Cooking for carnivores and a vegetarian at the same time is hard. And by “hard” I mean there’s always at least one of them – and possibly both of them – whining about what I’m making for dinner. As a former vegetarian, I really don’t care if there’s meat in my dinner. My husband, however, […]
Game Day Favorites
Still don’t know what to make for that Super Bowl Party you’re going to? These are my go-to recipes for game day eating. And not just because they are SO good (in my humble opinion of course) but because you can still enjoy your company – and the game – all while serving up a […]
Alex’s Vegan Pancakes with Warm Cinnamon Apples
Alex, the Happy and Yummy daughter, has decided to go vegan so I am expanding my repertoire in the kitchen quite a bit. She has a habit of sitting in bed watching YouTube videos about making vegan food in the morning so at least once a week she appears in the kitchen and asks for […]

Have you ever done a “Strive for Five”challenge? We have one going on at the office now and I was sure I would have no trouble exceeding the recommended 5 servings of fruits and veggies every day. Well, it turns out I fell short of that goal on almost half of the days in the […]

Mango Lemon Green Smoothie
Necessity is the mother of invention, and that is exactly how this recipe came to be. A while back, when large cups of green juices became a respectable lunch, I decided that I would get on the smoothie bandwagon. I went to my local overpriced “natural” grocery store, waited in line for 20 minutes, and […]
