It’s the day after Memorial Day and since we celebrated with some friends, I didn’t cook anything for the long weekend. Tonight, I pulled out my Cooking Light recipes and some big ol’ Georgia shrimp to use with my red potatoes. I had no idea that Frogmore Stew is the same thing we call “cajun [...]

What a hectic week! Between finishing school, starting to THINK about packing for 3 weeks in Colorado, and ramping up race training, (and maybe a small addiction to Candy Crush Saga) I’m extremely busy. I’m in that weird space of time where I don’t want to buy a weeks’ worth of groceries because we will [...]

I really need to branch out from salmon. But Cooking Light has so many fresh new ways to prepare salmon and I try to enjoy it at least once a week. This week, I’m using orange and rosemary. I’ve never used these two together so I was looking forward to the flavor combination. …

At the end of a work week, often I have lonely vegetables left in the fridge and I’m out of ideas on what to do with them. That was the case this week. I had a head of cabbage, some meatballs, and a shriveled up shallot that I refused to let die alone. …

Orange Shrimp with Squash “Noodles”

If Shrimp wasn’t on the healthy protein list, I would have serious issues. I already consider bacon to be enjoyed “in moderation”, and that’s hard enough. If I had to ration fish/seafood, I might get a tad grumpy. Then again, I got a little grumpy on the last episode of Worst Cooks in America when [...]

It’s amazing that I used to hide my cabbage under my mashed potatoes and now I’m eating mini cabbages and think they are FANTASTIC! Then again, I think bacon makes everything better. So does Cooking Light. This recipe is without a doubt the best recipe I’ve tried with roasting Brussels sprouts. The …

Winking smile

It has been a while since I’ve posted a favorite recipe from Cooking Light! During the 30 days the grain-free plan, I stuck to easy-to-fix vegetables and stir fries, many of which came from Cooking Light. Unfortunately, I did not get near as many pictures and I just don’t think I can post a recipe [...]
