I love potatoes! I’ve probably consumed approximately 2.7 million in my life. I never get sick of potatoes, and there are so many delicious ways to prepare them. Twice baked potatoes happen to be a top 3 potato dish for me. Crispy shells, with a warm, buttery, cheesy and bacony filling. I mean how can…
Cauliflower Rice
I don’t know what took me so long to try out Cauliflower Rice. For those of you not familiar, it’s pretty simple. You grate cauliflower or throw it in a food processor until it breaks down into rice-sized pieces. Then, you just cook it down until tender. Cauliflower Rice is born! It’s a great way…
Jicama Fries
Confession…I have not always been a fan of trying new things, especially when it comes to food. I find something I like and stick with it. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, right? Well, the husband is pretty much the exact opposite and loves to be adventurous with our eats. I’m happy to say he’s rubbed…
Baked Summer Squash
Hey, guys! Today I’m doing a fun guest post for my good friend Cheryl over at Cheryl “Cheffie Cooks” Wiser. For all of you visiting from her site, Welcome! Today I’ve got a fantastic summer recipe using seasonal vegetables. Summer Squash is great! It’s popping up all over the place this time of year, has a mild flavor,…
Roasted Carrots
Roasted vegetables are delectable! The heat brings out a wonderful sweetness. Carrots are one of my favorite veggies to roast and there’s really nothing to it. They come out flawless every time. Ina Garten is the queen of the simple roasted vegetable. We are obsessed with her roasted brussels sprouts and these carrots are right up there….
Macaroni and Cheese
Macaroni and Cheese is one of those meals that just brings you to your childhood. It was probably my favorite meal as a child, and is still right up there as an adult. Pasta and cheese, what’s not to love? This recipe is a little more grown up than that nostalgic blue box we all know….
Rice and Beans
I have unapologetically consumed approximately 1,473 Pumpkin Spice Lattes in the past week. I’m beginning to turn orange and that’s just fine with me 🙂 My brother and I have been sharing pictures back and forth of all things pumpkin. We’re pumpkin fanatics! We get very serious about our pumpkin consumption. If fact, we cannot consume…
Best Green Beans Ever
I get a little skeptical when recipes claim to be “The Best Ever”. The Pioneer Woman has staked her claim with this one, and with 80 5 star reviews on Food Network’s website, it’s hard to argue. I’ve been making green beans more frequently with them growing rapidly in my garden and this was our favorite…
Cucumber Salad
Summer is the season for salad. This is one of my favorites! Lettuce doesn’t always need to be the center of attention. This Cucumber Salad is cool, refreshing and full of flavor. Fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, salty feta and a tangy Italian dressing make a wonderful salad. It’s the perfect start to any meal and takes no time at all to put together. Cucumbers are in…
I love everything from cake to kale. Life is all about balance. I like to live, laugh and love to the fullest! Our time is too short not to enjoy ourselves.
