How long has it been since you thought about the words “sloppy” and “joe” in the same sentence? Let me guess…sitting in your school cafeteria, singing Adam Sandler’s ballad about the lunch lady. Our own dear lunch lady at St. Mary High, Mrs. Brenda Hayden, would serve up the best homemade rolls in the world. … Continue reading
Ah, comfort food at its finest. There are few dishes that conjure up such everlovin’ childhood coziness as really yummy meatloaf. Now I’m not talking about a boring, ketchup-drenched slab of gray nothing-ness. I’m talking about a slow-cooked mixture of spices, herbs, and cheese. Then, of course, there’s a bit of ground turkey to bring … Continue reading
Zippy! That’s what my kids have dubbed this baked ziti. I wholeheartedly agree. Zippy for the kids when they taste the kick from the Rotel. Zippy for Momma when it takes only 20 minutes to throw together. Bake for another 20 and you’ve got a one-pot-meal to rival any $12 dish from your favorite Italian … Continue reading

For those of you who happen to hate hummus, this sandwich might change your mind forever. For those of you who already love hummus, this sandwich might send you into fits. Hard to believe that a couple spoonfuls of protein-rich hummus can transform a regular turkey sandwich into such a creamy, zingy stack of yumminess. … Continue reading
Who doesn’t love a good, healthy burger? Yep, that’s right…this burger is made with 93/7 ground turkey (clearly my favorite meat this week), and it gives all the flavor of our good old fashioned fatty friend, without all the grease and calories. Lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, and spices give it a great zing. Top it … Continue reading
I adore Mexican food. And margaritas. I do not, however, adore the way I feel when I walk out of a Mexican restaurant. (Margaritas notwithstanding.) So it will come as no surprise that I have concocted a bevvy of Mexican meals in my kitchen. Some healthier than others. If you want to eat what I … Continue reading
