This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste buds, but Tyler loved it! It is from the most recent issue of Cooking Light and it’s an interesting use for sweet potatoes.

Tyler picked this recipe out of the latest Cooking Light. If you haven’t checked out CL recently you should. Last month they launched their new design, with a photo of EVERY recipe. It is fantastic. Many more recipes than before, and less of the travel/exercise/beauty filler they were using so much of before. This noodle [...]

This chicken was delicious, and quick and easy to boot. Pitting the olives took the most time, so I recommend you buy olives that are already pitted to make meal prep even easier! Also, don’t forget to add the feta cheese like we did!

Well we are certainly on a garden kick now that ours is yielding all sorts of goodies. We even have a banana pepper about ready to be picked! I had some leftover cherry tomatoes to use up and my favorite way to eat cherry tomatoes is roasted, with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Even [...]

The latest copy of Cooking Light is chock full of amazing looking recipes, many utilizing one of my favorite foods: strawberries! I saw this salad and while I typically try to avoid fruit in my salad (sweet things with salty things tend to bug me), I decided to try it and I am so in [...]

Last weekend I finally went through my google reader to get inspiration from my starred recipe. I’ve had this one starred since last summer and Tyler cooked it up for dinner on Monday night. It was good but a little too spicy for me (I blame that on Tyler who often dumps spices in without [...]

Tyler made this recipe last Saturday as a bit of a Valentine’s surprise. I had to work that day and informed him that I did not want to have to do dishes at the end of the day, so while a nice elaborate romantic dinner would be great, I’d rather we just get pizza! Instead [...]

Oh my goodness friends I can’t believe it’s been 3 weeks since I posted! School has kept me insanely busy and we are doing easy easy meals for dinner these days, and often Tyler is the one doing the cooking. I often resort to PBJ when I’m really busy with homework. This recipe was Tyler’s [...]

This is another recipe I tore out of an old issue of Real Simple. It was an easy recipe, although chopping up all the ingredients and shredding the chicken did take a bit of time (and help from the husband). Worth it though, because this meal involves very little actual cooking and it is full [...]
