Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus with a Poached Egg

I love how versatile asparagus is. It’s great with steak, in salads, steamed, grilled, and especially great wrapped in bacon or prosciutto and served for breakfast. I’ve been trying to eat more ‘Whole 30’ approved meals lately

Skinny shrimp scampi

Shrimp scampi is oh so easy and delicious. Especially this skinny or healthified version. I wish I could make this Whole 30 approved, but I just can’t skip on the wine. The best part about cooking with wine? It’s already open, so you may

Cereal for breakfast is oh so easy and delicious. I was a major cereal killer in my earlier years and used to eat bowls for breakfast (and dinner) on the reg. A big bowl of Rice Krispies, topped with banana slices, was my jam. Unfortunately, cereal

Zoodles and Meatballs

Few edibles make me as happy as pasta. Especially the childhood classic, spaghetti and meatballs. Spaghetti and meatballs were my jam growing up. My grandfather nicknamed me ‘Pig Pen’ when I was a toddler because I would eat my spaghetti

Fall salad

I really don’t understand how brussel sprouts got such a bad rep. Whoever started the idea that brussels are gross has taste buds I don’t trust. Or maybe they were served by someone who didn’t know how to cook. These days, I can’t

Chili Recipe

It’s time to get heated. As the temperatures drop, I think a great way to warm up is with a big bowl of chili. Sharing my recipe is sort of giving you the gold. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying “Who wants to buy the cow if the

Organic Chicken Coconut Curry

I had an organic chicken coconut curry at a restaurant in Rio that was to die for. I loved the restaurant so much that I went back the next time I visited Rio. Everything was so healthy, fresh, unique, and delicious. Before I finished my dish (and

Orange Honey Chicken Recipe

I love Chinese food. Curling up on the couch with chopsticks in hand in front of the television while eating an effortless dinner is my idea of bliss at the end of an extra long day. Unfortunately, Chinese food doesn’t always agree with me and

Caprese Pasta Salad Recipe

I love cheese. I love pasta. I really love pasta with cheese. I especially love pasta with cheese when I convince myself that it’s good for me because it has the word ‘salad’ in it. That’s the key here folks: adding spinach
