It should come as no surprise that I’d make this Chickpea & Vegetable Tagine. It’s got a lot of my usual suspects: zucchini, chickpeas, spices, a little weirdness. I refer to the cinnamon as part of the weirdness. I love finding recipes with something…
Almost a month ago, I shared My Road to Getting Fit. I talked about what’s been working for me to get moving, eat better, and measure my success. I’m happy to report that I’m still going strong. I’m down another three pounds and I…
Get ready to click the print or save to recipe button on this one! It’s been a few months since I’ve made a shrimp dish, which is really a shame because they cook so quickly, are packed with protein, and are low in calorie.…
This Warm Brown Rice and Chickpea Salad with Cherries and Goat Cheese may sound a bit unusual, but it’s fantastic. I really wanted to make it with Rainier cherries, but I don’t think they’re quite in season yet. You could make this with any…
My seventh Stitch Fix came last September. What’s Stitch Fix? Read my first post to find out more. I’m reporting on my fixes several months after receiving them, but that lets me tell you what I’m actually still wearing of what I kept. I’ve…

I do the happy dance when I find recipes for my favorite foods, but that are healthier versions. It’s like having your cake and eating it, too! I love beans and rice, especially when I can swirl them with a dollop of creamy, cool…
It never ceases to amaze me how you can spend hours in the kitchen prepping a dish or you can spend minutes, and both come out tasting fantastic. Funny how food works that way. Luckily this Corn Frittata is the latter. It’s a breeze…
I’m a big salad lover, especially ones with different flavors, textures, and unique ingredients. I made this Moroccan Salad with Cilantro Orange Dressing over the holiday weekend and it was fantastic. You can eat it warm or cold, and it makes a great light…
Y’all…I seriously went nuts over these Chicken, Kale, and Mushroom Chimichangas. I mean I figured they’d be tasty, but I had no idea just how tasty a chimichanga could be, especially if it’s not deep-fried and smothered in cheese and sour cream. I have…
I’m continuing to eat low calorie as much as I can, but I really don’t want to miss out on some of my favorite foods like pasta and cheese! Enter Spaghetti with Creamy Basil Pesto. I had a feeling this dish would be awesome…
