With the holiday season winding down, we’re approaching the inevitable point where the body craves a resolution to detox and “get healthy”. I don’t know about you, but Thanksgiving to New Years is a blur of food and parties that leave my body begging for the glorious end to it all, where I can just go back to […]
I’ve had this recipe posted for awhile, but I’ve made a few updates and wanted to highlight it again because I just love it! The flavors and combination of ingredients are so unique, and yet so simple and festive, you can’t help but love it as an addition to any holiday get together. If your family […]
I really love Mexican food. The flavors, the aromas, the simplicity of fresh ingredients coming together in a colorful display. I have many happy memories from my childhood of devouring homemade nachos, fajitas, or tacos and only buying lunch at school on the occasional “Mexican-haystack” lunch day. Still today, nothing hits the spot like a fiesta-style entrée! Unfortunately, the freshness […]
Guacamole is basically a staple at any gathering I host. There is nothing like a freshly made guacamole. Forget the store bought stuff…they have tried and unfortunately failed to capture the real zing and flavor of guac. I’m often utterly disappointed at the guacamole’s I come across. Flavor from real, fresh ingredients is addicting, which […]
Last week at the market I received a bag of green, purple, and yellow string beans in my bushel of vegetable goodies…not to mention the green bean bushes in my garden have begun to recover from the critter damage and are now producing delicious green beans! Needless to say, it was time to make an awesome […]
I saw a similar snack for sale at a store and of course my thrifty instincts told me that I could easily make a comparable snack for much less money at home. It was effortless. It takes me longer to clean my food processor than make this snack (okay sight exaggeration but you get the point). I’m […]
It can get boring having the same flavors and seasonings over and over again each night of the week. For us, it tends to be some sort of Italian concoction of flavors; however, as much as we love it, having a cuisine of a different region can be quite refreshing. If you’re not accustomed to […]
I am absolutely loving this beautiful weather, and with the warm spring temperatures comes the two G’s: Grilling and Greens. Our garden is booming with leafy greens such as spinach, arugula, and leaf lettuces, not to mention the greens we also got from our CSA! What to do but make a new recipe that will […]
By now it is no secret that I love my vegetables! (and not just because my mother said I should). Sadly, an often forgotten gem of vegetable is the Brussels Sprout. I really believe, however, that the key to great Brussels Sprouts is preparing and cooking them correctly! It really comes down to texture for most people…no one wants […]
I have decided to take on another new venture in the world of beauty products: Homemade Hand/Body Lotion. One of my good friends has recently started making homemade soap and lotion bars and I have been the gracious recipient of samples which I am in love with! Seeing her and others make these homemade beauty products shows […]
