    Pasta Arrabbiata with Carrot Noodles

    Remember how I used to blog? Yea me too. I have been terrible about blogging lately. Not because I haven’t created lots of tasty treats but I feel like I really haven’t had much to say. Do you ever have that? Either way, I am super excited to be sharing this post today because it has to do with the amazing spiralizer I told you about with my Zoodles post. I was invited by Tuttorosso Tomatoes to share a recipes for their “Inspiralize the Spring” promotion. You can find all the details here, but I will go ahead and tell you what it is all about anyways.. 😉 During the…

    Sesame Carrot Salad

    Happy Friday! I cannot tell you how glad I am that it is going to be the weekend. This week has been hellish at work and I am looking forward to getting a break. Maybe even sleep in til 7:30am! How sad is it that 7:30am is sleeping in?? Today I am sharing with you one of my most favorite things to eat… Carrots! If you know me at all, you know that I have a large small affinity to carrots. A few years back, I even shared a story about how much I loved carrots as a kid too. So much so that I turned orange! Yes, actually turned…

    Garden Pasta Salad

    Congrats Tino!! He just bought himself a brand new 2011 Hyundai Sonata, fully loaded SE 2.0T,  and traded in his Ford Explorer. His exploder as we called it! He is a hard core Ford guy so I have to say I was very shocked when he decided on the Sonata, but the car is really beautiful and certainly is going to get him better gas mileage than the exploder. Although, I know he will miss his big car…but I am SO proud of him for buying his first *new* car (you know how that goes, owning lots of cars in your lifetime but never a *new* car)! In spirit of…

    Sesame Noodles with Chicken

    It’s Friday!! What a week this has been! I think that being gone to California really put a dent in my workload at work. I just cannot seem to get ahead of the game. Needless to say I am pretty happy about it being Friday not only because it means I don’t have to work tomorrow and I get to sleep in, BUT one my girlfriends at work went on a “HOT DATE” last night and I can’t wait to hear about it!! 😉 Last night I wanted to try and make something a little different (and healthy) for myself. I am always looking to try new recipes but sometimes…

    Egg Rolls

    Hello my dears! I trust you all had a good weekend. Mine was full of resting up from my long week of traveling. AND the time change has me all messed up. I really think that it is harder for me to sleep when I know the time is changing. Not sure why…a weird quirk or something haha 😉 This weekend was my first attempt at Egg Rolls and let me tell you….they turned out FAN-EGGyROLL-TASTIC! I really had no idea what to expect because I have never made them before. Honestly? I am not even sure what possessed me to make them. But, holy NomNoms, they were so yummy.…

    Veggie Junkie

    ::sigh:: I just love vegetables. I really do! I get such a hard time from most people about loving vegetables so much, but I swear, cross my heart and hope to die, that I really, TRULY love vegetables! 🙂 My dad tells me that I was a rabbit in another life because I eat so many vegetables… maybe that is why I feel so comfortable around my bunny, hehe I wasn’t always a vegetable fan…well, OK…maybe I was just a little bit, BUT I didn’t like a wide variety of vegetables like I do now. Here is a story for you… When I was little, I ate carrots like they…
