Thai Curry Turkey Burgers

  Turkey burgers are hit or miss. Let’s be honest, most of the time they come out super dry and packed full of no flavor what-so-ever. The key to making a great turkey burger is pumping it full of...

Rustic Peach Tart

  Peaches were 49 cents a pound at Sprouts. As a result, I had to do something with peaches. They are NEVER that cheap. I almost didn’t believe it. Almost. We are getting into that prime peach time...

Buffalo Turkey Meatball Sliders with Celery Salad

  Ok so maybe it’s not 100% the healthiest version of buffalo chicken wings, but the attempt was totally there. It’s actually kind of difficult to get a “healthy” buffalo sauce, especially when there...

Chicken and Fresh Veggie Omelette

  We don’t do omelettes very often around here, and I think the main reason is because we don’t do breakfast as much as I would like to. We of course do breakfast for dinner quite a bit, but this...

Blueberry Lemonade Frozen Yogurt Ice Pops

  Mmmmmmm…Ice Pops…Just the sound of “ice pop” gets my heart-a-racing. I’m such a baby when it comes to the darn things. I’ll only buy two off the shelf products out there…Fruttare and Dreyer’s...

Cannoli Cream Dip – Tailgating Recipes Version 1 .0

  So I decided to hit 2 birds with 1 stone with this recipe. Per my sister’s request (she’s visiting by the way), cannolis were on the menu. However, I don’t believe cannolis go very well with my theme...
