Thin crust pizza with a pesto sauce topped with broccoli, artichokes, and feta for a healthy but delicious green pizza! – – I’m a huge fan of pizza! Melty cheese on carbs? I was sold at cheese! Now throw some healthy and tasty veggies and some of that good ‘ol cheese and you’ve got yourself a pretty tasty meal! It does take some work, but I think it is really worth it in the end. This pizza is light and flavorful and even has veggies so I feel half…

A savory, healthful crustless quiche, packed with veggies and eggs, and sacrificing none of the flavor! – – It’s time. We’ve set a date for our wedding, and while October 2018 is over a year away, I really need to do better about my eating habits. I was doing pretty good there for a while with recipes like vegetarian samosa burritos (tcc recipe), and rainbow vegetable pad thai (tcc recipe), but I’ve been pretty lax the past few months with the stress and business of buying a house and traveling up to NJ to look at wedding venues in addition to normal life. So this was an attempt to…

Happy Fourth of July! I know you all will probably be spammed by social media with red, white, and blue galore! So here’s some green to mix it up! =D I wanted to share this because it’s an easy recipe to make for company! If you prep the ingredients before cooking and then just add to a pot to simmer away, it works quite nicely. Let me know if you try this method! I am in Chicago for a family vacation until Wednesday, so I wanted to make sure I shared a recipe at least and didn’t leave you all hanging.…

So today was game day! D&D Sunday as they usually happen to be, and instead of going all out to make all of the food, we did a potluck! It was wonderful–worked out perfectly. Zack made jalapeno poppers, Matt made quiche, and Dustin brought brownies! Tyler got away with nothing because he’s dating me, and I provided this awesome mediterranean dip! Plus he’s the DM so he has more work to do than the rest of us when it comes to preparing for D&D. This mediterranean dip recipe stems from Dara’s Healthy Mediterranean 7 Layer Dip over at Cookin’ Canuck, with a…

These Mediterranean pinwheels are a perfect, EASY appetizer. This is one of our go-to’s because T likes them, and I like them, and he’s less likely to eat half the cheese and salami before they go in the oven. Though maybe more likely to eat half of them coming out of the oven. Plus there’s the added benefit of a short grocery list. There are only 6 ingredients (I’d really say 5…if you don’t have olive oil, you’re doing the kitchen wrong), and all the steps are simple. It’s even better to get some help, especially if you’re making these…

This is a nice, clean, vegetarian recipe! It’s super easy to make, and would also make a great side, although we ate it as the main dish tonight. It is definitely a little on the light side for a main meal, but was still super tasty. It’s got a variety of vegetables and a nice Mediterranean flair. I ended up using yellow onions though the original recipe by Taylor over at food faith fitness used red onions. I imagine that red onions would be a little bit better because they’re less potent, and give an extra pop of color. But if you chop the…
