April 22, 2021 By Stephanie Leave a Comment

This 21 Day Fix Mint Julep is a light, refreshing bourbon cocktail perfect not just for Derby Day, but all summer long!

Hey guys! It’s almost Derby Day! Did you guys know that my crazy fam lived in the Louisville area for a couple of years? We loved Louisville and met some of the very best people there!

There’s a lot to love about Louisville, but one thing that stands out pretty much as soon as you get there is that the “fastest two minutes in sports” is a BFD and Kentuckians DO. IT. UP. The parties, the outfits, the hats, the mint juleps. It’s all southern charm and luxury and traditions almost 150 years in the making.

Anyway… let’s talk waffles! I freaking love waffles and would take them over pancakes any day of the week. There’s something about their crispy, chewy fantasticness that just makes my heart so happy.

This copycat olive garden salad dressing is the closest to the original that I’ve ever had! It’s gluten-free, plus 21 Day Fix and Weight Watchers friendly!

Hey guys! I hope all of you who celebrate it had a great Easter! Even though as I’m writing this it’s still mostly been in the 40’s here, Easter has me feeling all the spring vibes – hence, the salad cravings have been hitting me hardcore as of late.

That, along with still only doing outdoor dining has me really missing some Olive Garden Salad! And, man I can’t wait for you guys to try this one – it’s sooooo close to the original that my husband couldn’t tell the difference, and just a damn good Italian dressing!

Oh, and I also have a fun Olive Garden breadstick hack for you, because what is an Olive Garden salad if you can’t pile some on top of a warm, garlicky breadstick??

Ok, let’s do some Q&A and then I’ll show you how to make it!
