Who knew that veggie tacos could be so amazingly delicious and filling?!
Oh, well... me - of course!
I am always trying new and interesting ways to add more vegetables into our lives here. It's not always an easy task if you have a preschooler who's more than a little finicky when it comes to food...
Read MoreI have really been in the mood for peaches lately. Perhaps I'm more ready for summer than I thought. In the summer, peaches have to be one of my most favorite things in the world to eat.
I couldn't be more happy about the city of Fredericksburg being right down the road from me. A lot of the locals from there will sell their homegrown peaches on the side of the roads here when peach season is upon us. It's heaven...
Read MoreFor the longest time, I never knew this little trick. You can fake-bake your potatoes in a slow cooker, and it's so super easy that it's pretty ridiculous!
I've been using this method for a while now, and it's definitely handy during the hotter spring/summer months when you don't want to boil the house up with turning your oven on. Plus, the potatoes can sit there and cook through the day leaving you not to h ave to worry with them at all...
Read MoreA while back I made this Tortellini en Brodo soup, which is not only one of my favorites, but also a favorite of my mothers. I could seriously eat that soup at least once a week for the rest of my life and never get tired of it. Yes. It's that good.
With spring in full swing and with fresh basil and pesto all around... I wanted to use the same basic idea from my Tortellini en Brodo in a more spring/summer friendly version of the soup...
Read MoreI know, I know... there's a lot of people out there (mostly in the northern states), that don't have any idea what pimento cheese is - nor what they are missing out on with it not being in their lives!
I've made a Skinny Pimento Cheese before, but I always wanted to go back and make a spicy jalapeño version of it because... well, I love spicy stuff. Besides... what goes better with cheese than jalapeños anyway?...
Read MoreWhen I was first hatching this plan, I was looking to make tostadas, but I really wanted more of a meatless recipe for the week. I always have at least one meatless dinner a week because it saves time, money, and usually a few calories!
Anyway, I figured... I love tostadas and I love 7 Layer Dip... so why not put the two together?
Perfect!...
