I've had a few stuffed peppers in the past. When I was younger, I remember my mom making some spanish style stuffed peppers that I thought were pretty good even though at the time I wasn't a huge pepper fan.
Oh, how times have changed.
These stuffed peppers are pretty amazing and ridiculously easy to do. With around 10-15 minutes of preparation, you can have these babies set to cook through the day in your crock pot with hardly any fuss at all!...
Read MoreA couple of months ago I was out at Eeyore's birthday here in Austin.
Yes... we celebrate Eeyore's birthday here. It's quite a thing, actually.
Anyway! It was pretty warm out that day and there was a vendor selling some rather interesting sounding homemade organic local popsicles. One of the flavors on the list was a mango chile flavor.
Of course, that's the one that I ordered! Unfortunately, they were all sold out. Ergh!
Well, it sounded easy enough. I've made my share of popsicles in the past so I thought I'd try my hand at this mango chile one too!
Read MoreHow is it that eating the rainbow always seems to taste sooo amazing? There's something about all those natural bright colors that just set something off inside, making it extremely difficult not to smile when you see all of them together. And when in edible form too? Even better!
After all, who wouldn't want to eat a rainbow?
No big deal. I totally ate a rainbow for lunch.
Sounds pretty epic, right?
Plus, this salad is every bit as tasty as it is nutritious. I'm pretty sure that this is going to be a staple salad in my household throughout the summer months...

Read MoreIt's starting to get really hot here, and I've been busy starting to come up with healthy and refreshing ways to stay cool in the summer heat as it rears it's ugly head. Never mind that I'm dying here already and we have another 10+ degrees to go until we're really in the prime of Texas summer. Ugh.
So uhm... a whole popsicle for 30ish calories? Yes, please!
These popsicles are not only ridiculously healthy, but fresh and completely guilt free. Plus, it's an entirely fun way to eat your fruits...
Read MoreI've made Baked Egg and Avocado Bowls before, which are amazing, but I am also a fan of stuffed peppers. So, I figured... why not use the same idea and stuff peppers as a healthy low cab breakfast option? Of course!
These peppers are super easy to toss together and taste great. I was a little surprised with how filling and satisfying these were. I'm generally a carbivore in the morning.
Yes. That's right. A carbivore.
You know, similar to a carnivore... but with carbs rather than meat.
Shameful, I know. But... at least I'm honest!...
Read MoreI can has cheezburger? Without feeling guilty?! Yes, indeed! We all can.
These stuffed zucchini boats are a perfectly clever way to have a bun-less burger that I find to be a lot more filling and easy to eat than wrapping a patty in a mere lettuce leaf. You get all the satisfaction and flavors of a traditional cheeseburger packaged neatly into a zucchini squash.
Trust me when I say - you won't miss the bun at all!...
