Eden's Crazy Egg Salad 09/29/2017 This week is all about eggs! They aren't just for breakfast, and no you shouldn't toss those yolks! Eggs are a cheaper meal base than any other meat or fish, which makes them budget friendly, too. And you all know how thrifty I am! We visited an amazing farm up in Fishkill, NY recently, and grabbed several dozen of their eggs, since finding organic, pasture raised chickens in our town is impossible! Store bought eggs just don't compare to fresh eggs, but if you can't get your hands on them

Shrimp Boil Salad 07/20/2017 It's hot as blazes out there today, and since I'm currently land locked, I've been daydreaming of our beach house ALL DAY LONG. I need some ocean air! Some sandy toes! Some lobster rolls! (Yeah, I said "some" and not "one" lobster roll. I'm doing a detox this week and a girl can dream!) This salad is a perfect simple summer dish for a heat wave when you'd rather be at the beach! A few convenience items can make it come together even faster, which is how I avoided turning on the oven on a 95

Pesto Baked Chicken Breasts over Rainbow Chard and Golden Beets 06/02/2017 I did it. A cleanse. I can't really believe it. I have felt pretty anti-cleanse for a long time, mostly because it makes me think of juices all day long, being really hangry, and not chewing. None of that sounds good to me. Luckily I took the time recently to do a little reading up on cleanses, right around the time I started feeling like garbage. See, even with all of the healthy eating and exercising that I do, I still have rough stretches when I fall off track and drink a beer (or 4), eat

Marinated Lentils Salad 05/27/2017 Whoop! It's Memorial Day weekend and the unofficial kick off for summer! I always find it a touch ironic that the day we are meant to don shorts and bikinis is also the day we fill with beer, mayonnaise, and hot dogs. Yes, summer food is fun! But it doesn't have to be unhealthy, especially since summer produce is full of incredible flavor and color. It doesn't even have to be doused with dressing to taste good. You just need a few great recipes in your arsenal to keep everyone happy and stick to

Chickpea Salad with Lemon and Herbs 05/13/2017 It's the rainiest of rainy days here today. The type that makes you want to crawl up into bed with tea and a book and forget the world is out there. But this girl has goals to chase and people to meet. No hiding under the covers today! Instead I opted for a mood boosting salad full of fresh, bright flavor and color to get me going past the dreary wearies. Protein, superfoods, and vitamin packed, this salad is sturdy enough to prep ahead so you can have enough to make lunches all week. Bonus!
