I have seen many social media posts lately that are filled with ooey goey chocolate desserts and are filled with all the things I can’t eat. I am gluten-free and dairy-free, which makes desserts a little difficult for me. Plus, I would rather fill my body with something nutritious even though I love sweets. This…
Dijon Lemon Glazed Salmon
Salmon is by far my favorite fish. I love it in so many ways… as sashimi, smoked, tartare, grilled, baked, poached and even canned. I am always looking for new ways to make it and recently I ate it in an Italian restaurant where it was dijon glazed. I was determined to recreate the recipe…

Spinach & Sausage Egg White Bake
My husband and I just came back from our honeymoon to Greece. While away, we consumed at at least 2 large blocks of feta cheese per day. We ate so much of it that I came to think of it as part of my everyday meal and craved it when we did not have it….

Often, people think healthy means “less tasty.” There are so many ways to add flavor and replace unhealthy ingredients with nutritious ones that taste good!
