Here’s How to Handle a Big Mac Attack!
Healthy eating police stand down.
We all have our guilty pleasures and while it’s been years since I’ve ordered a McDonald’s Big Mac, the saucy beefy cheesy classic lingers in my mind.
The way I see it is when the attack happens you have two choices. You can either drive to the closest McDonald’s OR you can make this double decker delight at home!
I vote for homemade all day – every day!

I love this Mediterranean Chopped Salad because you can make a giant bowl and eat on it for days!
Or in our case you can make it two days in a row because it’s that good!!
We’re definitely on a salad kick right now and I’m loving it.
And my body is pretty stoked too!

That’s what we’re doing, but in your kitchen, no shoes or shirts required.

Southwest Salmon Salad Therapy. Right here.
There are those days, moments, situations when you just need to take your mind somewhere else. For me that typically means I’ll wind up in the kitchen. Slicing, fine dicing, fresh bright flavors and lots of beautiful bowls.

I made this Autumn Thyme Wedge Salad a couple weeks ago and have been dying to share it with you. It has so many wonderful seasonal flavors that it sings of Autumn Thyme. The star of the salad were the Warm Goat Cheese Fritters. They were so good they deserved their own recipe post (and so delayed the introduction of our newest wedge salad recipe).

This salad. This Fattoush Salad is flavor love.
I was working hard to use ingredients already on hand. I may be a bit out of control. Pantry and freezer doors are…busting. So I went on offense and typed pita, lettuce, mint, tomato into my search engine field.
Kabam!!! Pow!! Fattoush!

This might be my most favorite salad EVER. I’m sometimes reminded not to make statements that can’t stand the test of thyme. If you deliver me a Tipico Power Bowl {with Grilled Chicken} 5 days a week, I’m certain I will sing your praises.
