I adore pasta. I think I might have mentioned this before. The dough-y goodness of it. Someone once told me I should just put the sauce I like over vegetables because that’s the flavor I really missed. But no. Not for me. I could eat noodles all day long with just a pinch of salt. …
This is the second installment of the great freezer meal prep of 2018! If you missed the first post, I previously shared my Cabbage Leek soup. This is what happens when you take a nutrition class, then go to the store and buy too much produce! Quick easy meals for me, and new recipes for …
I’m going to be honest, I don’t really love chicken. I don’t know why and I can’t put my finger on it, but I can only eat so much plain jane chicken. However, when incorporated into a recipe with flavor, I can eat it all day long. I don’t know about you, but I’ve found …
I remember walking into my house as a teenager (who knew everything of course) and wondering what that horribly awful smell was. Turns out my mom was on the cabbage soup diet. I obviously wouldn’t recommend this for so many reasons, although I think she did lose quite a bit of weight during that experience. …
This is my fourth pregnancy. Which means that my maternity clothes have seen better days. At this point my entire maternity collection is a mismatch of 5 year old clothes that are worn out, hand me downs that are also worn out, pants that are not a cut I wear anymore, baggy ill-fitting clothes from …
We have this banana problem in our house. If I buy 2 bunches, they’re gone in 2 days and everyone is sad. If I buy 3 bunches, 6-7 of them go bad. I don’t know why this happens, but it drives me crazy! Fortunately bananas are cheap (thank you Costco)! Every time they start to …
Turning things that are not noodles into noodles is the “thing” right now, if you didn’t know. While this can be rather delicious, there are a few rules I’ve learned about this process. #1) Never turn vegetable “noodles” into spaghetti. #2) Never try to make vegetables be a “noodle”. So basically you can see that …
They say blondes have more fun. I’m not so sure about that as a natural brunette. But it begs the question, do blondies have more fun?!? I have to say a resounding YES!!!!! I’m not a big fan of chocolate, and I definitely have to be in the mood. Which means brownies don’t typically beckon to …
This is the very first installment of my new series titled Super Sunday. I love sharing recipes, but there’s so much more to a gluten free life than just food. Especially for those that are dealing with chronic illnesses, a healthy lifestyle needs to incorporate so many more elements such as fitness, wellness, life balance, …
I’m not what I would call a fad dieter. I do, however, have quite an interest in nutrition. Last year I jumped on the documentary train with everyone else and became interested in a plant based diet. I discovered that the vegans were intense, the plant based people hated oil and all fats, and that …
