Sausage Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Now that the weather is starting to get nicer, I’m really getting excited about the Farmer’s Market.  Every Wednesday and Saturday morning in Springfield we have a wonderful Farmer’s Market downtown with a multitude of stands offering every kind of fresh produce you could ever dream of.  We love going to the Farmer’s Market, and […]

Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup

I know it’s almost spring, so our time for soup is really winding down, but I think this soup recipe is perfect for this time of year.  It’s light, brothy, full of flavor, and very refreshing with the hint of lemon and fresh grassy parsley, yet definitely filling enough to be a meal.   I […]

Italian Wedding Soup

As spring approaches, we are nearing the end of soup season.  I think I still have a little time to squeeze in a couple more recipes though, because it’s not too warm yet.  Pretty soon it will be grilling time! This is a pretty light and healthful soup with tons of flavor.  It has tiny […]

Easy Weeknight Meal: Copycat PF Chang Lettuce Wraps

I’ve seen several recipes for these on Pinterest, and even though they looked good, I resisted initially because it called for a couple of ingredients I didn’t have.  Well one of my friends at work has made them several times now, and I tasted hers one day and they were so good.  So I decided […]

Decadent Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies. Did I Mention They’re Skinny?

If you’ve been around my blog before, you are familiar with my unabashed love for chocolate and peanut butter.  It’s my go-to combination for sweets, and I’ve even figured out to enjoy them for healthy snacks and breakfast.  When I saw this recipe on Pinterest originally, I knew I had to try it…I just didn’t […]

Teriyaki Dijon Glazed Salmon

This is one of those “recipes” that I feel bad even calling a recipe because it’s so easy.  See, I even put it in quotations.  This is just a simple, go-to recipe for any night of the week.  It is so delicious every time. I usually use fresh salmon with this because I find it doesn’t […]

Skinny Crock Pot Chicken Enchilada Soup

I think it’s officially soup season.  This is quite possibly – no, definitely –  my new favorite crock pot soup.  I found it on Skinnytaste, and it was so easy and extremely scrumptious.  And light!  I love Mexican food, so I might be a bit biased, but we shared this with some friends, and they […]

Peanut Butter Banana Surprise II

Are you still as full from Thanksgiving as I am?  I mean, we had four Thanksgiving meals in three days.  That’s gotta be some kind of record.  I don’t imagine you want to read about some big meal right now, so I figured I’d post something that’s kind of healthy and light.  This is a […]

Cheddar Rosemary Corn Muffins

I saw a recipe for Cheddar Rosemary Corn Muffins the other day, but it was from scratch…like using corn meal, which I didn’t have.  I did have a corn muffin mix, though, so I decided to wing it because the combination of cheddar and rosemary intrigued me.  You know how sometimes, you have a vision […]

Savory Apple Bacon Sweet Potatoes

It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away!  Surely I’m not the only one who has started thinking about what I’m going to take to our family get-togethers.  I’ve mentioned before how much I love sweet potatoes.  Don’t get me wrong – I love the sweet, buttery, brown sugary, pecan topped sweet […]
