Thai Peanut Chicken Pasta Salad

Thai Peanut Chicken Pasta Salad is loaded with grilled chicken, veggies, crunchy peanuts, cilantro and a flavorful Thai peanut sauce! It's summer and we are loving all of the easy meals that can be eaten outside, including this delicious Thai Peanut Chicken Pasta Salad. It is loaded with soba noodles, chicken, tons of veggies, crunchy peanuts and dressed with an incredibly flavorful peanut sauce. Serve this up at your next picnic! We recently took a trip to Cedar Point amusement park with my family and we prefer to bring our own meals (fried food does not sit well when riding roller coasters!). For lunch, I brought this Thai Peanut Chicken Pasta Salad and wow, was it delicious! The cilantro plus the peanut sauce really makes it so flavorful.

Cherry Pie Oatmeal Bars

Cherry Pie Oatmeal Bars are loaded with homemade cherry pie filling nestled between chewy oat layers. They are nutritious, gluten-free and make the perfect snack or dessert! This post is sponsored by Terry Naturally ® Vitamins. All opinions are my own. I love these Cherry Pie Oatmeal Bars because they taste indulgent but are actually pretty nutritious and very easy to make! It's crazy how easy it is to make your own cherry pie filling. So much less sugar and it tastes better too. These bars are loaded with tons of juicy tart cherries for the most delicious dessert or snack. I am a huge fan of fruit bars- make sure you try my Blueberry Pie Oatmeal Bars too. These bars are chewy and delicious for either breakfast, snack or dessert. If you have your cherry pie oatmeal bars refrigerated, you can pick them up with your hands. Otherwise, they can be enjoyed with a fork on a plate. These bars are gooey, soft, and so flavorful.
