Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes
Oh hello, sweet potatoes. I am always down for some sweet potatoes and especially these!! Sweet Potatoes = Yummy There is just something so yummy about sweet potatoes. I love them baked, roasted, alone, stuffed (like this BBQ stuffed version), in salads, in breakfast hash, as a side, as the main… ANYWAY really. One of my favorite recipes for sweet potatoes are these Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes. They are not only delicious but also super easy. Roasted and So Good! If I am not eating a whole sweet potato or mashed ones, I roast them. I roast them for several reasons. First, I love how it intensifies the flavor of…

Lemon Parmesan Skillet Chicken & Cauliflower Rice
Happy Tuesday. This Lemon Parmesan Skillet Chicken & Cauliflower rice is the perfect quick fix dinner for the busiest of weeks. I don’t know about your week but it has already been a crazy, crazy week in my world and this one pan dinner is definitely on my menu this week. PS… It is also very KETO friendly with only 5 net Carbs per serving. It’s all about the coating! This dish all starts with this amazing coating you press the chicken into. It is super simple, just parmesan cheese, seasoning and garlic. Yep… it really is that simple. The parmesan cheese and garlic gives the chicken so much…

KETO Cauliflower Risotto
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE risotto. I love how decadent, rich and full of flavor it is. Traditional risotto (like this recipe) is not KETO friendly but when you use cauliflower rice it becomes VERY KETO friendly. One skillet is all you need The beauty of risotto is that it is typically made all on one pan. This makes it a perfect side dish for a busy weeknight or lazy weekend. This time around I went with a simple parmesan risotto but if you wanted to add in some mushrooms or bacon you would cook them in the skillet before you add in the cauliflower rice. This way the…

Lemon Quinoa
Are you a quinoa fan? Well, I am …. I am a BIG, BIG fan. I love it in a salad, paired with chicken or salmon or with yogurt for breakfast. One of my favorite quinoa recipes is Spanish Quinoa, it is perfect for Taco Tuesday… but my new favorite is this Lemon Quinoa which is perfect for summer! Quinoa for All… Now I know not everyone is a fan of quinoa, but this recipe might just change their mind. It is loaded with tons of flavor. There is a lemon in each bite, making it light and refreshing. With the arugula you get a bit of peppery bite, which I…

One Pot of Cheesy Yummy
I love food…that is no secret. I love everything from tacos to osso bucco to chili and BBQ (I do live in Texas). One thing I am always in the mood for though is pasta and if it is cheesy pasta that is even better. Branching out a bit… A few weeks a go I was with my mom and we went to one of our favorite lunch places, Cafe Express. Normally I get their roasted vegetable tart but that day I really wanted pasta so I went with their pasta alfredo. I really loved it as it was a little different than my mortal go to alfredo. It…

a little sprout for everyone
I was asked the other day why I was inspired to use Sprouts in my name, and I had to laugh. In all my time of blogging no one had ever asked me. As silly as it sounds, I was inspired by brussel sprouts…yes the veggie. Yes that one pictured below. A sprout changed my world About 6 or 7 years ago (I can’t believe it has been that long) The sis-in-law asked me to just try her brussel sprouts. You see I made a promise to her that I would start trying veggies. Prior to this promise I was not a veggie girl and would stay away from them as much…

crispy without the guilt
Crispy & good without guilt sounds like a perfect dinner to me. Crispy with cheese & good sounds even better!! About 6 weeks ago I had surgery and was not able to get around very well for several weeks. Finally about 3 weeks ago I could start getting back into the kitchen (much to The HUbby’s dismay) and the first thing I wanted to make was parmesan chicken. OK, now if you know me at all this is not something that I would normally be craving, but after several weeks of food from restaurants and The HUbby’s cooking (which was really great) I wanted a parmesan chicken…I don’t know why, it…

healthy + chips = new favorite
The word healthy was a yucky word to me for many years. Healthy meant veggies, no flavor and boring. Did you ever think that? Has the word healthy been hard to swallow before? Well don’t worry…it is soon to become one of your favorite words because now healthy can be chips too! One of the first veggies I first fell in love with was zucchini. It started with the fried appetizer version at a great local dive where my grandparents lived when I was a kid, and eventually it moved to a baked version. When I say eventually I mean EVENTUALLY…it took like 20 years, but I did eventually get there.…
