Phew, I’ve been hoarding quite the stash of food photos from the last few days, so brace yourself. Friday Let’s begin with Friday, when the hub and I decided to redeem one of our latest Real Deal coupons. I am becoming sliiiightly obsessed with this whole Groupon-movement!

My First Green Monster
Hey y’all. Haven’t posted in a couple days, but with good reason. My dinners the last two nights were recipe repeats, and didn’t want to bore you by double-posting them! So Tuesday night I made White Bean & Avocado Wraps again. Remember these, made during my recent Vegetarian Week? I love this recipe! And Wednesday … Continue reading »
Mexican Meatloaf and Brown Rice with Veggies and Green Chilies. And Cashew Cookies!

Another Beefy Weekend

To serve, stir in half-and-half if desired, and garnish with cheddar (this was my own addition). This Recipe is from EatingWell. Broccoli Soup Rating: 6.5/10 Up next… A vegetarian recipe from Aarti … Continue reading »
Greek Avgolemono Soup Fail
Hey y’all. Today I did a ton of cooking! Can you believe I made THREE soups!? Two are currently residing in my fridge for consumption later this week, while the third was prepared for dinner tonight. Unfortunately it wasn’t the greatest. I had a mini internal spaz-out at the grocery store when I couldn’t find … Continue reading »
Vegetarian Week – Day #7: Spinach Lasagna at Pizza House
Saturday was Day 7 of my self-proclaimed ‘Vegetarian Week.’ It was also ‘date night’ for me and the huz, so I printed out my latest Groupon purchase, highly-discounted tickets to the School of Music, Theatre & Dance’s Collage Concert. Before the show, the hub and I went to Pizza House for din-din. Started things out … Continue reading »
