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. Continue reading »

Fish Taco Bowls.
I just adore complete meals served in a bowl. For breakfast, lunch or dinner. And I don’t discriminate against ingredients based on the time of day. As long as they are fresh and flavorful…I’m a happy girl. Continue reading »

I woke up today, recognizing I was feeling really good in my pj’s and realizing my fridge had a mixed bag of unused (although thoughtfully selected) ingredients.

Never left the house ergo never entered a grocery store = Winning!! And yes, I’ve snapped out of it. Continue reading »
