I recently started to try and eat more organic. Honestly it is hard to do at times. But, I was watching the CNN special Toxic America and came across some interesting information. Some produce contains more pesticides than other and by purchasing organic you can reduce your pesticide amount up to 80%. I printed the article out [...]

I am not a huge coleslaw fan. I am not too into the creamy dressing? Either way I found this recipe that is Thai inspired and really liked it! I think you should try it for your next BBQ. It would be perfect with grilled chicken or ribs.

I just love green peas in the spring time. Each year I find new ways to use the little veggie in new and creative ways. I came up with this orzo for my Easter lunch. It was very simple and actually tasted even better the next day after the flavors sat together and chilled.

YUM! I used my Honey Baked Ham from Easter for this dish and it was excellent! Sweet potatoes and edamame have been labeled ”super foods” being they are full of good for you nutrients. If you have never had an edamame I suggest you try one. This is not my own recipe, however I did leave out a few things and [...]

This was in last months Southern Living…the problem was there was no measurements…just a picture. So, I created my own and I think it is pretty close to theirs!
