    Roasted Vegetable and Hummus Wrap

    Good Monday Morning to you all! Hope you had a lovely weekend 🙂 I had a few dance performances this weekend so it was rather busy, as well as I can been trying to battle this cold I have had for about 2 weeks. YUCK! It is that time of year I suppose. I just wish I was better blah! Short post today. Just wanted to say hello share a quick and easy recipe that is great to make during the week, especially if you are busy. This literally takes no time to make and is just delicious! Wishing you all a great week! Happy Monday! Roasted Vegetable and Hummus…

    Notice anything different about my blog? No, not the design. Nope, not a new post. Look a little higher, little higher, BAM! This website is now www.ravienomnoms.com. No more wordpress.com :-). Just thought you all might like to know. It should redirect you automatically, but just in case…now you know 😉 Confession time… OK, I admit it, I am a bit obsessed with Cooking Light. I anxiously wait to get them in the mail every month and then I thumb through them and mark just about every single page as a “must try” recipe. There could be worse things right? That is what I always say when Patrick gives me…

    Caprese Wraps

    Whenever things are rough in my life I really try and focus on the good. That is all you can do right? If all you do is focus on the negative (which I am guilty of sometimes, I’ll admit) you will end up feeling hopeless and completely powerless to do anything to make the negative go away. So that is what I have been trying to do for the past few days, focus on the POSITIVE! I have a fantastic boyfriend (score) I have a family who loves me <3 I have a the cutest darn bunny who has the best personality (come on, how cute is he?) I have…

    Gates Bar-B-Q

    Ever notice that when you travel to places food tends to be one of things you remember the most? Good or bad. I have been to so many different places and the food always ends up being something that sticks in my memory the most. When I went back to Kansas City to visit family and friends there was 2 places that I knew I had to go because of the food. Gates Bar-B-Q and John’s Space Age Donuts. Let me tell you that these 2 places stick in my brain the most because, well…the food is great!! I literally landed in KC at about 11:00am and went straight to…

    Steak Pita

    I am officially on Day 3 of my detox and I feel awesome! No, I am not being sarcastic and yes, I am totally shocked! Before I started I felt so lethargic and just weighed down. I cannot tell you how much more energy I have in just the first few days of doing this. What a difference! Not only that, but my mood has gotten better since I have been on it. SHEESH! If I knew it was going to be this awesome, I would have done it a long time ago! My first 2 days looked a little like this: It was really easy actually. I have been…

    Got PB?

    Hello! I am back from Detroit! UGH, what a trip that was! Literally the day I left it was snowing once again in CT haha. What a winter we have had! They were canceling flights left and right at Bradley Airport, but for some reason the only flight that seemed to still be leaving was my Delta flight to Detroit, haha. Once I got to Detroit the weather wasn’t that bad at all. I was really surprised. Normally Detroit has much more snow than us by this time. They maybe had 6″ on the ground? and that was at most 6″…but not for long! While I was there, Detroit got…

    I am 26 today! OH MY GOODNESS! Where on earth did the time go?? I definitely do not feel 26 that is for sure, well I take that back…sometimes after I work out or after dance rehearsal I feel like I am 26slash50. hehe 😉 A special thanks to all my family and friends for wishing me a Happy Birthday today, it means so much that you all think of me. Thank you, thank you!! 🙂 This past Christmas I got a panini maker in a Yankee Swap that happens every year. If you have never had a Yankee Swap, consider doing it with your family next Christmas.

    Chicken Wraps with Pesto Aoili

    So, I left the blogging world there for a couple days…sorry my fellow bloggers! I am back…I just had such a rough week at work. Had one of those work weeks that makes you question what you do and why you work so hard. Was feeling kind of down on myself, but I am so glad it is Friday and that I get a few days off from work. Actually this weekend my parents are throwing a BBQ, which I am actually going to help my mom with ALL day tomorrow prepare for. So hopefully I will have lots of fun pictures for your viewing pleasure at the end of…
