I’ve been a little preoccupied prepping for our baby girl, expected in July, so I haven’t had much time to post. But I figured I’d squeeze in this quick ’empty the fridge’ recipe before the day gets rolling. I bought a big thing of strawberries the other day, and we never seem to eat them … Continue reading
Healthified Chicken Enchiladas with Creamy Cilantro Corn
Another oldie, but goodie. My in-laws are in town, and this was a special request from Barb. Best compliment – a recipe request! These take a little time to make, but they’re super yummy! The recipe calls for cooked chicken, shredded. So I buy my usual rotisserie chicken and shred that. I also use a … Continue reading
Meatloaf, Parmesan Broccoli Mashed Potatoes & Homemade Creamed Corn
Talk about home cookin’! This is not my typical meal… but hubby was craving creamed corn and mashed potatoes, and he’s taken such good care of me this past week with this stupid cold I have. I finally had some energy today, and he’s been working really hard at work, so I thought I’d make … Continue reading
Southwest Potato Pancakes
It’s been a while since I’ve made these, but when I saw Simply Potatoes were buy-one-get-one-free, I remembered this recipe. These are a great vegetarian option, that won’t leave you missing the meat. Even my skeptical hubby was complimenting how good the meal was. These are quick, flavorful, filling, and inexpensive to make. And this … Continue reading
Zucchini, Carrot & Squash Noodles with Chicken and Peanut Sauce
You won’t miss the carbs in this delicious meal. It’s very flavorful, colorful, simple to make and healthy. Not to mention its great the next day served cold straight from the refrigerator! The vegetables are julienned and quickly blanched in boiling water, then served with some shredded chicken and an easy-to-make peanut sauce. The vegetables … Continue reading
Lasagna Soup
I haven’t made this one in a while, but now that its getting colder (well… As cold as it can in FL!), soup seemed like a good choice. This is fairly simple to make, just takes a little “simmering” time. As the name states, its the soup version of lasagna. Tomato-y, cheesy, pasta, and Italian … Continue reading
Lamb-Stuffed Baby Eggplant
This recipe was a treat for mom one night. My moms favorite food is lamb, and I’ve been wanting to use these baby eggplants I kept seeing in Costco, so this recipe was the perfect solution! The flavor was outrageous! These aren’t difficult to make, there’s just a little prep work and a few steps. … Continue reading
Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Salad
Chicken quinoa recipes back-to-back, just because. I guess I’ve been on a quinoa kick lately. That’s a good thing. This recipe takes a little longer than the previous quinoa recipe, but its got a totally different flavor profile. Quinoa, broccoli, chicken, carrots, blue cheese and green onion – this takes the flavor of buffalo wings … Continue reading

Oh hey… Thought I forgot my blog, did ya? It’s the holidays… Cut me some slack 😉 I was trying to think of what to make for dinner tonight, and this meal popped into my mind.

Pumpkin Beer Tasting
This beer tasting was done about a month ago, so I’m a bit behind, but I still wanted to post it. My husband and I love craft beers. We love checking out local breweries, and sampling new craft brews from around the country. Every fall we check out the seasonal brews, and this year we … Continue reading
