I have no idea why it took me so long to try avocado chicken salad! It is simple and one of the most delicious lunches I have ever have. I ate it on toasted bread as a sandwich one day, over lettuce leaves and tomato slices the next and it was awesome just scooped right […]
Usually when I get my monthly magazines in the mail, they immediately get tossed one of my (MANY) magazine baskets I have around the house until I have the chance to read them. For some reason, I was compelled to open this month’s Clean Eating magazine right away and there was one salad in there […]
WOW – how pretty, right? And it’s so simple – sometimes simple is best! I did three ingredients for this salad – spinach, strawberries and chopped almonds. The poppy seed dressing is amazing!! I was trying to come up with one that did not contain milk or mayo to keep it lighter. It is perfect. […]
I first made this tomato, cucumber and red onion salad just last week, have since made it again and plan on making it again this week! I’m a little obsessed. And it’s not even summertime yet so I know the tomatoes are just going to get better and better. We are lucky here in Savannah. Because […]
This salad could not be more simple – or pretty! I love all the colors in it! Even my husband, who was less than thrilled when I told him we were having a salad for dinner, loved this. I started by dicing some chicken and cooking it in a pan with a little olive oil […]
I made this as a side for dinner one night and ended up eating it for lunch for the next 2 days. It’s hands-down my absolute favorite way to prepare quinoa right now! The flavors are still very summery, but hey, when it’s 80 degrees and October then I think it’s all right. Everything about […]
I love pasta salads and am constantly on the search for new and different ones. I am in love with this recipe! Since making it the first time, I’ve made it quite a few other times. Great to take to a summer picnic or as lunch on the beach. It’s so light. No mayo or […]
A healthy, hearty salad that is also pretty gorgeous if I don’t say so myself! Loaded with tons of good for you ingredients – chicken, eggs, avocado, veggies and black beans. We ended up using bottled Ranch dressing to top this. If you want to make this even healthier, feel free to try your hand […]
You’ll probably start to notice my blog take a turn toward eating healthier in the upcoming months…which is a good thing! However, before you run screaming, just know that I made a pan of brownies last night so I’m taking baby steps. Sometimes you just need brownies… This was my first time preparing and even […]
I had been in the mood for tacos, but kept forgetting to buy hard taco shells at the store! So I used some of my regular fix-ins’ for tacos – cheese, lettuce and tomatoes and turned it into a layered salad…or dip? This dinner came together in no time at all. We ate this by […]
