Avocado Toast

Posted on March 16, 2016 at 2:35 PM Comments comments (0)

Avocado on toast with salt, lemon, and pepper is one of my favority easy snacks to eat after I get out of a hot yoga class. It's super healthy and if you're feeling creative, you can top it off with just about anything! Some people add a scrambled egg on top or make it a sandwhich with tomotato, lettuce, and cheese. Laurie, from Simply Scratc...

Veggie Smoothie

Posted on March 15, 2016 at 1:35 AM Comments comments (0)

I love smoothies! My favorite blog for smoothie recipes, or "thickies", is Green Thickies. I especially like the vegetable smoothie recipe. Personally, I don't think this particular smoothie can be a meal replacement because it does't really keep you full long (it's super good for you though!), but there are many other delicious recipes on the blog that do. I'll share my...

I don't normally make chili this way but I'm giving it a try because it looks really yummy in this photo.


I found this recipe on Przepsity. It's in another language but I had my browser translate the recipe and then just made it mine.

Green Tea Lemonade

Posted on March 6, 2016 at 12:40 PM Comments comments (0)

I'm always on the lookout for new and exciting recipes, so I read A LOT of blogs. I've been reading a lot about lemons, honey, and green tea lately. The benefits of each is just astounding - so combine them and you've got liquid gold! The best part, in my opinion, is that it keeps you really hydrated. Which is incredibly important for me, as I practice Hot Yoga.


So I was reading different blogs about lemonade and ca...

Apple Pecan Salad

Posted on March 5, 2016 at 2:55 AM Comments comments (0)

OMG! This salad is amazingly delicious! It reminds me of the insanely overpriced one Wendy's has on their menu. Yes, I'm still mad that they wanted to charge me the whole amount even though I asked for it without chicken. So annoying!


Anyway, Tiffany, over at Creme de la Crumb...

Apple Sauce Cake

Posted on March 5, 2016 at 12:55 AM Comments comments (0)

My hubby grew up eating apple sauce cake. In fact, it's still his favorite cake, aside from Chocolate cake. His mom made it for him all the time and still does on holidays when we go over to her house. He likes it so much I had to learn to make it! 


Alison, over at Prairie Story, has a very similar recipe. I adjusted i...

Greek Style Chicken

Posted on March 4, 2016 at 11:30 PM Comments comments (0)

The meal I end up creating looks, and usually tastes, nothing like this awesome looking Greek Lemon Oregano Chicken dinner by Katie's blog: Good Life Eats but it's where the inspiration for this recipe came from. I have modified this recipe and cooked it in many different ways depending on how much time and energy I have. Still, the sauce is, in my opinion, what make...

Mexican Rice

Posted on March 4, 2016 at 12:55 PM

Ok, so this is not how my mom made rice while I was growing up (my parents are from Mexico) but it's really easy and very tasty. My mom's way involves a lot more work, maybe I'll share the recipe with you sometime - if I can find it!

 

Anyway, I found this recipe on one of my favorite food blogs: Cooking Classy, by Jaclyn. You really should ch...
