Kale Caesar Pasta Salad
I love kale. There I said it. I know it’s not the most popular thing to say in some circles, but I really do love kale. The last picnic I attended, I brought kale chips. I made everyone try one. As expected some loved them and some did not. Bottom line- I am an ambassador…
Brussel Sprout Salad with Herb Dressing
I love me a roasted Brussel Sprout. Once I discovered how good roasting them was, I realized I actually like them. I’ve found I don’t like them boiled or steamed. You might be like that too. Perhaps the only brussel sprout you’ve encountered comes all limp and tasteless from a frozen bag. This Brussel Sprout…
Zucchini Stuffed Lasagna
I know we’ve all seen those zucchini “noodle” recipes floating around the internet. While I enjoy a zoodle as much as the next person, in lasagna, I need the noodle.

With the number of flowers budding on this plant, I better get creative with the zucchini recipes. These Zucchini Flax and Chia Morning Muffins are the perfect zucchini recipe. They sneak some veggies…
Easy Instant Fruity Oatmeal Cups
Easy instant fruity oatmeal cups are one of those recipes that helps me avoid those sugar bomb oatmeal packets from the store. There’s a lot of unaccounted for ingredients and sugar in there, and the fact is, I just want oatmeal. I am so sad when the last one is gone for the week. The…
Strawberry Lemon Muffins
There’s just something about a beautiful muffin and a cup of coffee. Although I often order oatmeal or an egg sandwich at my favorite coffee place, the giant sugar topped muffins are always staring me down. Today is grocery day and as I started to clear the fridge and get inspired, some strawberries that needed…
