Healthier Shrimp & Grits
Shrimp & Grits are a classic Southern Dish that I think everyone loves (I Know I do!) But they are not exactly on the healthier side of things especially with all the butter, heavy cream, and gravy. I was looking for other healthier recipes for shrimp when I came across this recipe by Sanoli of The…
Healthier Chicken Nuggets
Chicken Nuggets are a classic family food item, well in my opinion. They have always been easy to take out of the freezer and fry them or even heat them up in the microwave, & they are so simple to make, But OMG they are not on the list of healthy foods at all. So…
Guilt Free Peanut Butter Cookies
As I’ve mentioned before, I love Peanut Butter cookie, well I LOVE sweets. Since becoming a healthier eater, and cutting sweets & sodas out of my diet (along with a whole new plan, later to be posted) I haven’t craved sweets like I did before. Every now and then I do WANT something sweet. This…
Healthy Pizza
I LOVEEEEEE Pizza, I honestly cant express how much I love pizza! When I started eating healthier, I knew that this was one food that would be my unhealthy splurge. I knew I could change up some of the ingredients to make it a little healthier (whole grain, thin crust, more veggies etc.) but I…
Peel Garlic Quick
I had heard that there were several “easy” and “quick” ways to peel Garlic but sadly none of them worked for me, until this tip came along & BAM OMG it worked! I was so happy because I despise peeling garlic with my fingers (its like the smell takes forever to go away) and it…
Stuffed Peppers
Mexican dishes are a favorite of my best friend Jerome, & these stuffed peppers are a hit with the both of us. They are so good, healthy, and very easy to make. Since we started our journey to get fit and healthier, We’ve tried to cut eating out as often as we can & Mexican…
Healthy Pinwheels
I talked about pinwheels before and how easy they are to make, especially if you need a quick & easy party food, heres a healthier
Homemade Ranch
I LOVE Ranch Dressing. Hands down its the most versatile dressing that I think we use on everything other than salads. I wanted to make a Ranch Dressing that was healthier and not already made “why not make it simple and make it at home” (updated 7-15-14, Thanks to everyone who pointed this out, it…
Healthy Nacho Dip
Last year I made the quick & easy Rotel Dip thats great for get togethers and game season. Its another one of our favorites and its so easy to make. Going on our journey to becoming healthier alot of stuff we removed from our diet. The Rotel Dip was one, and we were talking about…
Healthy Chicken Tacos
Tacos have always been a classic favorite to make & just because your dieting or eating healthier doesnt mean that you should eliminate them from your menu. You can change up this dish…
Healthy Cookies
Healthy isn’t a word thats been in my vocabulary for a long time. I have recently been changing my way of eating and lifestyle in the kitchen. Food has always been a comfort for me, but my health was something that I had to get in check. Eating healthy doesn’t always have to taste as…
Easy Throw Pillows
Recently after redecorating my bedroom, I wanted a couple more pillows but wasn’t sure what I really wanted that would go with my colors. Then I remembered I had some fabric left from the curtains I made for my office (Here is that Post) And I had some old throw pillows that was the perfect…
