Sausage, Kale, and White Bean Pasta

Kale, the trendy “superfood” pops up in my basket quite a bit. I don’t love it, but it gives me an opportunity to get creative in the kitchen. This dish is inspired by sausage, kale, and white bean soup and will take you halfway across the world to a trattoria […]

Tropical Green Smoothie

I’m definitely on the green smoothie bandwagon. When they initially gained popularity, I really wasn’t convinced that I would be okay drinking a salad. I finally tried it because of the nutritional benefit and found that I really like them!

Cauliflower Mac and Cheese

The other day I was really craving macaroni and cheese. I adore the cheesy, hearty flavor of macaroni – it is practically its own food group in my life. I began to wonder if I could pull it off using cauliflower in the sauce like I do in my “Alfredo sauce”.

Mini-Chimis

My family loves chimichangas.  They can be made with chicken, beef, pork, or just veggie. These are great to make with the wrap pack add-on.  Use the spicy wraps as your base.  If you have leftover chicken, roast, or hamburger, these are easy to assemble and have for dinner. These […]

Breakfast Wraps

Breakfast wraps are healthy, fast, convenient, and yummy!  I like to make my wraps with scrambled eggs, ham, bacon, cheese, veggies, and salsa.  There are many varieties of breakfast wraps.  I like to use the wrap add-on pack and make scrambled egg wraps to freeze.  After I wrap them, I […]
