I'm running out of salad recipes. Since I don't like to leave my desk for lunch, I typically bring a salad with me for lunch every day. That way I can eat and work at the same time. Salads are just perfect for the work-through-lunch type of people. I've tried just about every salad under… Continue reading Caribbean-Style Chicken & Mango Salad

Tuna Cobb Salad
There's a sale on oil-packed tuna at Costco right now. It might not sound like that big of a deal, but when there's a sale on tuna, I jump on it. I eat a lot of tuna. I love it so much, a few years ago I signed up for a settlement with Starkist. As… Continue reading Tuna Cobb Salad
Jerk Salmon Salad
If it's not from the sea, it ain't for me. At least, that should be my catchphrase right now. I've been on a total seafood binge lately. Everything from canned tuna to shrimp to scallops is on my radar right now. Seafood has always seemed really expensive to me, but now that EVERY protein is… Continue reading Jerk Salmon Salad
Hawaiian Sheet Pan Meal
After more than a week of not leaving the house, the walls start to feel like they're closing in on you. Don't get me wrong, I love social distancing. Our apartment is cozy and we've got everything we need right here. I'm a homebody and someone who secretly rejoices when plans get canceled. However, I… Continue reading Hawaiian Sheet Pan Meal
BLT Breakfast Salad
I was a photographer for television stations at the beginning of my career. The term "photographer" is a little misleading, though. I was a videographer. There's a massive difference between how people shoot pictures and how people shoot video...and how people shoot television news. I knew my camera like the back of my hand (a… Continue reading BLT Breakfast Salad

I've got salads, dinners, soups and snacks. All of the recipes are just waiting on me to post them so the world can see. Once… Continue reading Zesty Winter Pork Stew
Sausage & Apple Hash
The fall and winter vibes are hitting hard in my house. I feel like I'm constantly chopping apples, sipping pumpkin spice coffee, or washing my hands with peppermint-scented soap. I love this time of year. It's both Christmasy and Fall-y and beautiful and cool. I wish every month of the year could be like this.… Continue reading Sausage & Apple Hash
Smoked Salmon Salad with Lemon Pepper Dressing
I'm living for weird and different salads this summer. Another thing I'm living for? Making my own salad dressings. So, I may have flubbed it a bit on the homemade caesar dressing, but lessons learned. Now, I'm a salad dressing making machine. Just call me the Dressing Wizard. My preferred dressing of choice is a… Continue reading Smoked Salmon Salad with Lemon Pepper Dressing
Fish Taco Salad with Shrimp & Avocado Salsa
I find Mexican food comforting in these trying times. It's not so much the days are hard to get through, but any time I feel super stressed out or have had a bad day--Mexican food is there to cure my blues. Usually I would dive head first into a pile of salt tortilla chips and… Continue reading Fish Taco Salad with Shrimp & Avocado Salsa
Chicken & Zucchini Poppers
Snacks play a really important part in my life. I can't go more than a few hours without a pick-me-up, and having homemade snacks at the drop of a hat is a must. I usually take a snack break around 3 in the morning (remember, I work nights!) and that's after eating my "breakfast" at… Continue reading Chicken & Zucchini Poppers
