What came first? The chicken or the egg?
I guess we'll never know, because neither are used here!
I really can't say enough about this sandwich. I am in love. This sandwich actually reminds me a lot of a chicken salad or egg salad sandwich, but without the chicken or the egg. It has the same general idea and texture though...
Read MoreIf you're looking for a super easy and fresh Mexican inspired side dish for the summer, this is it! This salad takes all of 5 minutes to prepare and toss together while tasting absolutely amazing with it's bright and bold flavors.
This dish actually reminds a bit of a greek antipasto salad, except that it's meatless and hints towards Mexican roots. There's queso fresco instead of feta, jalapeño in place of peperoncinni and the proud zing of some lime and cilantro added in there...
Read MoreI needed a bit of a lift today after the exceptionally long weekend of festivities. Not only was it the 4th of July, where I was busy BBQing and roasting in the Texas heat... but, it was also my mother's birthday. Happy Birthday Mom!
Now, I feel as if I should start off by saying that I am generally not a smoothie fan. I would much rather indulge in eating my calories rather than drinking them (unless they are in the form of wine, of course - hah!) Plus, the task of actually making a smoothie always seems incredibly daunting to me... That is until I got my new handy emersion blender for my birthday!...
Read MoreI've had this wrap at the back of my mind for quite a long time now. It has been suggested to me more than once that I should post a 'wrap' friendly lunch (thanks, mom!) I'm trying to cut out some of the meat in my life this week; eating cleaner and leaner in the process.
I'm going a little Mediterranean here!
This wrap is definitely full of good stuff. Once again, we're eating the rainbow, which is never a bad thing.
Well, unless it's in the form of candy... and even then it's debatable!
Read MoreHow is it that eating the rainbow always seems to taste sooo amazing? There's something about all those natural bright colors that just set something off inside, making it extremely difficult not to smile when you see all of them together. And when in edible form too? Even better!
After all, who wouldn't want to eat a rainbow?
No big deal. I totally ate a rainbow for lunch.
Sounds pretty epic, right?
Plus, this salad is every bit as tasty as it is nutritious. I'm pretty sure that this is going to be a staple salad in my household throughout the summer months...

Read MoreParfaits make for a great breakfast or dessert during the summer months. They're easy. They're tasty. And you have virtually endless possibilities with flavor options! Plus, they don't heat up your kitchen. ... Something which is often a deal breaker for me once we start getting into 100+ days.
Can you tell that I'm already dreading July and August? Ugh...
