Happy Cinco de Mayo! While I am less than thrilled about the fact that it is Monday, I cannot help but be a little bit happier than I am on the average Monday since today is the kind of day where you can literally consume as many tacos, enchiladas, nachos, chips and salsa, and margaritas as [...]

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 [...]

I'll admit it.  I used to hate hashtags.  And then I got Twitter.  And then Instagram.  And then I got sucked in.  I am not a crazy hashtagger, but I do use my fair share of them.  And because I am feeling rather lazy today, I am going to revert to my new friend- #thehashtag- for this [...]

chocolate peanut butter oatmeal bake

Well that is a mouthful, now isn't it? The truth is, I could not leave out a single word from the title because you need to know that it contains chocolate, peanut butter, and oatmeal.  And if you are like me, then you associate the phrase "breakfast bake" with "easy make-ahead breakfasts," which are my favorite kind [...]

Is there anything prettier than Mexican food?  Okay, maybe I should be more specific...  Is there anything prettier than Mexican food that contains a plethora of fresh Spring and Summertime vegetables?  Yeah, I didn't think so. If you are familiar with my recipes or spend some time purusing my blog, it will come as no surprise [...]

WIAW: April 23, 2014

It is official.  I am not the greatest at remembering to take pictures of my food for WIAW posts.  And when I do remember, I hardly ever take my WIAW pictures ON Wednesday.  That is so wrong, right?  Last week I featured my Thursday eats and this week I am featuring my Tuesday eats.  I seem to [...]

Chinese food...on pizza?  I know, I know.  To some it may sound like a strange combination.  But if you are adventurous and cool different like me, then you just might look at this combination and think..."hmm, now that is something that I need to try!" Naturally, as I often do when I sit down at my dinner table [...]

WIAW: April 16, 2014

It's Wednesday!  Who is excited?  I know, I know... it's not Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.  But, it is also not Monday or Tuesday, so that is something to be happy about.  Another thing to be happy about is the topic of food.  Food and nutrition talk both make me happy and could literally take up [...]

There are just some sandwiches that I cannot forget.  Some sandwiches that I cannot get off of my mind.  At one point in my life, one of those sandwiches was a barbecue pulled pork sandwich.  Now I have not eaten pork in over two years, but what I have eaten is my own take on [...]

I am a meatloaf kind of girl.  Always have been, always will be.  And yes, despite what you may be thinking, a vegetarian can be a meatloaf person.  Scratch that- a "meatloaf" person.  While it may not be the "real" deal, meatloaf made with beans, lentils, and/or veggies is really quite fantastic. Now that we have established [...]
