Peppered White Bean, Kale and Egg Stack

I have to say, the Jan/Feb 2016 edition of Cooking Light is quite possibly the best collection of new recipes I’ve seen in the 5 years or so that I’ve been a subscriber. I always get excited when it arrives in the mail, but I…

Mushroom & Chicken Marsala Bowls

So far in 2016, I’ve made it a point to try some new things in the kitchen. The other day, for example, I poached eggs for the very first time (they were perfect – I’m sure I won’t be able to replicate that experience…

Ginger Chicken, Shiitake and Scallion Soup

After a mild December, it’s finally gotten cold here in Georgia. In fact, as I write this, it’s sleeting outside. Yuck. There’s nothing I like more in the winter months – both to make and to eat – than a good homemade soup. Today…

Grapefruit, Avocado and Prosciutto Salad

Prosciutto is one of my all-time favorite foods. I love it in salads, on sandwiches, wrapped up with some melon (if you haven’t tried that combo, do it – do it now), as part of a cheese plate or simply on its own. My husband loves it…

Lemony Kale Quinoa

 Pair this light, citrus-y side with the Chicken & Bell Pepper Saute for a wonderful weeknight meal…

Chicken & Bell Pepper Saute

I can’t really express how much I love cooking, especially when it comes to doing so for my family. There’s just something about making a delicious, healthy dinner for my loved ones that makes me really happy. More often than not, my husband will go out…

Roasted Grape and Feta Salad

As promised in yesterday’s post, today I’m giving you the recipe for a super flavorful salad that I really think you’ll love. I’ve served it as a side for soup (as you saw yesterday and as is shown in the picture) but…

Italian Turkey and Orzo Soup

You may have looked at the title of today’s blog and thought – really? Soup? Alright, I KNOW it’s been ridiculously, uncomfortably hot lately (especially for those of us who are 28 weeks pregnant…not naming names or anything), but honestly I LOVE a good…

Spinach & Pancetta Stuffed Potatoes

Ever since I fell in love with the White BBQ Chicken Potatoes that I shared on this blog quite some time ago, I’m always intrigued by “stuffed potato” recipes. They’re usually pretty simple and make great weeknight dinners due to their minimal effort and…

Spicy Shrimp & Mango Stir Fry

Happy Saturday, friends! To be really honest, I’m not a huge fan of shrimp. My husband, on the other hand, loves it, so every now and again I’ll make it at home. This recipe is from the April 2014 edition of Cooking Light (my favorite publication…
