Honey Mustard German Potato Salad

How awesome is honey mustard? Its one of those things that tastes good on just about anything, I might even go so far as to say its more versatile than ketchup (GASP!).  Yup that’s right, I said it.  I love it on salads, fish, sandwiches, dipping sauce for sweet potato fries, I could go onContinue Reading

Chicken Club Lettuce Wraps with Roasted Garlic Mayo

So I’ve been on a little bit of a lettuce wrap kick lately.  I made lettuce wrap turkey tacos last week when my mom was visiting so I decided to keep the trend going and make some chicken clubs using lettuce wraps instead of the usual white bread used on club sandwiches. The flavors wereContinue Reading

Mixed Grill Salad

Guess what? Summer’s coming. At least I think it will. Someday.  We seem to have been caught up in a 50 degree time warp but for now I’m going to look outside at that beautiful sun and imagine it’s 80 degrees out there. Pretend with me will you? The farmer’s market will be opening soonContinue Reading

Mexican Sweet Potato Shepherds Pie

Holy moly, what a Friday, huh??  I had plans to post this recipe Friday morning but then when I woke up at like 4:45 AM for boot camp, and then, well, I guess you can probably imagine that I was a little distracted about the crisis that was unfolding in Watertown.  My brother was stayingContinue Reading

I took a (much-needed) walk with Oto this afternoon and it completely refueled me.  It wasContinue Reading

Super Orange Juice & Creepy Bird Adventures

Do you ever wonder if you were the first person to say a sentence? Like in the history of the world.  Ever? I’m pretty sure that no one has ever said the sentence “Super Orange Juice & Creepy Bird Adventures.” And if they have, I would like to meet them because we might have aContinue Reading

Crunchy Peanut Portobello Noodles

Happy Almost-Easter everyone!  If you don’t celebrate Easter, Happy Friday!  Our Easter celebration includes a nice dinner and up until a few years ago an incredibly competitive Easter Egg hunt.  We don’t hunt for those regular huge colored eggs, that’s for kids.  No, we hunt for those tiny dove dark chocolate eggs.  The motivation toContinue Reading

What I’ve Been Eating {Wednesday}

So I’m going to switch things up a bit for What I Ate Wednesday today.  Instead of telling you what I ate yesterday, I’m going to talk a little bit about what I’ve BEEN eating, in general.  When I met with my friend Heather a few weeks ago she mentioned that she noticed a switchContinue Reading

{Healthy} Mint Chocolate Chip Fudge

Healthy?  Say WHAT??  Yes, this delicious treat is healthy.  And that beautiful green color?  No food coloring or artificial dyes, just a nice handful of fresh spinach! I can’t say that St. Patricks day is a big holiday for us as neither of us are Irish and I’m a little bitter that they are theContinue Reading
