I love this summery, fresh salad. And even though I would love nothing more than to experience some fall-like weather, it’s still pretty hot here in the South and it may not cool down for quite a few more weeks. In the meantime, I’ll keep enjoying some of my favorite summer foods – like this […]
A few weeks ago we were at our local farmers’ market when I saw what I thought were gourds and picked them up because I thought they would make a great fall decoration. As I was paying, I was informed that what I picked up was an acorn squash and that I needed to EAT […]
I’m always on the hunt for new and interesting ways to prepare veggies. And ways that my kids will eat their veggies without me having to drown them in some sort of cheese sauce (or bribe them). This Garlic Roasted Broccoli is it! So far, the one way that we ALL seem to love our […]
This to me is the freshest of fresh tasting dips! I think it’s the cucumbers – really just reminds me of summertime. Plus, I got them from my local farmers’ market so I think that makes it all the more fresh tasting. Yes, I was dipping cucumbers in my tzatziki! I couldn’t help myself. […]
I didn’t start cooking with eggplant until about 3 weeks ago. I remember one time I tried to make it years ago and it was mushy and just…yuck. But I’ve learned a few things since then and thought I’d revisit it. Now my husband and I are kind of obsessed with it…and this simple grilled […]
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 […]
We eat sweet potatoes a LOT. Really, a couple of times a week for sure. And I pretty much always prepare them the same way. Very simply – roasted with just a little salt and pepper. Delicious, but I was bored of it! So I decided to try something completely different – microwave sweet and […]
If you struggle to get your kids to eat their veggies, these are a must try! They are crisp and salty and so flavorful…they will never know they are getting something that’s good for them. It is nearly impossible to stop eating these. This recipe SHOULD serve 4, unless you realize they are so good […]
This Crock Pot meal has moved up to our #1 favorite dinner lately. It is seriously so unbelievably good. It’s a toss up for me whether I like it more in a tortilla like a burrito or just over brown rice. One time I didn’t have any green onion, so I substituted it with red […]
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 […]
