I’m baccccccccck!

Feels good to have my boots on the ground in the good ol’ US of A. So, what’s the latest? Did y’all miss me? I missed you. Can we hug?

Japan was a complete whirlwind. I have so much to share with you about our travels. Between snow skiing, walking every square inch Tokyo, and eating every version of ramen under the sun, I’m not sure where to even start! But look for upcoming travel posts soon.

And speaking of ramen, have I got a super fun two-chopstick up recipe to share with you today. This ramen recipe is a mixture of two worlds , east and west. Don’t worry there’s no chance of being lost in translation because my friends over at Muir Glen have us covered.

Most primavera recipes call for fresh tomatoes, but I say nay. I am on canned tomato kick. Remember these bourbon tomato soup shooters? All can baby! But the key to making this primavera an 11/10 is using Muir Glen Italian herb tomatoes. I could eat these straight out of the can. If I tried doing it with chopsticks would you be impressed?

Anyway, this ramen dish comes together lickity-split, especially with all the veggies and seven-minute in heaven egg. Topped with a little more Muir Glen Italian herb tomatoes, you’ll have one jet-set approved bowl of ramen.
