I know what you are probably thinking. "What in the world is wrong with this girl?  Something that is green and something that is purple should not be combined.  At least not when it comes to food." But hear me out... Yes, that is avocado. Yes, that is blackberry jam. And despite the fact that [...]

Guess what day it is?  No... not Wednesday.  It is Friday! Even though most of us only had a four-day work week, I am more than ready for Friday to be here.  And what could make Friday even better?  Well, not much.  But I think some delicious recipes just might do the trick!  Get ready for [...]

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 [...]

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)? Have [...]

Lentils?  Roasted root vegetables?  Cauliflower rice?  Barbecue sauce? Did I mention that this contains barbecue sauce? Yeah... I might have a slight obsession with every single ingredient in this hearty dish. Hungry yet?  Me too! But you are going to have to head on over to Erin's blog, Girl Gone Veggie, for this one because [...]

Some people like sausage on their pizza. Some people like black olives. Some people will only eat pizza if it is topped with pepperoni. And some people keep it simple with plain cheese. <-- I love a good cheese pizza! While I am a cheese pizza lover and definitely eat my share of veggie pizza, my [...]
