My stovetop #grillpan is one of the most used tools in my #LTKkitchen. It’s the next best thing to my outdoor grill.

The main pro of the grill pan is its sheer convenience. No need to fire up your grill, wait for it to reach a high temperature and then scrub it down afterwards.

By simply turning the knob on your stove and getting your pan to a good hot temperature, you’ll get a nice crispy sear and those coveted grill marks on your food.

Here I’m prepping and grilling one of my favorite salad bowl proteins to show you how it works. Shop my links to get your hands on this grill pan and more 😉

I’m often asked where I get my V-neck tanks. If you follow #ThatSaladLady, you’ve likely seen me wearing them in dozens of different colors. I’m not ashamed to say I own close to 30 of these tanks. They are my absolute favorites – and there are a few reasons why:

1. These tanks have an easy, relaxed fit and draping design that complements all shapes and sizes. Plus, the V-neckline isn’t cut too low, and the arm holes aren’t cut too large.

2. Made of light and airy Whisper Cotton, they are super comfy, lived-in-it soft and perfect for lounging around, working at home or away and even just running errands.

3. They’re very versatile and can be layered under a wrap, kimono or sweater during transitional seasons. They can also be dressed down or up with a nice blazer and slacks.

Among #Madewell’s best sellers, you can find these tanks in all types of colors throughout the year. At a retail price of just $19 they’re truly a steal. They regularly go on sale too! Check out the latest colors and shop my relaxed comfort look using the links below 🩷

This is one of my absolute favorite loungewear dresses for summer 😍

I don’t know about you, but I grew up during a time when people showed up at your house unannounced. There were no cell phones, and calling a landline often led to a busy signal. My family was poor so sometimes our landline wasn’t even on. So, if people needed something, wanted to tell you something or just wanted to check in and say hello, they just came over. Because of that, when we were home, we usually dressed as if we were having company.

This is something I still do to this day. That’s why I love cool lounging dresses like the one I’m wearing here. It’s a simple throw-on dress that’s inexpensive, cozy and comfortable. It’s also pretty lightweight and very breathable, which is especially great for our hot and humid summer weather here in the Peach State. Pop up at my home and you’ll likely find me wearing a Madewell tank with Athleta yoga pants or a dress like this in one of the many colors I own 😊

When it comes to #saladmaking and #mealprep, owning a good set of #knives is an absolute game changer! After years of purchasing a good knife here and a good knife there, I finally decided to invest in a high-quality set. I chose J.A. HENCKELS International Classic 20-Pc. Self-Sharpening Cutlery Set, which is among the best of the best!

The set itself includes: 3- and 4-inch paring, 5-inch serrated utility, 5.5-inch prep, 6-inch utility, 5.5-inch boning, 7-inch santoku, 8-inch bread knife, 8-inch carving, 8-inch chef's knife, 8 x 4.5-inch steak knives, kitchen shears, and self-sharpening block.

The knives are not only incredibly sharp but also very durable. Whether used for slicing, dicing or chopping, they’ll deliver outstanding results. Then there’s the self-sharpening knife block, which has built-in ceramic honing wheels that automatically sharpen whenever the knives are stored or removed. This is a huge upgrade from the standalone knife sharpener.

If you’re looking to take your salad making and meal prep to the next level, this set from my #LTKkitchen is indeed a must-have 🥗

As a hardworking (and unapologetic) introvert, I take quarterly solo getaways at #GetawayHouse to rest, recharge and reset. It’s all about #selfcare! In case you aren’t familiar with #Getaway, it’s basically an escape to a tiny cabin nestled in nature. Since the cabins are just a mere 100-square-feet, you have to take a minimalist approach to packing.

That’s where the outfit I’m sporting here comes in.

For my 3-5 day stays, I typically pack 4-6 #Madewell tanks and 2-3 pairs of #Athleta leggings – no matter what time of year it is. For cooler weather, I pack at least one Athleta wrap too. This combination of gear is timelessly stylish, breathable and buttery soft with unmatchable lived-in-it comfort. If you follow #ThatSaladLady, you already know I love this look.

Every salad lover needs a good #triflebowl – and I absolutely love this one right here! I actually bought it as a little birthday gift for myself.

For quite some time, I had been looking for the perfect trifle bowl. I wanted one that was sturdy, but not too fancy. One that I could regularly build #layeredsalads with, but also one that could be repurposed for seasonal centerpieces and other decor.

This was it for me!

The bowl itself is the perfect size for feeding a small family or even a larger gathering of people. The attached pedestal is solid and secure, and the overall look is elegant yet minimalistic, which makes it great for everyday bowl building and special occasions.

I use this trifle bowl religiously and would definitely recommend it 🥗

You haven’t had good #guacamole until it’s made in a #molcajete. Using this one, my guacamole now tastes just as good as the guac served at Mexican restaurants.

Never again will I make it in a bowl.

Pressing and grinding the more aromatic layers together releases all their essential oils and completely extracts their juices and rich flavors, which ultimately adds more depth of flavor to the finished guac.

You can literally smell the difference.

If you love guacamole as much as I do, I highly recommend getting yourself a molcajete. You’re not limited to making guac either! You can use it to grind and mix ingredients for your favorite salsas, sauces and other dishes 🥑

Salad making and meal prepping in general starts with a good set of bowls. This set of Pyrex glass bowls right here is my favorite by far. Let me share with you five reasons why:

1️⃣ They’re conveniently sized and stackable, which saves shelf space

2️⃣ They’re microwavable, super easy to clean and even dishwasher safe

3️⃣ They don’t stain or absorb food flavors and odors (no more lingering onion smells)

4️⃣ They come with BPA-free tight-fitting lids to keep all your layers nice and fresh

5️⃣ They’re built with durable high-quality tempered glass, so they don’t break easily

After years of use, I haven’t had a single issue with any of the bowls in this set – and I use them a whole lot. Whether I’m building salad bowls, whisking dressings or storing leftovers, these are indeed my go-to bowls 🥗
