This twice baked potato recipe is also a creamy, cozy, comfort food perfect for cold winter days! Check out my suggestions for variations to find some healthy mix-ins! Continue reading

Have you ever tried a savory pie? They make wonderful vegetarian main dishes for holidays that everyone can enjoy. This butternut squash spinach pie with an almond crust is loaded with veggies.
Eggs act as a binder to hold the veggies together, and add a little protein. The gluten free crust is made with olive oil and almond meal, so it adds a little more protein as well. Continue reading

Seafood is a special treat for me. I tend to reserve it for special occasions, like birthdays and holidays. These crab and shrimp stuffed trout fillets are no exception!

I spend a fair amount of time over on pinterest looking at recipe ideas and getting inspired by other bloggers. Buffalo pizza’s caught my eye there because I love all things buffalo. Reviewing recipes, I noticed that the sauce you can use on a buffalo pizza varies quite greatly. Some people use the buffalo sauce as a base, but that means every bite is is loaded with spice and their is no relief from the heat. Some recipes use bottled ranch dressing, but I didn’t like the sound of that either. I developed my buffalo cauliflower blue cheese pizza with a homemade blue cheese pizza sauce! Continue reading

I am crazy enough I might just have to try it, and report back! Continue reading

This week has been a very busy week for me (stories to come!), and has left me with little time to do my usual menu planning. When dinner time came around the other night, I was scrounging through the fridge trying to come up with a plan. I always start by looking at what vegetables I have, because I try to center my eating habits around getting plenty of veggies. When I realized the best combo I had was spinach and artichoke, all I needed was cheese and a delivery system to make a meal. I used my leftover spinach tortillas from my Zombie Burritos recipe to make these creamy spinach artichoke quesadillas! Continue reading

When you need a super-fast and easy meal, spaghetti squash probably doesn’t come to mind. However, cooking spaghetti squash in the microwave takes only 5- 10 minutes, depending on the size of the squash. That gives you time to prep your filling and dinner can be on the table in no time at all! Next time you need a fast and simple meal, try my pesto Parmesan white bean spaghetti squash bowls!

I made this pizza after their ultimate cheese pizza that we always enjoy on Halloween. My homemade crispy crust five cheese pizza is crunchy and super flavorful! Continue reading
