Grilled Shrimp and Avocado Salad with Asian Vinaigrette Recipe
Sunday is usually a big day around here for the kids and I. We make snacks for the week, perhaps some exciting dessert or side dish, and we take a billion photos … but yesterday, with the soaring temps and humidity, we didn’t cook at all, save a quick, easy new coleslaw recipe that will [...]
Salmon Cakes Recipe
Canned meats totally and utterly freak me out. Seriously, they do. My husband happily enjoys canned tuna and chicken, but I cringe at the site of the stuff. However, when I saw a food magazine that I like tout the wonderful ease of using canned salmon, I was intrigued and bought a can. Naturally, it [...]
Easy Green Salad with Roasted Salmon Recipe
What do you eat for lunch? People always talk about how important it is to have a good breakfast, but it’s also really important to have a good lunch — one that is filling, satisfying and healthy. For me, lunch is sometimes a sandwich or pasta, but more often it’s a salad. Salads served topped [...]
Buttery Roasted Shrimp Recipe
Our massive lawn is buried deep beneath snow. Our driveway is still white, though passable even with my little Civic. And those big C9 lights that I rushed to put up a few weeks ago really glisten against the wintery backdrop. It’s a winter wonderland out there. For the first time in years, Will got [...]
Fabulous Fish: Baked Lemon Herb Cod Recipe
Sometimes, you taste something – just a little bite of it – and it blows you away. That was the case with this dish. It was rich, buttery even (although there is no butter in the recipe) and absolutely mouthwatering. It was one of those things that the kids devoured so fast that I did [...]
Sweet and Spicy: Mango Chipotle Shrimp
Months and months ago, I made this shrimp dish. Then I made it again for a dinner party. Then I promptly misplaced the recipe, so I was unable to share it. So, these darned photos have been teasing me all along as I tried and tried to remember what the heck was in the dish. [...]
Lime Crusted Mahi Mahi on Spicy Tomato Puree
For my birthday this year, Shawn bought me a full size food processor. For years, I have used a mini food prep, which I love. But after doing batch after batch of pestos and whatnot to store in winters past, I really wanted a full size one for big jobs … and guess what? I [...]
Eat This: Shrimp in White Wine and Garlic Sauce
A few weeks ago, I made dinner for Will and Paige – something balanced with some meat, veggies, pasta and the like. It was a Will and Paige meal — something simple, but tasty, with a healthy sized serving of pasta. For me, I quickly whipped up some Romano encrusted shrimp (I really need to [...]
Simple Pleasure: The Easy Tuna Salad
That salad was my reward for this week. See, this was one of those weeks. Surely, you know the ones. It jolted to a start at a breakneck speed first thing on Monday. After a relaxing weekend running errands and hanging out with my cousins, I realized I had some work due earliy-ish on Monday. [...]
To Our Health: Basil and Sunflower Tilapia
It’s gray and dismal outside my office window this morning. It feels more like 6 am than 7 am as the clouds hang thick. The grass, which is just starting to show signs of the brilliant hue that we’ll love for three seasons, looks muted and pathetic. This is not the sunny day I was [...]
