When you're limiting your diet to lean proteins like chicken, turkey, and seafood---trying to think of new meals centered around those three things can get tough. There's only so much you can do to chicken before you start to get burned out and bored. Seafood can get expensive, so that's a once-in-a-blue-moon type dinner.

Portobello White Pizzas
Call it what you will. One of the greatest inventions of all time. The best thing since sliced bread. A food everyone can agree on. A food with thousands of different versions to choose from. A great battle between Chicago and New York. Pizza. It's the one food in our culture that not a single… Continue reading Portobello White Pizzas

I get inspired by a recipe and I… Continue reading Wild Rice Pilaf with Sweet Potato & Mushrooms

I couldn't really pinpoint down a favorite food, per se, but I could whittle it down to two different types of foods: Mexican and Asian. If you look at most of the recipes I've… Continue reading Mexican Street Corn Style Grilled Zucchini
Chile Relleno Soup
The lack of soups in my kitchen has been surprising. It's probably because we haven't had a bitterly freezing cold snap yet this fall/winter. When it's not cold, I'm not a fan of soups. I'm glad I made this soup this weekend, though. I had my final (!!!) deep cleaning on my teeth yesterday and… Continue reading Chile Relleno Soup
