Lunch is boring. If I can avoid it, I will. Usually, I load up on coffee for breakfast, then a second cup, and then lunch ends up being something for breakfast. Like an egg and cheese sandwich or oatmeal. The one nuisance about working from home now is having to figure out lunch for two of us. I’d be good with the same peanut butter and jelly sandwich, apple, and…
In our house, we’re down for tacos wherever, whenever. Taco Monday, Taco Tuesday, Taco Wednesday, Taco any day! We’ve made fish, chicken, vegetables, you name it. On our journey to change up our tacos, we fried up some chicken and drizzled a luscious garlic ranch sauce all over them. They were a hit. We even just purchased a new book, Dragons Love Tacos, for Liam. It’s now one of my favorite books…
My aunt Helen makes THE BEST egg rolls. Seriously. From the Philippines, she brought over a ridiculously tasty recipe. While she won’t give me the recipe (just yet), I’m continuously trying to figure it out every time I take a bite. A few winters ago, we made shrimp rolls for my family when they came to visit during their annual Christmas trip to NYC. Egg and spring rolls are a must side dish…
Having a picnic doesn’t need to be fancy, but switching up your bread or what you put on your sandwich can make it seem fancy. We’ve been on an avocado kick lately – maybe due to the impending shortage? We’ve been using it in all of our recent salads, having taco nights more frequently, and used it on sandwiches. Avocado, while high in calories, is a power food. It’s incredibly…
Good morning! After coming home from the gym the other morning, Fatima and I wanted something to eat that would not kill the workout we just came back from, and something other than oatmeal or a veggie-fruit shake. We sifted through our site and landed on our Egg Stuffed Avocado and our Hummus and Guacamole Toast. So we tried to combine the two and came up with this Mexican Breakfast…
Adding avocado to pretty much anything makes it better. Salad, sandwiches, wraps, appetizers. But I’m a sucker for guacamole. A bowl of some really good, creamy guacamole and some chips could last me all day. So we made a chicken guacamole sandwich and it was delicious. We took our Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich that we made last week, and added guacamole. It was so hot out, we wanted something cold,…
These aren’t SpongeBob’s krabby patties. These are 100% delicious crab cakes from the bottom of the sea. My mom and I were in a mood for some good seafood. She loves crab cakes, but has not had any luck with recipes she’s come across. If you’re looking for some good southern comfort food, you can always count on Paula Deen to provide a delicious recipe. We searched the net to…
We modified our cucumber salmon topping for another delicious seafood dish and discovered it would be great for just about anything! The fresh avocado citrus topping will add flair to your food and excite your taste buds. With spring in the air and summer on the horizon, this topping would make a great side for your outdoor gatherings.…
This is an easy treat to make your guests as a side at breakfast or lunch. The green avocado and red tomato creamy mixture, give a touch of holiday cheer and the warm english muffin will give you some warmth on those cold winter mornings. Not to mention avocados are a great source of 20 nutrients! And that hummus at the bottom is a great source of fiber!…
