My New Obsession & Meal Planning

So I have a funny story. My mother-in-law is a member of the Blue Star Mother’s Group, an organization for mothers of men and women serving or who have served in the Armed Forces. She is very active and it seems like a great organization. Several of the women in the group send my husband…

With the exception of today which is rainy, we’ve had gorgeous weather over the past couple weeks. The clear blue skies have me totally craving grilled food and vegetables. Love spring!

Greek Salad Bites

One of the things I will miss most about moving is our monthly Bunco group. It’s such fun girls night out and so convenient because most of us live on post so we aren’t driving more than a few miles. We each bring a dish to share, booze and a $10 gift to exchange after…

Black Bean, Corn & Poblano Tacos

I don’t think a recipe like this would have appealed to me as much if I wasn’t eating vegan for the month, but I made it a couple weeks ago and it will definitely stick around in my meal rotation. This can be vegan or vegetarian depending on whether you want the cheese and sour…

Vegetarian Goat Cheese and Roasted Red Pepper Sandwich

Think you’ll miss meat in your sandwiches? Try this! I made this tasty sandwich a while ago….weeks after I created this one. It was hearty and very satisfying for a vegetarian sandwich- such a refreshing change from our typical lunch. The herbed flavor goat cheese is just scrumptious and I love anything with basil leaves…

Spaghetti Squash with Tomatoes, Olives and Feta

I often like something I’ve made for dinner, but haven’t the time to photograph it properly to include it on the blog. Well here is to being far less-than perfect. I snapped these images with my iphone and they are just going to have to do! I’ve been buying a lot of squash lately and…

Pesto Pasta Salad Perfect for a BBQ

Pesto Pasta Salad Perfect for a BBQ

One of the kid’s favorite pastas is pesto pasta. I have not been able to make homemade pesto due to the fact that the basil in the grocery stores is close to $3.00 for a pathetically small amount. It’s been devastating. Then we finally went to Lowe’s a couple weekends ago to gather some stuff…
