Kale and Tuna Salad with Avocado and Mint

Kale and Tuna Salad, a healthy, Paleo-friendly, grain-free salad perfect for weekday lunches.  As I sit here waiting for my Stitch Fix to arrive, yes I am still doing that, but haven’t photographed the last 10 or so boxes because I got lazy, I try to decide whether that or this kale and tuna salad…

Sweet and Spicy Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Hi friends! Happy Wednesday. This post was supposed to go up sooner, but alas we ended up in the ER again last week. My 4 year old, the one with the presumed asthma and the one who has made quite a few appearances to the ER, like on this day, had a crazy allergic reaction to his immunizations/flu…

Avocado Egg Toast

Did everyone have a nice long weekend? We went to the beach in Galveston, Texas to visit family and had a great weekend just hanging out. I really miss living close to the water, the beach in particular as I had about 8 years living less than a mile to the beach in California and Hawaii. I love…

Salmon Salad BLT

Helllllo! Can I just express my frustration at this thing called technology? Since we’ve had our internet set up- 3 weeks I guess? the service has been terrible. Unbearable really.

Migas {Tex-Mex}

Fact- it’s hard to make scrambled eggs look pretty in pictures. I’m obviously craving all things Mexican these days. Ever since our Mexican food extravaganza on Christmas eve I can’t get enough.

Green Ways to Pack A Lunch

Hi friends! Today I want to talk about environmentally friendly ways to pack a lunch.  I always keep foil, saran wrap and plastic baggies on hand, but we rarely use them for our lunches because there are so many great reusable options. For the month of August my three oldest are all attending my daughter’s…
