Moroccan Fish over Whole Grain Couscous
I’ll admit I’ve been in a recipe blogging rut lately. It’s not that I’ve not been cooking, I just haven’t felt like coming up with new, inventive dishes, taking food photos, documenting the recipes and then posting them. I’ve been more in the mood to take a look in the fridge, whip something up and eat it… Read More»
No-Bake Carrot Cake Cream Cheese Bars
I hope everyone had a fun, relaxing and sunshine-y Easter weekend. This was my first holiday here in The Woodlands, TX.

Homemade BBQ Potato Chips and Curried Sweet Potato Chips
This is probably the easiest snack and recipe ever, but so much healthier than the alternative of grabbing a bag of fried chips. I’m always trying to get my clients more involved in their food and eating “cleaner,” less processed foods. In general, potato chips are the perfect example of a highly processed food. You start… Read More»

I rarely venture into the frozen section, but I found some Annie Chun Organic Shiitake & Vegetable Potstickers— score. I whipped up this soup in less than 20 minutes…. Read More»
Cilantro-Lime Tuna Burgers
I made these tuna burgers as a recovery meal after a heavy leg day in the gym. They’ve got complex carbs to refuel my muscles with the whole grain bun, protein from the tuna to help repair and rebuild those muscles, and healthy fats from the olive oil. These burgers have the added benefit of… Read More»
Lightened Up Beer Cheese Soup
Ok, so beer cheese soup is in no way a LIGHT dish. It’s a majorly creamy comfort food. The bf was feeling under the weather and I wanted to make him something to feel better but chicken soup was too boring so I figured why not put together two of his favorite things (beer and… Read More»
Creamy White Cheddar Cauliflower Soup
Yes, I am 100% guilty of using my new food processor to make everything. But I’ve been wanting one for so long I can’t help it!
