This recipe was absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, I can not take all the credit. I was trying to figure out what to cook for dinner but was unsure. I knew I had Quinoa and a bunch of tomatoes, but was stuck on what to do with it. Ofcourse, I went to America’s number one search engine,…

Easy Cod Fish Tikka Masala
This was a delicious dish that I was able to create in no time. I worked all day seeing clients back to back, then got off and attended my bike meeting for BreakawayRVA, and then joined in at a networking event until 9:00pm. Yes, I was tired. I was drained, but my family still needed…
Pasta con le Sarde
Also know as, “Pasta with Sardines.” This meal originates from Sicily. My Italian roots shine through on this one. This is a national dish of Sicily. It’s either pasta with italian sauce only, pasta with italian sauce loaded with vegetables, or pasta with italian sauce, veggies, and sardines! At one point I would add boca crumbles…
Pep it up!
Pep it up by adding Bell peppers, also known as sweet peppers, to your daily dishes. You probably have noticed by now that staple ingredients to most of my meals include peppers. If your thinking its for spice or heat, your wrong. Bell Peppers are not only good, but they are good for you. Peppers have way…
Simple Sweet & Sour Tofu
As a working mother, I love simple and easy meals. I actually have a copy of a cookbook titled, A Man, A Can, A Plan, that was created for men with recipes that do not require tons of ingredients. The recipes within this book are quick, tasty, healthful meals based on canned and other convenience foods. When making…
Szechuan Salmon with Pepper Salsa
Tonight’s dinner was fish focused. Primarily we eat vegetarian dishes, but we still love our seafood. Pescatarianism is what we practice majority of the time. This is a diet that includes fish or other seafood, but not the flesh of other animals. Most pescatarians maintain a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet. This would include us as well….
Crispy Kale Chips
Potato Chips vs Kale Chips. Kale Chips wins. Most commercial chips, and this includes corn chips, potato chips, tortilla chips, you name it, are high in trans fat. Many also contain genetically engineered ingredients. I have heard people mention “kale chips” and decided to see what all the talk was about. I now see why….
Asian Inspired Ladies Night
When my friends and I get together its typically a night filled with chitter chatter, giggles, wine, and food! Instead of going out to restaurants we enjoy creating more of a “themed night” in which we decide what are the foodies of choice and what it might be inspired by. This particular night we decided…
Baked Egg & Plantain Frittata
This morning I was at a stuck point on what to cook for breakfast. I had just came in from doing a 10 mile bike ride, took a shower, helped my kids brush their teeth, and at that point I was just ready to eat. We do not usually have meat on the menu so…
West African Peanut Soup with Cod Fish
For starters, this was sooo good. My hubby made it a long time ago and in trying to decide what to eat for dinner on this night I recalled this dish and went for it. This was my first time making this. My hubby nor myself is West African, however he is Haitian and we…
Skillet Apple Pie
This week I made dessert two nights in a row! Let’s just say that is not my normal routine following dinner. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy a nice dessert when maybe at a restaurant for a special occasion, but I do not normally make or in this case bake desserts at home. My hubby…
Coconut Curry Tofu
I am a firm believer of home cooked meals for my family. Honesty eating take out is unhealthy and doesn’t align well with our budget. Despite always cooking and being in the kitchen, I hadn’t done so as much as would have liked in 2015. My 2nd daughter was born 10/19/14. During maternity leave and…
