MY OH MY…this is tasty and versatile!! It goes together easy and goes down even easier. I will say that it tasted even better after letting flavors blend for 24 hours so would suggest this as a make ahead dish. I love it over lettuce, in a wrap and just by the spoonful. It’s very…

SALAD PIZZA WITH WHITE BEANS AND PARMESAN
I found this recipe in the paper and already my brain is running with tweaks that will make it vegan friendly. They use pizza dough in the recipe and I started with a cauliflower crust. ( A thin Gluten Free crust would be amazing too!!) This is one of those meals that kids might turn…
TURKEY MEATBALL FLATBREAD
Here is another little twist on Flatbreads…Turkey meatballs. The meat on this flatbread could be any meatless product. For example: Vegetarian meat crumbles or Vegan sausage or even pan fried seasoned tofu. Flatbreads are a wonderful alternative to pizza. There is a Gluten Free Flatbread available as well. This might be a little harder to…
GOURMET QUESADILLAS
We normally call something that looks like this a “cheesy thing”. Our kids and our grandchildren have and are growing up on “cheesy things”. They consist of a flour tortilla and shredded cheese and can be cooked in a micro wave or in a skillet. The micro wave is a softer version of the skillet…
PAN FRIED HONEY SALMON
Need a really fast, gourmet dinner? If you have some frozen salmon fillets in your freezer, or can make a quick trip to the grocery for fresh fillets, this meal can be prepared at the end of a very hard day and when you sit down to enjoy it, not only is it visually appealing,…
TURKEY LETTUCE WRAPS
Have you ever experienced PJ CHANGS lettuce wraps? Before children, my daughter and I would share this appetizer with a glass of Chardonnay and I felt like I was on vacation. It was totally different than anything I had ever fixed at home, it was healthy, satisfying and delicious. This recipe took me back to…
FLATBREADS THAT LOOK AND TASTE AMAZING!!!
I am new to the flatbread world and have a lot to learn about: if Gluten Free Flat breads exists and if they taste good and where to find them. For now, I am just using the regular flatbreads found in your grocery and they are not gluten free. We can make the rest of…
SHRIMP FAJITAS
This is quite possibly the healthiest Mexican dish I have eaten. Notice the lack of CHEESE????? This is made up of veggies and shrimp with some dairy free sour cream to top it off. It’s delicious!!! Do you know what even makes it easier to throw together? A tube of guacamole, now found in your…
TURKEY AND PEPPER ENCHILADAS
Actually, the original recipe called for ground pork, but ground turkey works beautifully as well. If you are a red meat eater, you could substitute ground round or meatless crumbles or Impossible burger for that vegan option. I love enchiladas and for the most part have only had them in a Mexican restaurant because they…
AHOY MATEY!! BRING ON THE CLAM CHOWDER
My sister-in-law makes the BEST clam chowder and I’ve been able to tweak it just enough that it works for me and my dietary needs. There is one ingredient you can not tweak and that’s bacon. If someone knows about vegan bacon, please share!! I reduced the amount in the recipe. One of my favorite…
