Happy (almost) New Year! 2014 was a fantastic year for sure! The blog got a makeover (which I love), and my husband and I found out we are expecting! I can’t wait for 2015 when we welcome our baby…. GIRL!!! It’s a girl! Yay! We are so excited! The end of 2014 has been especially […]
Can you believe that Thanksgiving is in just 2 days?! (And that it’s exactly one month until Christmas?!) I love hosting Thanksgiving, but it definitely requires a lot of prep! Here are some tips to help you get organized (and more importantly, stay calm!): Keep appetizers simple. Don’t overdo it. The meal itself is more […]
Hello there. (I hope you’re still there!) To say it has been a while is certainly an understatement! It’s been just over two months. I (think) I have a good enough excuse though… It’s very exciting news! And, while I’m feeling great now (in my 16th week), I was feeling exhausted and also a little […]
I’m breaking out my slow cooker again for an absolutely delicious meat sauce! It’s so flavorful, and it’s loaded with both ground chuck and hot sausage. I even snuck a couple of red peppers into it for some added nutrients. My husband never even noticed them! This recipe reminded me of my mom’s (and aunts’) […]
Before I get to this delicious grilled cheese sandwich, I just need to (ahem) apologize for going MIA the last two weeks. School started back up. It really is an adjustment getting back into the swing of things. I’ve come home every night the past two weeks with great intentions of cooking and cleaning and […]
I’m pretty sure I’ve said this before, but let me repeat myself… I love buffalo chicken! (Buffalo anything, really.) Buffalo wings, though, aren’t always the healthiest choice, so I am always looking for new, waist-friendly ways to get my buffalo fix. This salad did just that. The salad itself is loaded with the classic buffalo […]
I CANNOT believe that Labor Day Weekend is upon us! Where did the summer (or really August) go?! If you (unlike me) are going to be celebrating the holiday this weekend (perhaps at a BBQ?), here’s a perfect spiralized salad for you to bring. It’s light and refreshing, but also bright from the fresh lime […]
I have become obsessed with spiralizing zucchini this summer. That is for sure. I also, however, still love zucchini in a variety of other ways. So this simple three ingredient zucchini side dish was right up my alley. (It was also a great way to use some of the huge container of lemon pepper that […]
If you are a fan of Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad, then boy do I have a burger for you! These burgers were moist and flavorful. You could really taste both the Caesar dressing and the Parmesan cheese in them. They were really quick to make too, which is always a plus. I topped the burgers […]
I made this delectable steak dish to go along with my Greek Cucumber Noodle Salad. It had a lot of the same flavors and ingredients as the steak rolls, so the two paired well together. This dish is a simple premise: thinly slice some steak, sauté some vegetables, spoon the veggies onto the slices of […]
