One of my absolute favorite fast food meals in the world is a bowl from Chipotle. When you're on the go, or in a pinch, nothing can quite satisfy that hunger like a bowl of delicious Mexican food. I use the same toppings everytime, too: grilled peppers and onions, pico, cheese, sour cream and guacamole.… Continue reading Copycat Chipotle Carnitas Bowl
Spicy Asian Cucumber Salad
I think I'm finally over the hump. The hump of, "oh my god I'm not eating sugar any more let's freak out." That hump. It's been one week of going back to an ultra-low-carb diet and my body is finally starting to accept it. I was a rage queen there for a few days, and… Continue reading Spicy Asian Cucumber Salad
Pimiento Cheese & Ham Breakfast Sandwich

I make sure and wash my hands 27 times after cutting or touching chicken. Then you have the "stuffing" part to… Continue reading Unstuffed Italian Chicken
Thai Salmon Stir Fry
I've been hoarding all of these keto ideas and recipes and I'm finally getting around to posting them. Anytime inspiration strikes, I jot it down in my notes on my phone. I'll be laying in bed, about to fall asleep, when I'll think of something like, oh what if I make sloppy joe's but with… Continue reading Thai Salmon Stir Fry
Southwestern Turkey Salad
It's finally here. The day that I can debut pictures taken with my new camera! I'm still figuring out all the kinks. I'm not a still photographer. I was a videographer for years, using big & bulky Panasonic and DVC cameras...not small, beautiful DSLR's. I've also discovered I might be blinder than I realized---several pictures… Continue reading Southwestern Turkey Salad
