GET IN THE SPIRIT:
“Life without Mexican food is no life at all.” -Unknown
Mexican lasagna is a go to in my house. Looking back, I think it was actually the first meal I ever made Walker and since then I’ve made it a couple dozen times. Today I’m sharing this recipe plus my Spanish “fried rice” recipe and I hope you enjoy!
MAKE IT A FIESTA:
“One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor.” -Unknown
I am off to Belize in a few days so I am in the vacation mood… which means cocktail time! I came up with this cocktail while I was in Cabo with my girls a few weeks ago. It’s not only refreshing, but it has a lot less calories and sugar than a traditional margarita using premade mix. Enjoy!
“My food is Louisiana, New Orleans-based. Well seasoned. Rustic.” -Emeril Lagasse
Walker loves red beans and rice so I decided to take a stab at it. I used brown rice and turkey andouille sausage to make this dish healthier than its traditional recipe. Not counting calories? Use this same recipe but sub in regular andouille and white rice. The spicy sausage and hearty beans make this dish the perfect meal.
“It’s not a diet. It’s called eating healthy.” -Unknown
Salmon is a go to protein in my house. It’s healthy, it’s Walker’s favorite and it’s so delicious. Today I’m sharing an easy salmon kabob recipe. This recipe is tanggy, sweet and spicy. Combined with the creamy tartar sauce this salmon recipe is a home run!
“Boyfriends are cool and stuff, but have you ever had garlic bread?” -Unknown
I know I tell you a lot of my recipes are easy, and they are! But this is the easiest appetizer you’ll ever make! I made this for Walker when we first started dating and it had rave reviews! He assumed it took me hours to make. Ha!
“My mom always cooked healthy. Greek food lends itself to cooking healthy.” -Cat Cora
Greek food has always been one of my favorites! Its simple ingredients allow the flavors to really shine through. Today I’m sharing easy kabobs with lemony Greek potatoes and a creamy dipping sauce that will make you want to lick the bowl!
“No one is born a great cook. One learns by doing.” -Julie Child
Crockpots are one of life’s greatest treasures! If you don’t have one, run, don’t walk to get one! You can make the most delicious meals in them. You basically throw stuff in and like magic a few hours later you have yourself an award winning dish.
This curry recipe is SO EASY! If you can use a can opener and can rough chop some veggies you’re already well on your way to success with this curry.
“You don’t need a silver fork to eat good food.” -Paul Prudhomme
Sliders are a great party appetizer, they’re bite sized, cute, and a crowd-pleaser. Today I’m sharing a slider recipe that is cheesy and spicy and oh-so yummy!
These spicy meatball sliders are great for any gathering and are simple and easy to make.
“Growing up, I learned life’s important lessons at the dinner table.” -John Besh
The struggle is real! Life is so busy. Balancing work and friends and family. There is so much on everyone’s plate that sometimes it’s difficult to get something besides takeout on your plate for dinner.
This recipe is a perfect week night dinner for anyone who feels guilty about ordering take out multiple nights in a row and wants to put something homemade on the table. Slice, dice and boil and this recipe is pretty much done.
