Everyone seems to be spiralizing veggies these days. It’s easy and healthy. Instead of having just squash as the ‘noodles’, I like to add in a little spaghetti as well. There is nothing wrong with a little pasta. Good carbs are important to have in your diet. So I use whole wheat spaghetti but […]
This is a sauce you have to make because it is sooo versatile! In the picture I’ve smothered salmon fillets with it. What I had leftover, I heated up the next morning and used with fried eggs, toast and avocado. Yummy! It would be great with potatoes, chicken, etc. Awesome sauce! To those of you […]

We have pizza most Sunday nights. I try to vary it so we don’t get bored. Tonight was a caramelized onion mushroom pizza. I use the pizza crust below (from the freezer section in Whole Foods) b/c it’s very thin and whole wheat. But use whatever you like or make your own if you’re ambitious! […]
In this household we are what they call ‘pescetarians’. This means we eat fish and seafood in addition to veggies but no meat. Awhile ago I went with the popular ‘Meatless Monday’ theme. Most other days of the week we will have some sort of seafood/fish but on Mondays it’s pure vegetarian. So today is […]
Tonight I opened the fridge to see what I could make. I had asparagus, snow peas, and mushrooms that needed to be used. Immediately it became a stir fry night! I happened to have some frozen shrimp in the freezer but you could make it with chicken or just veggies if you wanted. I thawed the […]
