Clean Eating Pork Banh-Mi Wrap

Bahnmi

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…

Sweet and Smokey Turkey Burger

Smokey Turkey Burger

Of the many things that I adore about the longer days and warmer weather that Spring promises, I think it’d be fair to say that grilling outdoors is at the top of my list.

So with recent temperatures reaching the high seventies here in Los Angeles lately, my hubby and I have been cooking up a storm on our grill and this Sweet and Smokey Turkey Burger recipe is my latest favorite!

Portabella Mushroom Burger

Portabella Burger

As much as I enjoy eating fish, poultry, and meat my husband and I definitely make an effort to eat a couple of meat-free dinners a week.  And when I say, ‘meat-free’ what I really mean is, ‘veggie-based’.

In other words, I don’t recommend swapping out your salmon, chicken, and beef for white pasta and cheese quesadillas…

Greek Style Turkey Burgers – Video

UUUUUGGGHHH!!  I was all set to post this video on Thursday so we could kick off the Holiday weekend with a Clean and Delicious Burger recipe but due to technical difficulties (something behind the scenes was corrupted) and a serious lack of computer tech knowledge I needed to get in touch with a computer technical genius to help me solve the problem (over a holiday weekend none-the-less).

Anyhow, long story short – everything is fixed and we’re ready to go SO read this post as if it’s Friday BUT remember – you don’t need a holiday weekend to make these simple and tasty burgers.  (Truth be told, I usually have them as a quick go-to during a busy week!!)

Lentil Joe’s

From the recipe archive, originally posted May, 2009

I grew up eating the real-deal Sloppy Joe’s (a.k.a. “Manwich”)  and I’m not gonna lie… they were one of my favorites!  But as my eating habits shifted, Sloppy Joe’s just kind of fell off the radar.

The PB&B Sandwich – The Ultimate Snack Food

Unlike the self-proclaimed life of Denise Richards, eating well does NOT need to be complicated.  Sure we can complicate it if we want to and more often than not we do, but the truth is that it doesn’t have to be that way.
