My pursuit of a good pasta substitute continues today. I've tried just about everything: zoodles, spaghetti squash---but this is the first time I've tried pasta made out of something other than sticky, glutenous carbs. While perusing the aisles at Trader Joe's last week, I found a red lentil pasta. Intriguing. I've had whole wheat pasta… Continue reading Shrimp Fajita Pasta

Chicken Bruschetta Zoodles
Fresh, crispy vegetables. Sweet, ripe tomatoes. Grilled chicken. Summer is finally here, y'all, and I'm loving it. I'm sure in about 2 weeks I'll be completely over the wicked Oklahoma heat, but for now---I'm soaking up the sunshine, what little of it I actually see. I love summer produce. Everything from squash to cucumbers, tomatoes… Continue reading Chicken Bruschetta Zoodles
15 Minute Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps
I originally wasn't going to take pictures/post this recipe. You see at least a trillion copycat P.F. Chang's chicken lettuce wraps on Pinterest when scrolling through boards. However, I think mine is the best of all. I'm sure other people think the same thing, but I'm not kidding---these are incredible. The best part? It only… Continue reading 15 Minute Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Buffalo Chicken Pepper Sandwiches
I can't remember the last time I had bread. Does naan count as bread? Because I had naan yesterday and was in immediate bliss. I'm not going to count it as bread, though. Sandwiches are one of my most favorite things in the world. Who doesn't love a good grilled cheese? Or a turkey-avocado sandwich?… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Pepper Sandwiches
Sausage & Peppers with Zucchini Noodles
I think I've probably slept for 12 hours over the last day. I don't know why I've been so tired. Maybe all the stress from last week? I was supposed to do a million things when I woke up this morning, but instead took a nap. Right after I woke up. Makes sense, right? I… Continue reading Sausage & Peppers with Zucchini Noodles
Chicken Marsala Spaghetti Squash
Everytime we go to an Italian restaurant, I always order the same thing: either chicken picatta or chicken marsala. I guess you could call me a creature of habit. I love those two dishes so much, I rarely stray away from them. I also always get a cannoli for dessert, because let's be honest...cannolis are… Continue reading Chicken Marsala Spaghetti Squash
Chicken Avocado Rollups
Snacks are everything in this household. I have to have snacks around me at all times. Just in case. There's nothing worse than being stuck and work and your only option on food is something really bad (calorie-wise) out of the machines. Snacks are a must. I usually have fruit to graze on in my… Continue reading Chicken Avocado Rollups
Chicken Parmesan Stuffed Zucchini
Alright, y'all. My obsession with chicken parmesan has hit a new level. I'm completely in love with the combination of crispy chicken, marinara, and cheese. I though I had made just about every recipe ever for chicken parmesan...but then I think of something new. This is one of those times. I really wanted to stuff… Continue reading Chicken Parmesan Stuffed Zucchini
Chicken Piccata Stir Fry
Let's talk about fruit baskets. Mine is getting a little out of control. What should be housing bananas and oranges inside it's wirey bowl, is loaded with avocados, whole wheat pitas, and tortillas. Two of those things are not like the other! My fruit basket has gotten so out of hand, I forgot I had… Continue reading Chicken Piccata Stir Fry
Chicken Satay Lettuce Wraps
I have a soft spot in my heart for lettuce wraps. I know, they sound gross. Nothing can compete with a regular 'ol sandwich, right? Wrong! Lettuce wraps are insanely delicious when they're prepared correctly. My favorite are these Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps which I make for lunch a lot around here: I made this new… Continue reading Chicken Satay Lettuce Wraps
