Making simple, easy meals. Life is complicated enough, why should our food be too?
I have the most awful habit of not eating breakfast. I am not one of those “wake up at 6am, eat breakfast and do stuff” morning people. I am the “wake up 30 minutes before I have to be at work and scramble to remember my purse when I run out the door” people. This… Continue reading Vanilla Coconut Pancakes
The burger Gods are smiling down. I don’t know why I wasted so much time trying to cook burgers on the stove top. Seriously. Now, I know there’s people out there that think it’s a tragedy to cook a burger anywhere other than a grill. I understand that. I agree. There’s nothing like a juicy… Continue reading The Perfect Oven Baked Burger
Have you tried Enjoy Life's Mini Chocolate Chips? Mini chocolate chips are not only the cutest thing I have ever seen but they are absolutely perfect in literally, everything sweet that I make! Which, I guess is really not that much. But, I have been making these No Bake Energy Bites for months now because… Continue reading Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Protein Cookies
When I first posted a photo of this recipe on Facebook, I called it “Coconut Crush Chicken Nuggets,” because “Coconut Flour Chicken Nuggets” just didn’t have the same excitement about it. And, I’m all about the marketing, you know? But, I realize now that Coconut Crush doesn’t really make sense. And it doesn’t mean anything.… Continue reading Coconut Chicken Nuggets
The best thing about zucchini is its versatility. Summer squash is in the same boat. They both taste so salty and delicious, they make great additions to any meal and excellent substitutes for noodles. My only complaint? Because there always has to be one…. TOO MUCH WATER! I absolutely hate that even if I sweat… Continue reading Summer Squash Goulash
Hell has frozen over. Pigs are flying. MY HUSBAND LIKES ANOTHER SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE! The conversation went a little like this: Husband: “you know what I actually really liked, even though I didn’t think I would?” Me: “Spaghetti Squash green chile enchiladas?” Husband: “yes, what is the sauce you put in there? It’s actually… Continue reading Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas over Spaghetti Squash
NO! I have writer’s block. This is the worst. Especially because I have a ton of new recipes to share after the last two weekends! I guess since I don’t have anything clever to say, I’ll stick to the food. I saw a recipe for a maple mustard pork from Pretty Paleo and thought it… Continue reading Maple Mustard Pork
It is a gloomy, rainy Sunday here in Minnesota. There is something just so comforting about Crockpot meals on rainy days. Put the food in the pot, then sit back and relax with some TV while the crockpot does all the work! That’s my kind of meal prep day! Of course, I have other things… Continue reading Crockpot Pot Roast with Mashed Potatoes
It’s been a while since I posted, 24 days to be exact and I wish I could say I have been off exploring the world, or doing something super exciting. But I haven’t. I’ve been working. A lot. Like 6 days a week a lot. Working out, a little (3 – 4 times per week;… Continue reading Crockpot Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie (Kind Of)
Hey folks! I know, I know. It’s been a while. I have been really busy lately with work and life, and that has put a serious curb on my creativity. I am still cooking, creating new dishes. But I have not been able to find that little spark of spunk that keeps you all reading,… Continue reading Spaghetti Squash Enchilada Casserole
