One of my favorite foods in all the land is a twice baked potato filled with butter, bacon, cheese and sour cream. But trying to be healthy and all doesn’t quite mesh with the feelings I have towards that glorious potato. So what do you do when you want a comforting, creamy potato but not all

Indian-Style Roasted Cauliflower
My favorite way to eat cauliflower is roasted. It gets brown and crispy in the oven which brings out its sweetness. I always simply toss it with olive oil, salt and pepper but while I was looking for some interesting Indian recipes to try, I came across this spiced cauliflower that looked too good not to try.
Cucumber Raita
Have you seen this floating around social media? Made me laugh out loud as I think it often. Especially during school drop off when I have to bundle 2 kids, park the car and walk Noah, who decides to move like a sloth, to the door. Not cool weather. Not cool. These cucumbers so light, crisp

Honey Balsamic Roasted Carrots
These Honey Balsamic Roasted Carrots are holiday and weeknight perfection. They are tangy and slightly sweet. We have been all about carrots lately. They are a great vegetable to have on hand since they last forever and you can prepare them in all kinds of ways. My mom has always hated cooked carrots and her
Grilled Zucchini
I don’t like a whole lot of vegetables but the ones that I do enjoy I totally love. And zucchini is one of those vegetables. I could probably eat it every day. I love grilled zucchini but I usually had trouble preparing it. I used to slice it into bite size chunks, place it in
