We’ve made this dish so often that frankly I’ve taken for granted how good it is. Now that school is back in session the talk around the office has changed from backyard BBQ’s and poolside picnics to family friendly weeknight meals. These Turkey Meatballs with Mushroom Gravy are simple and delicious. Continue reading »

Turkey & Sweet Potato Southwest Chili.
My motivation for this dish was to deliver a flavor packed hearty chili (you know…the kind your manly man will eat) but with less calories. Because lets face it, most of us don’t need the extra calories and are perfectly happy as long as we’re satisfied. This chili is definitely satisfying. Continue reading »

Loaded Stuffed Cabbage Rolls.
As in…don’t hold back on the veggies. This was a fabulous way to work through the last few fresh veggies that needed to be eaten before it was back to the Farmers Market on Wednesday. This included a gorgeous head of cabbage that I was persuaded to buy (I just love farmers). Continue reading »

Sometimes I crave Spaghetti & Meatballs. I’m not really a big ‘craver’…if that is a word, except Chocolate cravings….those happen most days at either 3 pm or and 9 pm.
It’s Day #2 of Eat Out of the Fridge/Pantry Week. As I walked out the door it occurred to me – should I thaw Chicken or Ground Turkey? Turkey it was and meatballs it became. Continue reading »

I have no excuse for not sharing this recipe with you before now. Our close friends and family know that Turkey Burgers with Sweet Potato Fries had always been a signature meal for us. However, somewhere around the time I got caught up in the What’s for Dinner craze (trying different recipes almost every night), our old faithful Turkey Burger got limited play time. It took sharing them at the office last week for me to realize how much I’ve missed them. And considering they are still being raved about, it’s time to give up the secret recipe. Continue reading »

These beautiful mini-Sweet Peppers were smiling at me as I strolled through the produce isle. How could I resist their vibrant ‘happy’ colors? When it’s January, and the tornado sirens are echoing in the distance and torrential rains are beating on the window, a little ray of sunshine for dinner seemed just right. So we kicked up our recipe with a little spice and created Southwest Stuffed mini-Sweet Peppers {with Quinoa & Spicy Turkey Sausage}. Continue reading »

The week following Thanksgiving was epic in terms of leftovers. The pantry doors were bulging like the doors on a pre-teen girl’s closet. The fridge was packed full of 1/2 used ingredients begging for a purpose. And fortunately for us, every food blogger I follow was offering up solutions. This Mexican Casserole was inspired by this beautiful recipe I found on From Away. Continue reading »
