Quinoa Enchilada Casserole
I am not what you would call super health conscious, but I do care about what I am putting into my family's body. Because of this I try to exercise at least one meatless meal a week. It's usually on Monday, and I call it Meatless Monday. However, when you are not used to cooking vegetari…

Tequila Lime Chicken
I love chicken.
I would go so far as to call it the tofu of meats! I say that because, on it's own, it doesn't have a lot of flavor, but when you season it just right, OMG! One of my favorite ways to prepare chicken is with my tequila lime marinade. It is PACKED full of flavor, super sim…

Grand Rapids Wet Burritos
My husband grew up in Grand Rapids Michigan, and for as long as we have been married (15 years next week!) he has talked about a gal named Maria, and the Wet Burritos she made at the Mexican Restaurant he and his family frequently visited. I assumed that a wet burrito was a burrito with salsa on …
Winter Salsa
Even though I am not Mexican, I love celebrating Cinco de Mayo. Basically it's because it gives me the freedom to eat as much Mexican food as I want! But let's be honest, does one REALLY need a reason to eat Mexican? No, I think not. *lol*
