Here’s a video today that comes from Nicole of Pure Bliss Eats and Making Good Choices. In this video she shares her cauliflower pizza crust recipe. It looks simple and tasty too. I really need to work on my food choices (that is another blog post lol). I have been researching and pinning some ideas and want to go through a few books I have as well. The whole goal here though is for the … [Read more...]
I’ve got one more grilled chicken recipe to share with you from the series that I did with Tablespoon.com, and I think I’ve saved the best one for last. This is an overstuffed grilled chicken breast with tons of Greek Flavors. I used feta, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, onion, garlic and spices to stuff these big beautiful grilled chicken breasts. These are big enough to split in half for … [Read more...]
It’s good to be home and working out in the home gym again although I’m pretty proud of myself for sticking with the hotel workouts while I was traveling. So here are my workouts for the week. Decent but not as good as I would have liked. I will try harder this week. I’m looking at possibly doing double time in March meaning I would do 3 to 5 days of morning and evening workouts. … [Read more...]
Thanks to Lynn at Traveling Low Carb and Lynn Terry TV, we have a video from one of our hotel fitness center workouts last week. As you know, she challenged me to do some form of exercise every day in February and we discuss a bit about it in the video. The Marriott Century Center in Atlanta has a nice fitness center but not all of my workouts were done in there. Some were done in the … [Read more...]
I’ve got another fun idea today to dress up ordinary grilled chicken. This chicken breast is seasoned with lots of flavorful spices (basically the same ones you would have in taco seasoning) and topped with a fresh black bean salsa. The salsa is also really good on it’s own. I added defrosted corn, fresh chopped tomato, onion and cilantro to a can of rinsed and drained black beans. Be … [Read more...]

It’s strawberry season in Florida! We’ve been eating them everyday, a ton of them. This is a quick and easy after school treat I made yesterday for my son and I. You can find this strawberry banana milkshake at Babble’s Family Kitchen. Feed enhanced by Better Feed from Ozh … [Read more...]
Citrus flavors always remind me of spring, so I’ve been adding citrus, and especially lemon flavors, to just about everything I’ve been making lately. This is one of my newest creations, a lemon flavored monkey bread. I made this with Pillsbury® Grands!® biscuits. It was a fun project to do with my son. He helped me decorate it with a lemon glaze made from fresh lemon juice and … [Read more...]
This post brought to you by Avocados from Mexico. All opinions are 100% mine. I’ve been head over heals about fried avocados after discovering them some time last year on some of my favorite food blogs. We love avocados in my family, so frying up one of our favorite treats came natural. I knew the next logical step for my fried avocado slices would be to put them into a soft taco. I have … [Read more...]
This popular Malaysia treat on a stick is something I’ve been wanting to make for a long time. Since I’ve been grilling lots of chicken over the past month, I decided to try out some grilled chicken satays too. This recipe uses a quick acting marinade that adds a ton of flavor to the chicken. Instead of using my outdoor grill to cook these, I used an indoor counter top eclectic … [Read more...]
