Hi everyone! I know I have not posted in awhile….life happened and this took a backseat to a demanding role I had at work – which I loved….but I knew I always wanted to get back to sharing the things I love with others. I am sitting here in disbelief that I have had this blog up and …
Savory Zucchini Turkey Meatloaf
Hey there, dear friends! I can’t believe how long it has been since I last posted – life happens, right?! It has been a crazy year. New job, kids in school, trying to balance a healthy lifestyle, being a wife and mama, a coach and working full time is NOT easy. BUT, it is doable! It just takes …
Slow Cooked Southwest Chicken Burrito Bowls
Looking for easy? I have you covered! These Slow Cooked Southwest Chicken Burrito Bowls were our Sunday dinner tonight!! I had to share them with you ASAP! I was at a baby shower for my sweet cousin today and I knew I would get home right before dinner time so I figured instead of rushing around trying to get something …
Egg Roll in a Bowl
Basili (my husband) LOVES Chinese take out – so do I, but after I eat it, I regret it. Besides getting puffy from all of the sodium, my tummy hurts from the MSG and processed ingredients. Tell me I am not the only one?! 🙂 SO, I make my own! Egg roll in a bowl – how fun is that!?! …
Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Oatmeal Cookies

I have tried A LOT (repeat, A LOT) of recipes for no-sugar added cookies or treats and they were all major flops at our house. I was determined …
Carne Asada Tacos

Cauliflower Cheesy Bread
I was tempted to NOT tell my husband what these ‘bread sticks’ were made from until AFTER he tried it, but he caught me cutting up cauliflower and kind of looked at me with a side eye and walked away. I told him to trust me and that if it was terrible, we wouldn’t speak of this again. WELL, let …

Turkey Quinoa Asian-Style Meatballs
A few Asian inspired dishes have been happening in our home this week and they have been delicious! We used to love grabbing take out, but afterwards, my stomach would be super upset, in knots and just not a whole lot of fun. There is a TON of sodium and MSG that does not mesh well with my body and …
Mexican Chicken Stir Fry Skillet
I was so very pleasantly surprised with this dish – talk about the flavor of freshness! I always LOVE a dinner that uses zero of my yellow containers – since I only get 2 each day! (For those of you not following the container system, the yellow containers are starchy foods like bread, potatoes and rice!) This Mexican Chicken Stir …
