Happy Tuesday! I don’t know about you, but I’m glad this particular Monday is over! We had a power outage due to storms that lasted over an hour and a half, then it was practically a monsoon the rest of the day. BUT, thankfully we {and our loved ones} survived the storms, and for that, I am truly grateful!…

Zucchini Fettuccine and Cauliflower Alfredo
I’ve written about personal things a couple of times here and each time I find myself surprised by the acceptance and embrace of my readers. I’m still young in this blog world, and still trying to find my voice. But it’s such a relief to know that I can just be me, whoever that is. So before I talk about this Zucchini Fettuccine and Cauliflower Alfredo, I’d love to be candid for a few minutes…

Avocado Deviled Eggs with Smoked Paprika
I am no expert eggs-pert {yes, I just did that… tried to type egg expert and heard the play on words in my head and couldn’t resist!} when it comes to deviled eggs. In fact, before making these lovely little green Avocado Deviled Eggs, I had never actually made them. Gasp, I know! Somehow over the years, when it came to family get-togethers and meals, I typically either volunteered or got volunteered for salad or dessert, and occasionally bread. Probably because {A.} I really love salad and tend to eat a lot of it, and {B.} love sweets and enjoy trying out new and different recipes…

Fudgy Flourless Chocolate Chili Muffins
I’m sorry… does that say chili pepper? On my chocolate muffin? Really?
Trust me. It sounds a bit odd, but it works! And it’s good! I don’t know if the whole cayenne, chili pepper, spicy-kick thing mixed with chocolate is new or just becoming more common, but suddenly I see the pairing in ice cream, truffles, chocolate bars and now these Fudgy Flourless Chocolate Chili Muffins!…
Green Power Salad with Roasted Veggies + Mom Update
Have you tried the Balsamic Almond and Turmeric Dressing yet?!? If not, here is the perfect Green Power Salad to put with it! If you didn’t get a chance to read my last post, then let me quickly fill you in.

However, the dressing took over, stole the show and got a post of its own! So now, as promised, I have the scoop on the salad that left my tummy happy and full, yet wanting more!…
