You’ll Want a Second Helping of This Recipe I can remember when I was a little girl and I would visit my grandmother on weekends. She was always in the kitchen whipping up old family recipes. The first recipe she ever taught me when I was 10 was her infamous meatoaf. I can still taste [...]
All the Flavor Minus the Guilt of Pasta When I go to Olive Garden, my guilty pleasure is the chicken parmesan. It is hands down the best italian dish on their menu. The only think about going there is the guilt that follows after eating such a heavy meal (because you have to soak up [...]
Super Easy Citrus Shrimp Citrus and fish are always a great pair, but before trying this recipe I never would have thought to use orange juice! It turns out shrimp and orange juice are the perfect pair and I can’t imagine making it any other way now. My son and his best friend LOVE shrimp. [...]

There’s something about the veggies paired with the peanut sauce and squeeze of lime with the light noodles. It’s like a pasta dish but not heavy with alfredo or marinara sauce.

You’ll Never Miss the Beef in This Family Favorite Meal I can remember when I was a little girl and I would visit my grandmother in the country over the summer. She basically lived in the kitchen and was my main exposure to being cooking at that young age. She would always make all of [...]
These Will Melt In Your Mouth and Make You (and Your Kids) Dance! Some of my daughter’s friends got together last week and I wanted to make them a quick and easy lunch while they were working on a school project. I get tired of the same ole sandwiches and I’m sure they do too. [...]
