I didn't exactly grow up in the south, but I know a thing or two about ranch dressing. In the south, people put ranch on everything. Pizza,wings, and if you're really lucky, a vegetable. For some people, eating dips makes the task of eating vegetables that much better. I get that. A plate full of … Continue reading Garlic Dill Greek Yogurt Dip
Sesame Seared Tuna along with a medley of sauteed vegetables lay on a bed of fresh zucchini noodles, suspended in a gochujang-soy broth. A zoodle bowl as comforting as it is flavorful. I have a bit of an obsession with Seared Tuna at the moment. Maybe I always have. This was the first fish … Continue reading Seared Tuna Asian Zoodle Bowl

And while there are a few brands available in the grocery store today, hummus is so insanely easy that there's actually no excuse to not make it yourself.

Shrimp is honestly packed with protein, especially considering its negligible fat and calorie content. I loooove perfectly cooked shrimp- tender but not too firm (Don't overcook seafood- cooking 101). The best shrimp I've ever … Continue reading Shrimp Stuffed Avocado
This soup was a total accident. And also one of the greatest tasting meals I've made in a long time. It's so funny how that works, sometimes. You have this vision in your head of what you want it to taste/smell/look like, and then you realize that just is not going to happen. Or maybe … Continue reading Mexican Lentil Chili

I mentioned my mini-revelation in my last post, but I'll go over it briefly to further illustrate my point. So my family (Mom and Step-dad) have 14 chickens. We live 5 minutes away from … Continue reading I’ve stopped cooking meat, but I’m not a Vegetarian
Study snack or night time munchie, this yogurt bowl satisfies an empty stomach and a sweet tooth. To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed in myself.
