High Pockets Paleo Pasta

A friend shared this chicken, tomato pasta recipe a while back and our family has always loved it.  I thought of it recently, and even though Mike & I are not doing pasta or cheese, it still makes an easy, delicious healthy meal our whole family enjoys.    Here is our Paleo-ified version of High...

Fruit Salad

One of our traditions is to have fruit salad Christmas morning.   Although fresh fruit is more expensive (and out of season), it’s a healthy splurge I don’t mind making –  I feel like we take in so many sugary sweets around the holidays, it’s refreshing to have something healthy and delicious to munch on....

Overnight Coffee Cake

My nephew made this coffee cake when we visited them in Montana this summer.  It was really good, and it’s easy to make — it’s a great choice for a brunch or Christmas morning.  It’s meant to be made overnight but you can also make it the morning of and it tastes fine too....

My Favorite Salsa Recipe

I discovered this salsa recipe from The Pioneer Women a few years ago.   I love it and we make it frequently, with a few tweaks to make it our own.  I love that the recipe uses canned tomatoes because it makes it easy and affordable to make all year long. Not only is good...

Cookware Alternatives to Non-Stick

When we married in the late 90s, I requested and received a set of Circulon cookware.   Over the years, I have become disenchanted with non-stick cookware in general, and my Circulon in particular.  So, I’ve been slowly converting over to other styles. One of our first non-stick purchases was a pair of cast iron...

Blue Cheese Dressing and Wings!

One of the things I love about fall is the return of football.   Specifically, watching my beloved, tho beleaguered, Washington Redskins.  I grew up watching them during the Golden Gibbs Era, and every  year I remain deluded hopeful about a return to glory.  (This could be the year!) Anyway, I love football more than...

Iced Coffee

Do you know the Pioneer Woman?   I am admittedly,  a big fan.  She shared an Iced Coffee recipe recently, and like thousands of other, I was hooked.  Unfortunately, I don’t have the space she has to make everything in gigantic quantities, so I’ve taken her recipe and halved it to make it more manageable...

Quinoa-Avocado Salad

Ever since I saw this recipe in the Wegmans magazine, I’ve been hankering to make it.  I didn’t think it would be a big hit in my house, so I waited until I had a chance to bring it to a dinner with friends.   It was well received by most of the adults and...
