Yes I know, cauliflower crust is not a new invention. Maybe you were like me and kept thinking, hmmm that might work, but it’s too much work, or whats the point? Well, I finally tried it and guess what? It wasn’t that much work and yep it was worth it! Is this like deep dish pizza from pizza hut? Nope, it doesn’t really even taste like pizza dough but it creates.. Read More
I’ve been on a Mediterranean kick lately. I am in love the flavors that encompass some of these countries such as Greece, Morocco and Spain. There are actually 21 countries having a coastline on the Mediterranean, all with different flavor influences. Some of my favorite tastes include garlic, mint, olive oil and olives, oregano, cumin, paprika, turmeric, saffron, anchovies, rosemary and thyme. In particular I really love a spice blend called..

I had to include the word decadent in the description because it’s how I felt when I was eating this. Holy wow! This burger is moist and flavorful. Please don’t get fat-free turkey, a little dark meat is not going to hurt you! I promise. These toppings worked in harmony but feel free to mix and match them. I served on a portobello “bun” but feel free to use a.. Read More
What’s in your barbecue sauce? Ever look at the label? High Fructose corn syrup, caramel color, sodium benzoate, sugar, soybean oil, hydrolyzed corn or soy protein, artificial flavors, yellow 6 and red 40? Yikes! You can find some decent ones if you really read the labels but if you want to know exactly what’s going into your food and want one without added white sugar, then try this out! It.. Read More
Meatloaf its such a un-appetizing sounding word kind of like fruitcake or Spam, I don’t know why it reminds me of that but whatever. It’s ridiculously easy to make its cheap and best of all everyone will like it! You know why? If they don’t like meatloaf just slice it and serve it on a bun and you have a hamburger! This one is extra special because it has bacon.. Read More
So I admit I am a huge ramen fan (no not the fake stuff in the package) the real stuff! I have waited on the steps of Totto Ramen in NYC to be squished into a little table in the most narrow restaurant you will ever eat in, no A/C, but totally worth it! As I have adjusted my diet to be grain free and have become obsessed with my.. Read More
I guess this is kind of like Carbonara but with out hot pasta water you can’t really get the creamy texture and the egg ends up scrambled. But guess what? Who cares! This is healthier and so delicious you won’t miss the cream or the cheese! I kind of dream about this dish often……. Get a vegetable spiralizer here!I guess this is kind of like Carbonara but with out hot.. Read More
One of my favorite, easy week night meals is this simple basil pesto recipe. I usually serve it with pasta and a roitesserarie chicken. Recently I served it over my zucchini noodles and wow! that was my favorite vegetable noodle dish I have ever eaten! When I make the pesto I add in the cheese after it is blended. I take a few scoops out for myself for a dairy-free version… Read More
As I’ve said before I’m a huge fan of Asian food. So many delicious dishes with meat and seafood and lots of veges. Miso soup and sushi…yum my mouth is watering. I don’t know about you but every time I eat it whether it be Thai, Chinese or Japanese I get an upset stomach. I’m not sure if its the oil they use or the soy sauce or the MSG… Read More
I am in love with my slow cooker. I recently bought a new one on the recommendation of a friend that can brown the meat right in the crock pot. You can find it here on Amazon. I found that when a recipe called for me to brown the meat first I never did it because I didn’t want to waste a pan (and I’m lazy) so I’d just throw.. Read More
