One problem I’ve found with being vegetarian- sometimes your meals get a tad bit monotonous. Usually with tacos I just fill them with beans- but I am getting a bit sick of beans! So, knowing that my taco-loving daughter was going to ask for some of her favorite food soon, I racked my brain for … More Avocado Tacos
I love summer for the fact that my mornings are not rushed. Usually, during the school year, I have very regimented, very full mornings. In the summer- I can actually enjoy the start of the day! I had made Magnolia Table’s ricotta pancakes before, and I remember liking them. But, I did not remember liking … More Ricotta Pancakes
Happy Friday! Since I am embarking on my big European adventure- here are some of my favorite travel finds!!! Since I travel with a bunch of kids with a bunch of different problems- I always pack a bunch of meds to help solve anything that comes up. I found this pill case on Amazon- it’s … More TGIF- fun finds
One thing I love about summer are the leisurely mornings. Usually- mornings are a huge rush but in summer it’s so much more laid back. I have been starting the days with a nice 2 mile dog walk (about all Oscar can handle!) and then breakfast. My go to breakfast as of late has been … More TGIF- fun finds
Who doesn’t love a good doughnut? I’m not even a lover of sweet things, but put a good doughnut in front of me… yeah!

I hope you all had a restful and meaningful Memorial Day Weekend! I was going to have this incredible post about our awesome camping experience in Lake Arrowhead this weekend – but, let’s just say this isn’t that post. We had a little change of plans along the way…. Both Greg and I had heard … More Memorial Day (change of plans)
I am learning to love the lentils. Honestly,I only had tried one lentil dish – ever- before becoming vegetarian . But now, times have changed! I have learned through my vegetarian adventures that the lentil is amazing versatile. It gives you a hearty meat-like texture but (duh!) without the meat! So, when I stumbled upon … More Lentil Ragu
A good fish taco is hard to pass up. The fried fish, the crunchy cabbage, and – of course- the sauce! I find that the sauce is what makes the taco. If the creamy goodness isn’t, well, good, it can ruin the whole fish taco experience! I wanted to recreate my panko crusted fish sticks … More Baja Sauce (for fish tacos)
I am always on the lookout for an easy make ahead lunch that I can prep on the weekend and enjoy all week. Oh, and it has to taste good. Something that I actually want to eat! Looking through Tiffani Thiessen’s, Pull Up a Chair, I found the unicorn- a healthy, make ahead, delicious sounding … More Quinoa Salad for Lunch
Trying to keep my dinners new and fresh, I recently went back into some of my old cookbooks (that whole sentence was a bit of an oxymoron – right?) and discovered some recipes that I haven’t tried in awhile. Hence – Panko-Crusted Fish Sticks! When we were first married, I was a terrible, horrible, no-good … More Baked Fish & Chips
