The Pescetarian and the Pig

First, I need to make sure I take a moment to say Happy Father’s Day to all of the fathers out there! I feel like it’s just as much a celebration for children with wonderful fathers as well. I wish everyone were lucky enough to have a dad as awesome as mine is! A dad […]

Mixed Berry Stuffed Crescent Rolls. ‘Tis the season to put berries in practically anything you can! They’re overflowing at the grocery store and in case you haven’t heard, they’re amazing.  Truly, truly amazing. I pity the fool who has not had a fresh blackberry, strawberry, blueberry, or raspberry. And sadly, I know that there are actually […]

Nacho Trifles. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Mine was extremely productive. I had the luck of having friends and family members that needed multiple appetizers and desserts made for various parties. This time of year is fantastic for me, because it gives me an excuse to try out a billion new recipe ideas […]

This mixture of dark chocolate, almonds, chia seeds, and oranges is just that. Crunchy, delicious, healthy, and just a handful should satisfy your hunger. Plus, don’t the chia seeds look […]

Orange Poppy Seed Vinaigrette So, the other day I brought you Crab and Mango Stuffed Avocados and I told you to serve it with a light dressing, right? Well, this here is the light dressing that I had in mind: This Orange Poppy Seed Vinaigrette is so light and so refreshing, and it adds the […]

Crab and Mango Stuffed Avocado Four things that I learned from Horatio Cane: 1. When entering a room, always look down and approach sideways. Once acknowledged, it’s OK to very slowly remove your sunglasses with both hands, using only the thumb and forefinger of each hand. 2. Never make eye contact with the person you’re […]

Strawberry Banana Greek Yogurt Cake with Orange Glaze. So, here’s the deal. In the past couple of months I have developed the sleeping pattern of a geriatric. I wake up at 4:30 am and I go to bed at 8:30pm. And sometimes I barely even make it that late. I get to the gym at […]

Chocolate Chipotle Seared Salmon Salad Last week, I did a guest post exchange with Kelly from Eat Yourself Skinny.

If you missed it over there, I’m bringing it […]
