Cracking eggs one carton at a time.
I've spent the last two days trying to readjust my sleep schedule. I usually work nights (11pm-7:30am), but for the next few days I'll be working in the land of the living. It's been more than a year since I've been to work when normal people are there. I'm so used to spending mass amounts… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Spaghetti Squash Boats
Cole slaw is one of those things you either love or hate. If you bring it to a cookout or party, sometimes it will all go fast...or other times people will hardly touch it.

I guess it was inspired by the Cinco de Mayo holiday last weekend, and it's just continued from there. Most of the Mexican food I make is a… Continue reading BBQ Chicken & Sweet Potato Layered Enchiladas
One of the hardest things about eating better is that starving feeling you get in between meals.
