Salt and Pepper Cucumber “Chips”
Summer time is here! So is BBQ time, get together time and SNACKING time! Think about when you go meet with friends for a BBQ. What kinds of snacks are typically available? If you said veggies and fruits, you are a rare one! Not to say chips and other “snacks” aren’t bad, but we always…

Wholy Guacamole
Avocados. They are quite amazing. Even more amazing than avocados, guacamole. Making your own guacamole may seem a little intimidating, however, it’s way more simple than you think!

Fresh Watermelon Salad
Freshhhhhh! My thoughts after having a bite of this delicious mixture of flavors. My co-worker brought a sample of a watermelon salad she had from home, minty+lemony, and it was delicious. So, I created a tweak for it. This salad is perfect for sides at lunch, get togethers and barbeques. I had some today for breakfast…
Avocado Pesto
Presto pesto! I’d been craving pesto lately for some reason. Maybe it’s because I’ve had a basil plant flourishing in my kitchen? Or, because of my brand new food processor wanted to be used? Whatever the reason, I was going to get some! While at the store grabbing some ingredients. I was checking out some…

I came up with this very simple cucumber salad that hits the spot! Have it on the side of a BBQ, with any meal, or simply as a snack…
Thick Cut Crispy Cumin Sweet Potato Fries
Tonight I was stumped on what to make. Thank goodness I bought a huge bag of sweet potatoes the other day to help me with deciding what to make. I kind of threw this recipe together (per usual) and it turned out really damn good (if I don’t say so myself). I ate these on the side of cilantro-lime-quinoa with…
