If the cowboy hat fits... The romance rumors about Megan Moroney and Riley Green are heating even more after she may have thrown a little gas on the fire. It appears that the two were out on the town together in Nashville (at Riley's Duck Blind Bar) and fans think she was donning Riley Green's hat. Hmmm... Kicking off the new year, Riley Green found himself at the center of a romantic speculation with the "Am I Okay?" singer, Megan Moroney, as fans speculated the two were on vacation together. Fans initially noticed that Riley Green posted a story about the same topical location that Megan Moroney tagged in a selfie. While they did not share any images of themselves both in Saint-Jean, Saint Barthélemy, social media speculated that the two happened to be in the exact tropically remote location at similar times. @laurcondon16 dont know who to talk to abt this ? #rileygreen #meganmoroney ♬ original sound - Country Central While the creator that did the initial digging on social media talking, the chatter continued when another creator did another deep dive, identifying that it appeared Green and Moroney were together on vacation off the basis of a boat picture. Moroney posted a photo of her and two girlfriends on a boat with a quiet beach behind them. This creator then saw that Riley Green's friend, Greg Camp, posted an image of him and his wife from what looks like the same boat. The leather color of the seats seems the same, but the same beach background is more telling they were together. @laurcondon16 Replying to @NAT! ladies im sorry ? #rileygreen #meganmoroney ♬ Third Time's the Charm - Megan Moroney The social media digging has not stopped since the alleged shared vacation. As the blonde bombshell is back in Nashville, fans think she and Riley Green are out and about together. Last night, Megan Moroney posted a photo of herself wearing a brown cowboy hat with a dark leather band, and the internet is convinced it's Riley Green's hat. Green's friend, Greg Camp, again plays into this theory. He posted stories of Green doing a cold plunge with the Batman Building in the background, signifying he's in Nashville. Camp also shared an image of Green in a hat that looks very similar to the one Moroney wore in her story.  On top of that, Moroney shared a picture of the boots she was sporting for a night out, and it looks like she has the shoes propped up on a man's legs. While neither Moroney nor Green has commented on this theory that they are together, internet detectives' evidence suggests that they might be dating or getting to know each other. Of course, the obvious and likely answer would be that they are just two people in the same industry, who live in the same (rather small) town, and perhaps are just friends who maybe share some more mutual friends. But that's not fun, right? I'm personally trying not to get hopes up with the thought of this couple, but I'm here for it, and I have been here for it as last year, when Moroney posted a picture of a mystery man, I was convinced it was Mr. Green. Talk about a full circle moment if true... Check it out: @twopupstuff Okay, girlies, hear me out #meganmoroney #rileygreen #amiokay? #youlooklikeyouloveme #fyp ♬ Am I Okay? - Megan Moroney Read some of the comments left on the post while you're here. "Maybe they’re just friends…hopefully." "Not me being jealous over someone I’ll never meet." "Definitely together, all the stories from both of their friends showed the same area." "I heard her laugh in the cold plunge video, lol." "That's a gorgeous couple, if true."  "They definitely are. They both were at the same bar last night, haha." "The hat is definitely his." "God I’m so jealous, go Meg."

Drop it, Luke, we are begging. Luke Combs is rolling out the unreleased songs during his tour Down Under. The North Carolina native kicked off 2025 with two massive shows in New Zealand and has now moved into shows in Australia, taking his music to multiple cities on the continent. https://www.instagram.com/p/DAEkZgmxsXd/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=38fba575-cca7-48c9-9665-2a10120022dd During his New Zealand shows, Combs debuted a brand new song, seemingly titled “Ain’t No Cowboy.” Hearing his performance of the heartbreak ballad left viewers wanting more, as they instantly fell in love with the tune. The lyrics highlight a man whose relationship has ended. He feels he didn't step up when he needed to fight for the relationship. The man feels like he “Ain’t No Cowboy” for stepping up, changing his ways, and being the man she needs. “Ain’t no cowboy, but I wish I was We would’ve rode off together In the setting sun Instead of watching her  Ride right out of my mind If I could have roped her heart back I could have been what she needed when She saddled up, and she kicked up a pile a dust Ain’t no cowboy But now I wish I was” @ogbunningssnag #lukecombs #jordandavis #lukecombstour #2025 #mitchelletenpenny ♬ original sound - OGBunningsSnag However, that is not the only unreleased track fans in the southern hemisphere are getting from him. During his show in Brisbane, Australia, Combs performed another track from the vault, "Pushin’ Up Daisies." Longtime fans of Luke Combs know this is not a new track from him as he first teased it quite a while ago. Last year, Combs shared a snippet of the song during a Country Music Hall of Fame event highlighting his exhibit, The Man I Am. "I wrote this song with Josh Phillips and Randy Montana sometime last year. It’s been stuck in my head for some time now. Might be good, might be bad. I don’t know, but I like it. It’s called 'Pushin’ Up Daisies.'" "Might be bad," come on now, Luke, you know dang well that it's hard for you to write a bad tune. "Pushin' Up Daisies" The song carries a deep meaning as he sings about walking away from a life-threatening car accident. The narrator reflects on how lucky he is to survive such a horrific crash and how he gets to grow old with his wife and be with his kids instead of "Pushin' Up Daisies." "That Trooper said, 'I don't know how you walked away Boy, you're lucky, this sure could have gone the other way.' Now, oooooh, all the life I would've missed out on Kids screaming, 'Daddy's back home' And growing old with their mom Oooooh, I don't miss my wild and crazy Out here picking wildflowers for my baby Instead of pushin' up daisies." The last two lines of the chorus perfectly tie in the meaning of the phrase "Pushin' Up Daises," as it means to "be dead and buried," comparing it to the polar opposite activity of picking wildflowers with his song. https://www.instagram.com/lukecombs/reel/DFTZ4rdxaU9/ Fans quickly filled up the comments, noting how moving the single is, and they hope he gifts it to fans sooner rather than later. Given that he has shared bits and pieces of "Pushin' Up Daisies" before and the high-quality video of the track from the tour shared to social media, one would think he's teasing it for release. But Combs is an artist who constantly shares his unreleased work with fans, so this might be the one he's digging right now, with no release date on the horizon. Given that this is the second unreleased song Combs has performed on this tour, I hope that means a new album is coming soon.

UTL COMMENT:- Here are my current thoughts on Trump (from an ex-massive trump fan).... Trump is merely picking the low hanging fruit and throwing it to "his crowd". The same crowd that cheers for him already, while they totally ignore his ridiculous statements and actions on other issues. Simply amazing to see how many are still brainwashed!!

We’ve tweaked, twisted, and twinkered with several recipes to make this incredibly delicious Ranch Seasoning! Ways To Use Homemade Ranch Seasoning Ranch Dressing This homemade ranch seasoning is perfect for making your own ranch dip. Mix it with sour cream, Greek yogurt, or a combination of both for a delicious, creamy dip that pairs well with fresh vegetables. We love it with carrot and celery sticks, bell pepper slices, and cherry tomatoes. It’s also great with cucumber slices, broccoli florets, and cauliflower.

Commonly Asked Questions What is the difference between buttermilk powder and regular milk powder? Buttermilk powder is made from dried buttermilk, which gives it a tangy flavor. Regular milk powder is made from dried milk and does not have the same tangy flavor. In this recipe, we use pure buttermilk powder to give our ranch seasoning that classic tangy kick. Can I use fresh herbs instead of dried ones? While you can use fresh herbs, we recommend sticking to dried ones for this seasoning. The fresh herbs may not last as long, and they can introduce moisture to the mix, which can reduce its shelf life. Why is there sugar in the seasoning? The sugar is added to balance the flavors. It doesn’t make the seasoning sweet, but it helps to round out the tangy and savory notes. If you’re concerned about sugar, you can use a sugar substitute like erythritol or simply omit it. How long does homemade ranch seasoning keep? This homemade ranch seasoning will keep for months in an airtight container, either in the fridge or freezer.

This Southwest Chopped Salad is a great way to get your greens, oranges, yellows, and protein! In This Article Why This Recipe Stands OutKey Recipe IngredientsSubstitutions And VariationsStep-By-Step Recipe InstructionsHow To Prep AheadWhat To Serve With Southwest Chopped SaladCommonly Asked QuestionsSouthwest Chopped Salad RecipeMore to Cook And Eat View more This post may contain affiliate links, at no additional cost to you. Why This Recipe Stands Out We love a good salad recipe, and this Southwest Chopped Salad is a winner. The combination of flavors and textures in this salad is just amazing. Here’s why we love it: Phenomenal Dressing: This creamy cilantro lime dressing is dreamy. It’s refreshing and light, despite being creamy. It doesn’t feel or taste heavy at all, like our Poppyseed Dressing. Vibrant Colors: This Southwestern chopped salad has the most beautiful vibrant colors with bright, festive, zesty, and tangy flavors. It reminds us of our Broccoli Apple Salad! Lunch Envy: It’ll create some healthy lunch envy if you bring it to work. It’s the perfect healthy dinner; add grilled chicken to make it heartier. Balanced Flavors: The cilantro doesn’t overpower the flavors, but lends a nice earthiness. Lime ensures a zesty tang, and honey gives it that sweetness to balance it all out. Make-Ahead Friendly: The ingredients can easily be chopped and prepared ahead of time and mixed up just before serving. It’s the perfect recipe for meal prep. Key Recipe Ingredients Romaine Lettuce – The base of our salad, romaine lettuce, provides a satisfying crunch and is a great source of vitamins and minerals. Black Beans – We love the meaty texture and earthy flavor of black beans. They also add a good dose of protein and fiber to the salad. Greek Yogurt – The dressing is made with plain whole Greek yogurt, which adds a creamy tanginess and a boost of protein. Corn – We use frozen or canned corn for its sweet, juicy kernels that add a pop of color and flavor to the salad. Honey – Just a touch of honey in the dressing balances out the tangy lime and yogurt, resulting in a perfectly sweet and savory flavor. Substitutions And Variations Here are some of our favorite substitutions and variations for this recipe: Greens: While we love the crunch of romaine lettuce, feel free to use any other type of lettuce or mixed greens as the base of this salad. Beans: Chickpeas or kidney beans would make great substitutes for black beans. Vinegar: If you don’t have white balsamic vinegar, you can substitute it with apple cider vinegar. Other Veggies: You can easily add any other veggie you have at home to this salad, and it’ll taste just as amazing. Grains: If you want to make this salad a bit heartier, you can add some cooked grains to it. Quinoa, farro, and especially barley would work great as in our Southwestern Barley Salad. Step-By-Step Recipe Instructions Blend all dressing ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasonings to your preference and refrigerate in an airtight container. Chop and combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl. Add the desired amount of dressing and toss to coat. Top with crispy tortilla strips if desired. Serve immediately. For full list of ingredients and instructions, see recipe card below. How To Prep Ahead Take a look at our favorite prep-ahead strategies for this recipe: Prep the Veggies: You can wash, dry, and chop the romaine lettuce, seed, and chop the orange bell pepper, and slice the grape tomatoes in half several days in advance. Store each vegetable in a separate airtight container with a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture. Make the Dressing: The dressing for this salad can be made up to several days ahead. Simply blend all the dressing ingredients until smooth and creamy, then transfer it to an airtight container and keep it chilled until you’re ready to use it. This Southwest Chopped Salad with Creamy Cilantro Lime Dressing has the most beautiful vibrant colors. What To Serve With Southwest Chopped Salad Protein This salad is a great side dish to any grilled or roasted protein. Try serving it with Grilled Chicken Legs and Air Fryer Salmon. You can also add some protein directly into the salad. Marinated Grilled Shrimp or shredded Crockpot Whole Chicken would be great options Sandwiches This salad also goes great with a tasty sandwich on the side. Try it with a grilled panini sandwich or some chopped egg and bacon sandwiches for a filling meal. Commonly Asked Questions Can I use fresh corn instead of frozen or canned? Absolutely! You can use fresh corn if it’s in season. Simply cut the kernels off the cob and add them directly to the salad. No need to cook the corn beforehand. What if I don’t have white balsamic vinegar? If you don’t have white balsamic vinegar, you can substitute it with apple cider vinegar. The flavor may vary slightly, but it will still be delicious. How long does the Southwest Chopped Salad keep? The assembled salad without dressing can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. However, once the dressing is added, it’s best to consume the salad on the same day to maintain its freshness. Print Southwest Chopped Salad This Southwest Chopped Salad with Creamy Cilantro Lime Dressing is intensely bright and colorful, both in looks and in flavor!

Add more seasonings to taste. Transfer to airtight container and keep chilled.In a large salad bowl, combine all salad ingredients. Gently toss to combine. Toss in the desired amount of salad dressing to coat. Top with crispy tortilla strips if desired. Serve immediately. Notes This salad is best when eaten soon after the dressing is added. If you know you will have leftovers, store the dressing and salad separately, and only dress the portion you will be eating. The dressing can be made days ahead of time. All of the salad ingredients (excluding the lettuce) can be prepped and stored ahead of time. When you’re ready to serve, simply chop the romaine and toss everything together. When chopping the orange bell pepper, make sure to remove the seeds and inner membranes. This will prevent the salad from becoming bitter and will give you a sweeter, more enjoyable pepper flavor. Apple cider vinegar can be used in place of white balsamic vinegar.  You can add a few dashes of ground chili or cayenne to the dressing if you’d like a bit of a kick.  Adding crispy tortilla strips just before serving keeps them crunchy and provides a tasty contrast to the other salad ingredients.
