Beef Taco Rice Bowl



Who needs the shell anyway? All the best part of a taco - in a bowl.

Chicken Quinoa Bowls

 Grilled chicken, fresh lemons, ripe avocados, and a quinoa salad with corn, cherry tomatoes, red pepper, cucumber, cilantro, and onion- a.k.a Chicken Quinoa Bowl. This is the perfect summer dish that everyone will enjoy. 

Slow Cooker Chicken-Sausage Stew

 Chicken and Kielbasa go together like "lamb and tuna fish... maybe you like spaghetti and meatball? You more comfortable with that analogy?" (Gotta love Big Daddy.) I made this dish but lightened it up by using brown rice and low-fat ingredients. You can enjoy this dish even on a diet...right? It's pretty awesome. With our wedding coming up, Ivan has been trying to trim-down. I figured I would try my best to cook my normal meals but lighten them up so he doesn't feel guilty if he has seconds. And he always goes for seconds.

Creamy Tomato Basil Pasta Bake

This dish is perfect when you're strapped for time but still want a delicious, healthy, and hearty meal. You won't guess what "secret" ingredient makes this dish ahhmazing!

Spinach and Ricotta Egg Bake

Spinach, cheese, and veggies? Yep- I love them all individually. Put them together and top it off with puff pastry, I might just be in breakfast heaven. This meal is great for brunch and even better for breakfast for dinner!
