This was actually one of the first recipes that I posted here. It's been a family favorite for years and years now. Well, at least 7 years anyway! It was also one of the first real recipes that I made for my family.
I love it for how easy it is to make, but it's also one of the most delicious soups you can make, and is rather guilt free too!...

I know you remember that Guiltless Cauliflower Alfredo from the other day, right? Well, here's one of my favorite things to do with it. The idea for these Skinny Italian Nachos is a take-out fake-out from a big name chain.
Of course, mine are homemade, not fried, and socked full of hidden vegetable goodies. Making all the more wholesome and better-for-you in almost every single way possible...

It's summer and it's hot. Like real hot here in Texas. The sort of heat that will take your breath away when you step outside. There isn't a whole lot you can do to stay cool outside of water, fans, and some nice cold fruit either. One of my favorite summer fruits has to be grapefruit! It's refreshing and bright and perfect to help beat the summer heat.
Another summer favorite of mine is sparkling wine; namely brute rosé! I love that it's crisp and refreshing. Outside of drinking it, I like to come up with fun recipes and ideas to use wine and sparkling wines in recipes; giving me many different ways (other than drinking it) to enjoy an opened bottle repeatedly!...

Who doesn't love a good cool avocado dish on a hot HOT summer day? Okay, you caught me. I'm not going to lie. I love avocados year round, but there's just something about them during the summer that just brings even more joy and rapture to my soul.
This 'salad' is being called a salad because it sort of reminds me of what a vegetarian style 'chicken salad'. It's loaded up with plenty of avocado and summer flavors that bring a perfectly fresh and refreshing bite, and I've been looking for a good reason to use chickpeas again since they're one of my personal favorites...

It's the fourth of July weekend! While I'm spending it rather lazily at home as I recuperate from a few weeks of busy, busy, busy - I'm still finding the time to have fun and be festive! With an impromptu visit from my brother, I decided to toss together a quick 'snacky' meal that we could all graze on throughout the day at our leisure.
Naturally, my first inclination was a 7 layer dip. I think that's because it's one of those things that has something it in that everyone likes! It's one perfect montage or mashup of everything I love. Plus, it's perfectly light and cool for a hot summer day. And of course, since it's around the 4th of July, you just know I had to arrange this dip into the shape of the American flag to be all the more cute and festive!...
