This week's recipe is a fruit-based dessert, that is really easy to make. I love fruit-based desserts and non-fruit-based desserts. I happen to like more fruit-based desserts when it gets hot outside, when chocolate, peanut butter and caramel feel a bit too heavy. This recipe comes from Southern Living for Cakey Strawberry Cobbler. A cobbler [...]
(Forgive me for the generic picture this week. The nephews had me so busy that I forgot to take pictures. I'm sure you can imagine what your standard chili looks like. Just more orange.) Everyone should have a basic chili recipe. It's one of those recipes that you can pull out and feed a crowd [...]
Right now I am back to cleaning cluttered spaces. We have two sheds that got VERY cluttered before by in-laws moved out. Since this house is Tony's childhood home, cleaning out this part will be hard for him. Since his Dad passed away, there are many memories in the stuff. This leads to keeping too [...]

You probably saw them eat it a long time ago and associated it with boring health food. I'm here to tell you to give it a second chance. Why? Because it is actually inexpensive, great protein, [...]
If you want to know what recipe I repeat most often, it's lentils, rice and cheese. This recipe never lets me down. It's easy to make, hits your macros and is VERY filling for a low calorie count. I make this when I am not feeling creative, or in this case, not able to eat [...]
Looking through my pile of recipes, this one caught my attention. What's not to love about a soup with beef, brown rice and mushrooms? The original recipe from Very Well uses some high sodium ingredients like canned mushrooms and reduced sodium beef broth. Yep, reduced sodium beef broth is still too much sodium for a [...]
I tried this out a couple of years ago just for fun and came out with the most awesome tasting turkey you'll ever eat. No, I'm not kidding. Do you ever feel like a perfectly cooked turkey is out of reach? Not so with this method. I'm sure you have tried every method on the [...]
