I came across an an online food ordering website called Foodpanda. It is an up-and-coming website that operates by delivering food from a wide range of restaurants to homes and/or offices in 11 cities in India, namely Delhi, Gurgaon, Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, etc. As an author of a food blog I can tell you blogs like mine mainly focus on cooking ideas and recipes. The whole idea intere
Hey y’all. These posts have sort of fallen to the way-side because life, work, classes and posts got in the way. BUT! Fear not. They’ve returned. Just don’t call it a comeback.

Who doesn’t love taco soup? It is a family favorite at our house and we are flashing back to my favorite taco soup recipe today.

Good morning and happy Friday. Today I am going to share some photos that I took over the weekend in Palm Beach. This will actually turn into a four-part series. The first installment is these photos and the next three installments will be photos taken at Grassy Waters Preserve in West Palm Beach. I must [...]
Tuna salad sandwiches have always been my favorite, but traditional tuna salad is high in calories from the mayo. This wrap is 240 scrumptious wholesome calories. If you are not a tuna fan, you can easily use canned chicken instead of tuna. You can change this recipe up to include what you like in a tuna salad. I am a plain Jane when it comes to my tuna salad. I like dill pickles, lettuce,
When I was growing up, salad meant greens -usually iceberg lettuce - and salad dressing. Salad was something that was eaten before dinner. It sure wasn't something that was eaten as a meal. Okay, maybe there was the occasional tuna salad. But even though "salad" was in the name, it wasn't something eaten like salad. It was a sandwich filling.Now, salad in my life has broken out of its mold, It

Yippee! It's the weekend so I decided to treat my guys to a little something sweet. A couple of weeks ago I made homemade strawberry jam and still had a little in the fridge. I started thinking of all the different ways I could use it and settled on cookies. Most of us think of jam cookies around Christmas time, but they are so stinking good, I just had to make a batch. &nb

Traditional cole slaw is, for a lack of a better word, very mayonnaise-y. This cole slaw is the complete opposite of that. It is light and has almonds, quinoa, and no mayonnaise. This goes very well with Sloppy Joes {click … Continue reading →

Something sweet and simple for the weekend. A repost from May 2011. Good food doesn't have to be complicated to be tasty! Enjoy!We spent all afternoon today wandering around Tatton Park. What a gorgeous place that is! The gardens were so beautiful and we walked our not so little butts off! (ok . . . hmm . . . MY not so little butt.)When we got home we were starving and so I threw to
We just got back from Jamaica. Our trip was perfection. We stayed in Negril in Bloody Bay near the 7 mile beach. It was beautiful. I’ve done my share of traveling and nothing beats the Caribbean Sea. Negril itself was gorgeous. We stayed at an all-inclusive for the first time and really liked it. The [...]

I missed National Chocolate Chip Day by two days, but couldn’t let these slip by without sharing them with you all! They’re a (very addicting) cookie I’ve had pinned for a long time and since I didn’t have a few of the original ingredients on hand, I used what I had and put my own [...]
I have fond childhood memories of my grandmother making roasted broccoli with a buttery breadcrumb topping. She would bake the broccoli florets in a buttered baking dish until the breadcrumbs formed a crispy layer on top of the vegetables. This was a go-to … Continue reading →
I think everyone has his or her favorite lemon cookie recipe. Well, here's one of mine. This particular recipe is a softer more cake-like cookie. Soft with a nice lemon flavor. These are made with mostly whole-wheat pastry flour, which is a nice light flour and has fiber as well. These are easy to make and really delicious. Hope you give them a try and maybe they will become one of your fa
Hey guys! I am currently in Orlando, FL at Disney World enjoying my pants off (only because I have a dress on!) at Food Blog Forum 2013. I am having more fun than I can even handle, so I thought I would provide you with a treat of someone else blogging for you rather than being silent today. I asked my friend Erin of Texanerin Baking if she would post for me today, and luckily, she didn't run

After making the strawberry BBQ chicken club sandwiches with bacon, avocado and goat cheese I still had plenty of the roasted strawberry BBQ sauce leftover and I knew just what I wanted to make with it, a strawberry BBQ quinoa salad. I have been wanting to try making a BBQ chicken quinoa salad with black beans and corn for a while now but a strawberry BBQ quinoa salad suddenly sounded like a mu
I'm in an ALOHA state of mind. Nope, I'm not going to Hawaii. But Aloha - as it is commonly used - is a greeting to say "hello" and also to mean "goodbye".

All lettuce is not created equal. I’m going to completely ‘out’ my mother as an example, as she represents most lettuce-eaters, including me before having a CSA in a local farm.
