I'm happy this week is a normal week. It's nice to get back into my routine. Until, of course, I travel again. I spent some time over Memorial Day looking around for some interesting recipes. I found one from Sweet Greens Vegan. It seems when I look for new recipes, the same few get recycled. [...]
I finally have enough room for a new savory dish. This week I'm going back to something simple with tried and true recipe: rice and beans. If I want to keep it simple and nutritious, I do this. I'm keeping it simple because we got back from our trip and I don't want to be [...]
This is a repost of a post from the very beginning. I am traveling and will post new content next week. There are lots of great recipes out there. You can find them all over the Internet. You probably also have a ton of cookbooks at home. When you start eating healthier, does that mean [...]
I swear getting older sucks. Not that I'm concerned about being someone I was twenty years ago, but I don't want to relegate myself to giving up. I gained around fifteen pounds over the last year from a combination of stress, hormones and new medication. I'm not happy about it. Now that I am in [...]
I am ALWAYS looking for new recipes. However, I love it even more if I discover a new way to obtain them. As you probably know by now, I love America's Test Kitchen. Since Christopher Kimball left the show a while back, I never really followed him. That is until now. If you never heard [...]
I just can't help myself with beans and rice. We love it so much in our house that when I find a new way to do it, I jump right on it. This particular recipe for Sekihan is a Japanese recipe for rice and beans. The beans are adzuki beans which are a small red [...]
Another week working part time at home. I think without the technology we have today, it would be much harder to work at home. I use both Microsoft Teams and Slack to work on different projects. Both allow me to keep in touch with my colleagues easily. VPN technology has improved too. I don't need [...]
This started out as a recipe that caught my eye while scrolling through Facebook. Typically when a recipe uses the word "crack" in the title, it means that it is deliciously addictive. So when I came across a recipe for Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Crack Chicken from Plain Chicken, I had to stop and take [...]
Ok. Now most of you have made this type of recipe. Ground beef with a couple of cans of condensed soup. This is very convenient, especially for busy people. I've made many myself when I was younger. However, if you are watching your health, it can be a nutritional nightmare. Condensed soup contains a lot [...]
The two main types of ingredients that contain potassium are potatoes and beans. So what can you make with both? Chili of course. I have below a recipe for a two bean and sweet potato chili that has a whopping 511mg of potassium per serving. That helps you get to the amount you need for [...]
