It's all dressed with a vibrant champagne vinaigrette.
Crispy Prosciutto
I have some Arborio rice just waiting to become risotto. This recipe will be made. It's just perfect for Spring, don't you think?

Mushroom Goat Cheese Frittata
Oh this recipe has my name all over it. A wonderful choice for breakfast, brunch or dinner. You start this recipe on the stove and finish it in the oven.
Jasmine Tea Cake With Matcha Buttercream and Raspberry Cream
How gorgeous is this cake? Interesting enough the cake is made with oil, but there is plenty of butter in that frosting. Who doesn't love a Swiss meringue? Company worthy for sure.
This recipe creates two drinks in one. How fun and super special looking.
