If you have been intimated to make risotto at home, this shrimp risotto is easy! When I was in Italy I bought arborio rice that had turmeric.  The color that turmeric gives this risotto is incredible and pairs really well with the shrimp. Is it better to buy fresh or frozen shrimp? Unless you live near a body of water that you can get fresh...

Banana Bread Pancakes You must put these banana bread pancakes recipe on the top of your list to meal prep this week.  So delicious!  Only 3 Weight Watchers points per pancake and 136 calories. For whatever reason lately, once I buy bananas, if I don’t eat any the day I buy them, the next day they are basically ready to use as banana bread.  When...

These key lime bites will be the hit at your next BBQ!  I plan on making these all summer. Safe + Fair has what I like to call their summer flavors for me – Key Lime Pie Granola and Strawberry Shortcake Granola – along with their respective popcorn flavors.  Yum!  The key lime is one of my favorites.  It’s light, bright and not overly sweet. ...

Salt and Pepper Tofu Stir Fry If you haven’t tried tofu in a while, definitely try my salt and pepper tofu stir fry – quick and delicious! There was a restaurant near my old office called Imperial Lamian, and they had THE BEST salt and pepper tofu as one of their appetizers.  Sadly, they had to close due to the pandemic, but every once in...

Vegan Pancake Recipe These vegan protein pancakes are the best pancakes I’ve ever made! When you haven’t been to the grocery store for yourself (I recently spent a long weekend at my Mom’s house when my brother and his family were visiting – we went to Mariano’s four days in a row!) you kind of have to be creative with what you have.  Normally, I...

This easy shrimp fried rice is a great way to sneak in some veggies! My late husband made THE BEST fried rice.  You can check out this video of how he makes it here.  I watched this a couple times today – it made me smile.  Sadly, my fried rice is nowhere near as good as he made it, but this is still really good. ...

These spicy hummus deviled eggs will become your favorite! Easter isn’t a big holiday in my family, but one thing that was always on our Easter dinner table was deviled eggs.  Not a big fan of mayo, so these greek yogurt and hummus stuffed eggs are my new favorite way to make deviled eggs. Pro tip – buy already made hard boiled eggs and save...

This cajun shrimp and grits recipe needs to go to the top of the pile of recipes to make.  So delicious! Two of my Instagram friends, Carla and Shawna put together a mini cooking club.  They picked out this Weight Watcher recipe to be the recipe that everyone makes.  It is so amazing to me how everyone has the same ingredients and instructions and each...

The secret to my vegan tomato soup recipe?  Silken Tofu! A couple weeks ago I bought silken tofu for a pancake recipe, and I never ended up making it.  My lunch out yesterday was 24 points, and I thought for sure I’d be over my healthy range for the day on WW.  Nope!  This vegan tomato soup was made mostly in my blender, and other...

These Italian Turkey Meatballs are perfect for meal prep for the week! Truth be told I used to give ground turkey the stink eye.  We never ate ground turkey growing up so it was out of my wheelhouse and one of those foods I just told myself I didn’t like.  But I love these turkey meatballs!  Side note – one of my favorite pots is...
