This post is sponsored by Blue Diamond Almonds.A year ago, I never would have thought I would be eating salmon, much less loving salmon.  Now I cannot get enough of it. Though fresh salmon can be on the pricey side (um, $7.99 per filet is rough on my credit card), I try to treat myself to [...]

Simple three-ingredient Lentil and Refried Bean Taquitos that are protein-packed, vegan, and gluten-free. I thought I had hit the jackpot back in August when I made taquitos with refried beans and hummus.  Don't get me wrong.  The refried beans and hummus combination is delicious!  But this time I made us all something even better. A couple [...]

My biggest struggles with following [...]

A super simple Greek-inspired chickpea salad that is chock full of veggies.  It is a delicious spring/summer side dish and the perfect make-ahead lunch. I am craving salads like mad right now. Salads with lettuce, salads with pasta (GF now), and of course one of my favorites, chickpea salads. At this point I am not discriminating. [...]

A super simple fried rice recipe that is gluten-free and chicken-free, but is certainly not skimping on flavor! Last week I mentioned that I recently made the decision to try out a gluten-free diet.  I have been working with a functional medicine center for the past month, and in speaking with my nurse practitioner and reviewing [...]

This dish looks like all sorts of summertime.  It tastes like it, too! About two weeks ago, Omaha enjoyed 88 degree weather in the middle of MARCH.  It was slightly [...]

A step-by-step pictorial on how to build The Best Veggie Sandwich using nearly everything but the kitchen sink. My sandwich cravings have been off the chart lately. A couple of years ago I heard "sandwich" and automatically thought it meant "unhealthy."  Boy was I wrong.  With the right ingredients, sandwiches are not only delicious, but [...]

Happy Friday the 13th!  I feel like it was just yesterday that I was posting that same sentence.  I guess it was only a month ago.  Keeping with the tradition (I realize it's not really a tradition if this is only the second month) of sharing a Friday Foodie Favorites post on Friday the 13th, [...]

Friday has rolled around again (thank goodness!) and so has another roundup of my favorite recipes from other bloggers.  I like to think that Friday Foodie Favorites are a bit different from many other food-related Friday Favorites post.  Why?  Because I make and eat everything that I share with you.  Therefore, all four of the recipes below [...]

In my weekend wrap-up post on Monday, I mentioned that a little fondue-ing happened this past Saturday.  I also stated that it did not turn out quite how we had hoped.  In this month's Three Cooks One Kitchen post, I am going to share How to Throw a Fondue Party.  Or perhaps I should say, [...]
