It’s one of those weekends where I am ashamed to admit that I had more carbs than protein. Far too many sweets were consumed. I am literally craving healthy food. White Bean and Kale Detox Soup is just a giant bowl of yummy good for you food. White beans provide fiber and protein, and the…

Citrus Spicy Chicken Tenders
People ask me all the time if I just come up with all of my recipes on my own. Truth be told, there are really few things that haven’t been done. Food blogging is about being inspired. I see an enchilada recipe and that prompts recipes like my Layered Roasted Vegetable Enchiladas. It’s not that…
Italian Turkey Veggie Meatloaf

Easy Fresh Tomato Basil Marinara
Summer is winding down, so it means that the farm markets and our own gardens are over flowing with produce. If ever there was a time to do as the squirrels do and stock up, this is it. I love getting into the kitchen and cutting corn off the cob, freezing fruit, making jam, and…
