I know what you’re thinking…two spinach salads in a row? Well I do always keep a Costco-sized tub of the green goodness in the fridge, but the truth of the matter is I made this one a while ago and I am just now getting around to sharing it. I don’t typically eat out during the week, for…
Chicken Tacos with Pickled Onions and Feta
You guys, it is the 14th of January and I have totally been sticking to my goals. I got in a couple of runs already, did some yoga, got the kids ready early for school, got some post drafts going. It sure feels good to be productive, but of course it’s so much easier when…
Grilled Chicken Avocado Melts
As you’ve probably figured out by now, I am not a big red meat eater. Although I do appreciate all food, I prefer eating a lot of plant-based foods along with occasional chicken, fish and seafood. It’s not that I don’t ever buy meat, it’s just when I am craving protein I usually go to…

Cooking something like enchiladas isn’t my norm for a typical weekday lunch, but I was sooo tired of sandwiches and salads that I’ve been eating so much of since we moved from Missouri. I had unpacked several boxes…

I am so glad that the temps dropped from high 80s to the low 40s just so I could post this recipe. You never know when it’s going to be a soup day. My grandparents are Greek and there a few things that my Grandmother makes that will always remind me of her: her Greek…
A Taste of Tex-Mex: Chicken Fajitas
I have to admit something….since growing up in Texas and having access to a plethora of fabulous Mexican restaurants, I almost always ate my chicken fajitas out at a restaurant and if we did make them from home they were the pre-marinated kind from HEB. I rarely, if ever, made them myself. I know, it’s…
