Easy Mexican-Style Lunch

Made this delicious meal for lunch today! It was incredibly flavorful and had so many different textures. I didn't follow any recipe, I just mixed a bunch of things I like together and it surprisingly came out really good! First, I marinated the chicken in 1/4 cup of olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, ground cumin, cayenne red pepper powder, dried oregano, salt and pepper for about 20 min. Chopped up a red pepper, an avocado, made some sweet corn, added pre-diced onions (Wegmans spoils me) and sprinkled some more spices along with lime juice and mixed it all in a bowl. Shredded salsa jack cheese and wrapped all the goodness up in a whole wheat tortilla then drizzled some chipotle ranch dressing on! It was the perfect easy/lazy meal for a rainy afternoon.

My new favorite shirt! I have been looking for the perfect star print shirt and came across this one and fell in love! The back slit isn't too exposing and the long hem-line helps so it doesn't feel inappropriate.

Waiting to see Avengers! It was amazing!

New summer clothes!... Can you tell what my favorite color is?

3. Mani/Pedi certificate - she deserves to be pampered! 

4. Floral Scarf - add some style to  her spring wardrobe

The best present you could give your mom is just some quality time! Since my mom is obsessed with flowers, my family is taking a trip to Longwood Gardens for the day. I'm so excited because it is so beautiful there but I will definitely need to stock up on my Claritin! What are your mother's day plans?
