Have you ever thought to make Blackberry Oat Muffins? I haven't before, but I sure am glad I tried it! YUM!! One of my favorite parts of summer is all the fresh berries in season. I have always loved raspberries and strawberries but the last few years I have wandered over to the dark side, with a new favorite... blackberries. I can buy them year round at my local Costco, but this time of

Lime and Coconut Chicken
I've been experimenting with some new chicken marinades this summer. Some have been awesome and others just okay. One was downright terrible! Oh, but this Lime and Coconut Chicken is wonderful! A home run in my book. I know the ingredients seem to be kind of a funny combination, but don't let it throw you off. The marinade really comes together fast, and the result is unique and totally
Quinoa For Breakfast
Have you ever had quinoa for breakfast (pronouced "kin wah") ? Well , I recently tried it and I am LOVING a bowl of quinoa in the morning! This is such a great way to start your day for many reasons. First, if you are a hot cereal fan quinoa is fun change from regular old oatmeal. Also, we have all heard the importance of starting your day off with some sort of protein to keep your blood sugars
Kalua Pork
Kalua pork is a serious favorite around our house. If you haven't tried it yet, you've just got to... and soon! My mom made this from time to time growing up, and I loved it... but I had kind of forgotten about it until my own family moved in next to a Hawaiian family five years ago. The Wongs have thrown a Luau from time to time, and my husband and I fell in love with their Kalua pork. After
The Perfect Boiled Egg
We love eggs at our house and it them in a variety of ways. Lately I have been keeping a bag of these perfect boiled eggs in the fridge to be enjoyed as a quick breakfast (we like it mashed with a fork with salt, pepper and butter and warmed in the microwave), on a salad or a simple snack. For some reason making good hard boiled eggs was a mystery for me! I know that it doesn't seem like there
Lemon Grilled Chicken
This is the BEST marinade. We've had it on the site forever under other recipes like Pesto Chicken Pizza with Pinenuts and Chicken Poppyseed Salad, but somehow it never made it on the site on its own. And this marinade definitely deserves its own post. Not only is it awesome as the main dish, it is perfect on "throw together" pizza, salads, paninis/sandwiches, and in pasta. It is so so so
Buttermilk Ranch Dressing
This Buttermilk Ranch Dressing is my favorite dressing to dip crisp veggies in, drizzle over salads and my boys even dip their pizza crusts in it. It comes from the Betty Crocker cookbook I got for a wedding gift. It is not called ranch in the cookbook, but that is exactly what it is. I am telling you, once you try this recipe and see how quick it is to make, you will NEVER buy that 'ranch' they
