I 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!...
Read MoreCorn casserole is one of those famous southern things. Though... oddly enough we never had it in my house when I was growing up. We always had cornbread. Not because we weren't fans of corn casserole or anything... we just always had cornbread instead, and I have no answer for 'why'.
To be honest, this corn casserole was actually a happy little accident on my part.

Read MoreA while back I made this Tortellini en Brodo soup, which is not only one of my favorites, but also a favorite of my mothers. I could seriously eat that soup at least once a week for the rest of my life and never get tired of it. Yes. It's that good.

I've made a Skinny Pimento Cheese before, but I always wanted to go back and make a spicy jalapeño version of it because... well, I love spicy stuff. Besides... what goes better with cheese than jalapeños anyway?...
Read MoreIt was a little gloomy here Sunday and us girls (grandma, mom, daughter, and myself) were all a little tired out from the weekend. We decided to spend our afternoon being lazy with watching a movie and eating some popcorn.
So, I went in my kitchen and whipped out a brown paper lunch bag and my popcorn kernels and started to get to it. My mom is always curious about my popcorn. Seriously? You can just do it yourself? Without a box or some sort of expensive popcorn machine? Seriously. Yes. You can...
Read MoreWhile I was putting together my weekly meal plan this weekend, I was racking my brain to come up with some fun lunch ideas for my little girl. Somewhere along the way I realized that she has never had the 'joy' of trying a Lunchable.
A few other things that she's never had? Spaghetti O's... McDonald's anything... or a frozen meal (such as Kid Cuisine.)
So, I decided that I would make her a home version of a Lunchable to take for lunch this week at school. And in the process... I realized I wanted to be a kid again this week too!...
