I like to make meals from scratch, but let’s face it, for most of us juggling all the things (yes, ALL lol) life does not (always) leave us with enough time to stand in the kitchen every day and create such master pieces 😉 Add virtual school and, on Thursday evenings, Hockey nights for meContinue reading “Mozzarella Pesto Pizza”

Crispy Tofu on Asian Inspired Salad
The air fryer, one of my most used appliances in a normal week (meaning, when I am not working on a themed recipe week like this one!). I use it for almost everything… better yet; I have two of them! We upgraded to an XL awhile ago but kept the smaller one… and it’s superContinue reading “Crispy Tofu on Asian Inspired Salad”
Chile Relleno Soup
Happy Fall y’all! It’s officially of fall and fall always makes me crave hearty soups. What’s better than a big bowl of soup to warm your belly now that the nights are getting colder and darker?

Cauliflower Rice with Mushrooms and Spinach
Welcome to our first theme week! This recipe is the first one of 5 days of vegetarian meals keto style 🙂 Cauliflower rice; it’s a super popular low carb rice replacement and it has taken the world in storm over the past few years.

Jalapeno Cheddar Salmon Burgers
This burger was definitely the STAR on this week’s menu! I have been dying to try a recipe from one of my favorite online cooking personalities @Fitmencook and I am happy I finally got around to it.

Just know that the stats I posted below will be accurate when your sausage is low in carbs. The tip is toContinue reading “Bacon, Sausage, and Brussel Sprouts”
Fresh Raspberry Muffins
My kids love raspberries so I have them always on hand, but I also struggle with keeping them fresh. Now, you would say, why don’t you just buy less then? You see, on weeks where I don’t buy enough, they want extra, and on weeks I buy a lot, they forget about them. I don’tContinue reading “Fresh Raspberry Muffins”
Mini Lemon Cheesecake Cups

Pumpkin Vanilla Shake
This one tastes like dessert, and can be eaten like desert with one little tweak, but I made it for breakfast this morning and it was super satisfying. I like having shakes for breakfast; they’re easy and fast to prepare, they are easily bulked up when you wake up hungry, and you can put yourContinue reading “Pumpkin Vanilla Shake”
Roasted Cauliflower
I sometimes struggle to keep my sides interesting… On busy days I tend to gravitate to veggies as they are… so I steam or stir fry most of them and add some salt, pepper and olive oil and voila, veggies! I do think sometimes that’s a bit boring though and I notice that I amContinue reading “Roasted Cauliflower”
