I’ve always been a believer of holistic approaches as a first attempt to treating illness and battling disease. It only makes sense that what you put into your body will affect how you feel and how your body functions. Ever since I saw the documentary Food Inc. I have changed the way our family eats. [...]
This picture and meal was actually made last summer, so don’t think I’m cheating on my health kick! Since New Years I have been doing yoga and eating much healthier and I’m FINALLY at my pre pregnancy shape. Finally. Now it’s time to tone, tone, tone or these legs will never see the day of light [...]
Did you know bacon has 0 carbs??? The package says 0 grams of carbs. That’s awesome! We noshed on these for a snack this weekend. Deeeeelishus!! All you need is asparagus, bacon, olive oil and black pepper if you prefer. Toothpicks help secure the bacon if grilling. If oven roasting, I think you could get by [...]
In Germany they have glühwein. In France they have vin chaud (warm wine). I’m sure there may be technical differences between the two, but when I was in France I loved the vin chaud much, much better than glühwein. It reminds me of a winterized sangria. It’s quite delicious and is sure to warm you [...]
Dear Ina Garten, I love you. Every Ina Garten recipe I have ever made has turned out delicious. Her choice of ingredients and equisite taste makes her recipes just simply divine. I’ve had a bag of frozen salmon filets in my freezer for a month or so and was trying to figure out what to [...]
I made these for my Halloween Party. These are easy. They are cheap. They are quick. And they are yummy. Perfection.

These are great because they are finger food. And bite size. And jalapenos, filled with cheddar and wrapped with bacon! MMMMMMMMM. You will need 1 package of bacon (approx. 12 ounces). It really depends on how many you plan on making. For this recipe I made 20 jalapeno things. You will also needs jalapenos, no [...]
Earliar this week I made this exact recipe, but with chicken thighs instead of wings. They were so delicious I just knew that as wings they would be just as incredible. And in spirit of the superbowl I decided to give em’ another go. I found the recipe from Carmen Cooks. I definitly recommend these. Although [...]
Good food. Good beer. Good friends. Good commercials. Oh yeah…and football, which this year should be a good game. Honestly I don’t care who wins. It’s more fun to watch when you really want one team to win over another, but I just don’t care. At first I was going to go for the Saints [...]
I first made this a few months ago for a game night we hosted. The recipe comes from her greatness, The Pioneer Woman. It’s meaty, cheesy and just slightly spicey (or more if you want). What more could you want in a dip? This really is a great appetizer for UFC fight nights, a Super [...]
