Beef and Chick Pea Moroccan Stew

One of my clients asked for a healthy dish with MORE flavour! This recipe will do it! I easily adapted this from Looney Spoons online by adding beef. I’d like to think that chick peas are enough protein for my husband and sons, alas…they are not. Easily made vegetarian though by leaving out […]
Healthier Butterfinger Bars

Anytime I strap on the ol’ apron and start baking, my kids have one question…is it healthy? NOT because they want the healthier option…heaven forbid! No, it’s because I have “fooled” them one too many times with my black bean brownies and my almond meal, sugar-free cookies. So, I suppose I can’t blame them for […]
Turkey Fried Cauliflower Rice

I wanted to use up the cauliflower that I had in the fridge for almost a week now. Do you ever do that? Buy tons of veggies and then let them rot? Who me? Never. My family is a fan of the cauliflower rice so I thought I would do something with that. I usually […]
Grilled Peaches

A nice light dessert to finish off any meal! It’s the end of summer and I wanted to have one last family bbq before we all launch into our busy year ahead! Every September I host a challenge called Sober September and in it, participants choose a “vice” that they willingly go without for the […]
Mexican Quinoa Turkey Sausage Salad

[yumprint-recipe id=’1′] I’m in LOVE with trying out different salad recipes. A salad like this differs from a straight lettuce salad in that if you make a big batch, the ingredients are hearty enough to last up to 3 days in the refrigerator. Plus, this salad has all the […]
Lemon Date Coconut Bars

So, the sweet tooth has been rather sweet lately. Sometimes I just need, need, need. This little gem of a recipe helps curb that and is only sweetened by the naturally occurring sugar in the dates and coconut. These are fabulous wrapped individually and stored in the freezer for an easy grab and go. I […]
The Deconstructed Salad!

My mom brought this salad to our New Year’s Day dinner. It is so fabulous and so simple! Directions: Set out a big bowl of torn up Romaine lettuce. On a large platter, compile all of the toppings that you can think of that go well in a salad! Set out a homemade vinaigrette and you […]
Paleo Bacon Chicken Cauliflower Rice Bowl

Loooong name for something so simple! Well, at least you know what’s in it now. If you’re looking for a dinner dish with lower carbs, this one is for you. Brown rice could be swapped in for the cauliflower rice if you choose. Recipe: 3 pieces of bacon – cut and crispified 2 garlic cloves […]
Buffalo Chicken Crockpot!

Buffalo Chicken Crockpot I am loving the fall crockpot recipes these days! So easy and so tasty. Spending just a few minutes to plan the night before is so much less annoying than throwing together something the last minute. This buffalo chicken can be served in a variety of ways, so you can have it […]
Clean Eating Caramel Corn!

The holiday season is one of those times when my family goes NUTS with the baking! My mother’s holiday cookies are extravagant, magazine worthy, and most of all delicious! I find myself frequently reaching for a treat, not because I’m hungry but simply because they are visible and convenient! I LOVE my mother’s butter tarts […]
