Rainbow Carrot Cutlets

August 19, 2015 By Christina Russell Leave a Comment

The summer always makes me think of bright beautiful colors like rainbows, sunflowers and oh-so-delicious food!

I feel like I have always had a love affair with pretty food. The more colorful – the more I want to eat it!

When I was younger, it was mostly bright fruits and crayola-colored icing that got my attention, but as I came into my twenties, I really started turning my attention to vegetables. I started noticing the deep purple eggplant, those sunshine yellow spaghetti squash and those bright orange bell peppers.

Fried Rice {Gluten Free}

July 28, 2015 By Marcella Rose Leave a Comment

Marcella Rose here. Now if you are like me, you’re constantly trying to save money and what a better way to save than to use those leftovers! It’s always a shame to throw away perfectly good food, am I right? Now I don’t just like to warm up a leftover, though I have been known to do so, but where is the imagination in that?! What I love is taking a leftover and making something extraordinary with it; something that makes the family run to the table.

So today I want to share with you an easy and quick recipe that will use your leftover white rice in a flash and with some panache! I mean we all order take out and it seems that with every dish comes the ubiquitous box of white rice. You may eat a scoop, but I have never once used up all the rice. Sometimes I make a rice pudding (I will share that recipe with you next time!) but most times I make fried rice.

What I love about fried rice is that your can serve it for every meal! If I serve it in the morning I like to baste an egg and place it on top; the gooey, runny yolk makes for a great sauce on the rice and really puts it over the top for the first meal of the day. Serve this at a brunch and your guests will be stunned and love every bit of it.

Pina Colada Shrimp with Pineapple Salsa

July 14, 2015 By Linda Warren Leave a Comment

What could be better than crystal clear blue skies, swaying palm trees and a pina colada in hand? Umm, nothing! Living in Florida I get the gorgeous weather all year long but I really enjoy a pina colada the most when I head to my favorite vacation spot, Key West. And when I think of Key West I think of Key West pinks, aka shrimp, which is what inspired me to create this yummy recipe for Pina Colada Shrimp. [Read more…]

Sausage and Veggie Stir-fry

Quick, easy, and veggie-filled stir-fry perfect for lunch or dinner

Who wants to talk about veggies?

Me me!!

I always want to talk about veggies. Always. In fact, I am doing a weekly series on eating Veggies All Year.

I’ve been learning so much about so many different types of veggies; however, there’s one little thing that I’ve noticed about doing this… I have a surplus of veggies in my apartment.

I buy big bags of each veggie because who wants to look at pictures of one onion? Um, no one. That’d be so weird!

Either way, I have a lot of veggies in my apartment, but I obviously do not deem this a problem. Not even a little bit of a problem. Except when I feel like they’re going bad. I will not waste veggies! That’d be such a crime!
