Making simple, easy meals. Life is complicated enough, why should our food be too?
Another staple in our weekly diet is salmon. Last week my stepson (19) was over as I was meal prepping and he saw this salmon come out of the air fryer. He asked about it and said it looked amazing. He said our meal prep is way more exciting than his. Not to brag, or… Continue reading Air Fryer Honey Garlic Salmon
Have you tried the new grain bowls at Panera? I did, and it was delightful. I tried the Mediterranean Bowl w/ Chicken. It was so good that I feel like I could literally eat it for every. single. meal. But, that would get quite expensive so I decided to make my own grain bowl! Take… Continue reading Mediterranean Grain Bowl with Turmeric Rice
Now that we are eating really clean, we gotta keep it interesting in the kitchen. Chicken and vegetables is definitely a weekly go to – but adding different flavors is important.

I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Meal prepping is hard and time consuming. But, it doesn’t have to be! I’ve been meal prepping one day a week for TWO YEARS now, without skipping a beat.

Well hello again! I know, it has been too long. I can’t believe I haven’t posted since February 3rd. Talk about slacking. It was a busy, busy week. All of last weekend’s meal prep was done for the husband. I spent the week in Houston, Texas at my company’s Leadership Conference. What an amazing time… Continue reading 10-Minute Chicken Fried Rice
January 3rd, 2016 – DAMN, that is going to take some getting used to. I am most definitely that person that writes the wrong year for the first 3-4 months. By the time I finally get in the habit of writing 2016, it will probably almost be 2017. 2015 was a great year. It was… Continue reading Hamburger & Mushroom Casserole
WARNING! There is absolutely nothing unique or creative about this meal. Sorry. But, if you haven’t discovered the joys of curry – this will help.
