It is Wednesday and time for another version of my “What I Ate Wednesday” (WIAW). Today, it will feature all of my food from yesterday: the healthy, the yummy and the…. dessert. This is a true picture into what I eat in a day: I don’t change my eating for the day, I don’t cook […]
Five Favorite Crockpot Meals
Crockpot meals are a must in our house and I am sure they are in yours too. Each week I make 1-2 meals in the crockpot because it is so easy and I love having dinner ready without rushing around in the evenings. Often times you think of the crockpot as a wintertime thing, but […]
What I Ate Wednesday #3
Did you know that “What I Ate Wednesday” is actually all over the internet? Starting by the wonderful Jenn over at Peas & Carrots, What I Ate Wednesday is a large link up amongst many bloggers- I am just late to the game. The awesome thing about #WIAW is it doesn’t have to be showcasing […]
What I Ate Wednesday #2
My first “What I Ate Today” post was a hit and I thought I’d entertain you all with another. The thing about these posts are that they are my real life. I don’t alter what I am going to eat because I know that I am documenting it. I don’t pick a day that is […]
What I Ate Wednesday #1

Pecan Crusted Tilapia
I love fish and always have, but I used to be afraid of cooking fish. I didn’t know how or what to put on it and could never get it to taste as good as the restaurants. Now it is actually the complete opposite: I rarely order tilapia or salmon at a restaurant because I can […]
Buffalo Chicken Chili
Nothing says game day, playoffs or Super Bowl like buffalo chicken and chili. I am here to share this amazing recipe that combines the two. This is the perfect Sunday afternoon meal that you can put on the stove and each throughout the day. It is thick, warm (in temperature and spice), and healthy. We made […]
Cranberry Spinach Salad {Thanksgiving Recipe}
It is hard to believe in two weeks we will be rushing to the store to grab everything we need for our Thanskgiving meals. We have all seen a million different statistics about holiday weight gain, and you don’t need me to repeat them to you. When it comes to holiday eating, I like to […]
