I am definitely a pizza kind of girl. And I am definitely a breakfast pizza kind of girl. Breakfast pizza is somewhat of a staple here in the Midwest.  And if you grew up eating breakfast pizza like I did, you know that the best places to buy it from are gas stations, especially Casey's General [...]

You are probably looking at this picture and thinking, "are those peas?" And guess what?  Your eyes are not failing you.  These enchiladas do, in fact, contain peas. Now before you go thinking that I am crazy (or maybe you still will or already do...), hear me out. My hometown is rather small and does [...]

Kind of looks like guacamole, doesn't it? Well... not quite. What if I told you that this delicious green goodness was actually made from one of my favorite Springtime vegetables and that it does not contain a single bit of avocado (though I am definitely kicking myself  for not adding avocado to this sandwich)?

Happy first day of May!  Crazy, right?  Let's celebrate with a smoothie making party.  After all, green smoothies scream Spring and Summertime ...even though technically I drink them during the Winter too! ;) I am obsessed with green smoothies.  Ever since my beautiful Ninja Ultima arrived at my doorstep about six months ago, I have [...]
