Spicy Shrimp Bowls with Parmesan Quinoa and Garlic Kale
STAAHHPP with the kale. I know...I know...I'm sorry. It's the kale phase forcing my mind to only think of kale-inclusive recipes. The kale phase is still going strong, people. It's still going real strong. Can I tell you something that will clue you in on the craziness of my brain this week? I went grocery shopping after work today before I picked up Boone and headed home. Well, as I was ...
Brown Rice Lasagna Skillet
Do you ever have those weeks when you are just NOT MOTIVATED to do anything??? You have this big to-do list, but you would really rather just grab a pint of ice cream, sit down on the couch, and binge watch The Office until it's time to go to bed? Myyyyyy liiiife these past few weeks. It's a weird phase, though, because I am totally fine while I'm at work - productive, energized, into it. It's ...
Crunchy Cabbage Salad with Peanut Dressing [21 Day Fix]
Ah, Salad. We have had a rocky relationship in the past, and I sincerely apologize for that because you are delicious. I never was a huge fan of salad until I got older. I just thought they were BO-ring. Iceberg lettuce, carrots, cukes, ranch dressing. Blah, blah, blah. Boring. FALSE! If you put the right ingredients together, salads can be the bomb.com. I could literally eat a salad every single ...
Spicy Shrimp and Avocado Lettuce Wraps [21 Day Fix]
Oh my goodness love. Love. Love. These lettuce wraps make me so happy ????. They seriously pack the most amazingly flawless combination of flavors and textures...

Guacamole Turkey Burgers [21 Day Fix]
Okay. This is totally one of my new healthy faves. Scratch "healthy faves" and replace with just "faves" in general. The word faves is starting to sound strange. Despite the overuse of "faves," this turkey burger seriously is out of this world. The addition of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in the ground turkey yields SO much flavor. The patty alone seared with those ...
Baked Coconut Shrimp [21 Day Fix]
Coconut shrimp brings back happy, happy memories for me. There is this restaurant in Charlotte (and other places I'm sure), called Firebirds, and they have a-may-zing coconut shrimp. So, so, so, so, yummy. And I always had so much fun going there for various celebratory occasions (it's slightly fancy). Now, these aren't exactly like Firebird's because theirs have a good quarter inch of breading ...
Poached Eggs over Roasted Asparagus with Lemon Vinaigrette [21 Day Fix]
Poached eggs are scary. They seem very fancy and seem to require a lot of technical skill to make. Let me tell you something, though - with a few little tricks, making poached eggs is just as easy and scrambling 'em up in a skillet. I promise! And then you will look all fancy and awesome eating a perfectly poached egg. We can just keep it between you and I that it was super simple. No one else has ...

Dijon Crusted Salmon with Simple Arugula Salad [21 Day Fix]
Seafood twice in one week?? That's a lot for a blog that has included seafood a grand total of like three times (total estimate) over the last few years. I am making an effort to cook it more. Variety is the spice of life, right? You know what else is the spice of life? Everything that goes on top of this salmon. Dijon mustard, lemon juice, seasoned breadcrumbs. Seasoned with what, you may ask? ...
