Video: Baked Buffalo Wings
With Super Bowl Sunday quickly approaching I knew it was due time for a video featuring my Spicy Baked Buffalo Wings!
Not only are these wings baked and not fried, but they just so happen to be a very simple recipe to whip up. As a matter of fact…
Clean Eating Turkey Chili
This one is simple.
I haven’t thrown in any extra veggies or magical ‘super-foods’.
This is a straight-forward, no-frills, chili recipe that reminded me that sometimes you’ve just gotta let a classic be a classic.
It’s warm, cozy, comfort food at it’s delicious best (and it just so happens to be packed with protein and fiber to boot;)).
Warm Lentil Salad Speckled W/ Kale and Pomegranate Seeds
I believe that everything in life happens for a reason.
I have been wanting to share this Warm Lentil Salad with you guys for years (no exaggeration). It’s a recipe that I learned when I attended The New School of Cooking over 5 years ago it’s been one of my ‘no-fail-go-to-salads’ ever since.
But for whatever reason, it just never made it to the blog, and now I know why…
Persimmons Pomegranate Salad with Butter Lettuce and Arugula
As much as I love the East coast and my Jersey roots there are a few things in California that I would find very, very, very hard to leave behind… the weather (obviously!), the year-round outdoor activities (especially the hiking!), and of course the Farmers markets (aka the availability of amazing, seasonal, top-notch ingredients).
But since having Katie and Jachs, I have found it much harder to peruse the farmers markets like I once did. Rather, I often find myself b-lining it straight to my favorite vendors and buying the same old produce week after week… until now… because I finally decided to join a local CSA (and I am absolutely giddy about it!).
Leftover Steak and Spinach Quesadilla with Provolone
Remember that marinated Flank Steak from Monday?
Well as promised, here’s how to turn the leftovers into a quick, Clean&Delicious weeknight meal (this my friends is why you should always make extra! – it’s ‘head-start ingredients’ like this leftover steak that will take your weeknight meals from ho-hum to hip-hop-hooray!)
KidBite: Whole Grain Elbows With Lentils
It’s been a while since I’ve shared a KidBite.
It’s not because my kids don’t eat, rather that I’m not a very good multi-tasker and trying to figure out how to balance two children with everything I would like to be doing in my life without falling into the abyss of complete exhaustion is something I’m still working on.
Everyday I promise myself that I’m gonna share all of the great recipes, tips, ideas, etc. that I have about living a Clean & Delish life (family style) here on the blog, but after the mini’s are in bed and my day of ‘doing’ is over, I just can’t seem to resist the desire to allow my brain to melt into a puddle of ‘being’.
But with that being said, I just couldn’t wait to share this recipe with you guys…
Clean Eating Pork Banh-Mi Wrap
I used to be very experimental in the kitchen.
I could spend an entire afternoon exploring a new idea, ingredient, technique or simply trying to recreate a recipe that I ate out somewhere.
That was when I had a lot of free time on my hands.
That was before I was graced with these two little munchkins…
Quinoa Tabouli w/ Feta Cheese and Garbanzo Beans
This Quinoa Tabouli Salad is yet another No-Cook meal that beats the heat (provided you’ve pre-prepped your quinoa over the weekend;). It’s light, refreshing and simple to make so get out your grocery list and jot this down because this is a no-brainer recipe that you’re gonna wanna add to this weeks menu!
Vegetarian Springtime Pesto Bowl
There are many-a-meals made in my home that never make it to the blog.
Often times it’s because I don’t have the time, desire, or patience to get a decent picture of the food (and I am a-gotta-see-it-to-wanna-eat-it-kinda-girl) but most of the time it’s because a lot of what we eat around here doesn’t seem to fit into “recipe-format”.
Take this Vegetarian Springtime Pesto Bowl as an example…
Fennel, Parsley, and Radicchio Salad w/ A Citrus Vinaigrette
When I was growing up the definition of salad was iceberg lettuce with tomatoes and cucumbers and if we were being really fancy we might even throw in some mushrooms and black olives.
I have a hunch that my family wasn’t the only one out there stuck in a salad rut. How many of you guys buy the same old lettuce and veggies to make your salads?
C’mon, fess up…
