Veggie Crunch Salad {Weight Watchers 2 PointsPlus}
I was shopping at Trader Joe’s yesterday and was offered a sample. Never one to turn down a Trader Joe’s sample, I took a bite and was amazed. I don’t typically grab the sample products as readily as I did yesterday, but I HAD to make this salad at home. Not only was it full…
Corn, Avocado and Black Eyed Peas Salsa
My sister shared this salsa recipe with me years ago and it quickly became a family favorite. We make it at just about every family gathering (it’s wonderful during the summer with a few extra fresh tomatoes) and it’s always a hit with company. While this salsa is delicious any time of the year,…
Goat Cheese and Beet Spring Salad
I am obsessed with this goat cheese and beet spring salad…and it’s not just about the taste (which is amazing, by the way). I am obsessed with how sinfully EASY it is to make. Which is why I’ve been eating a lot of this salad lately… Can you blame me? My husband and…

Wheat Berry Vegetarian Tortilla Soup
My sister shared this recipe for vegetarian tortilla soup using whole wheat berries with me several years ago. I was very skeptical at first. I had used whole wheat kernels to grind into fresh wheat flour and always have several hundred pounds of whole wheat stored in my basement….but I had never considered eating…
Easy Roasted Tomato Salsa Recipe
A few weeks ago, my sister sent me hundreds of tomatoes from her garden. I’ve never, ever seen a garden produce such an abundance of tomatoes. I was determined to come up with several ways to use up as many of the tomatoes as possible before they went bad (which, by the way, is a…
Black Bean Tacos
It’s handy having teenage kids who are Pinterest junkies. What feels like ages ago, my oldest daughter found a recipe for black bean tacos and volunteered to help make it for dinner one night. I love adding black beans to my traditional ground beef tacos (I love the flavor it adds, but I mostly love…
