Warm Beet Salad with Foraged Mushrooms at Dressing Room in Westport, CT

I have lived in Connecticut for over 25 years – Wow, kind of scary! I moved here right after graduate school and have raised all four of my boys in the Nutmeg State. Never in a million years would I have thought that Connecticut would be my home for so many years. My husband is…

Indian Watermelon Lime Salad Recipe

June 10, 2012 by Jeanette 25 Comments

Indian Watermelon Salad

Recently, a friend of mine hosted a homemade Indian luncheon at her home. I am a big fan of Indian cuisine, but have never been treated to such a feast as this.

Grilled Fish Tacos with Chipotle Sauce

Fish Tacos with Coleslaw and Chipotle Sauce make a healthy, delicious family-friendly meal. My kids love almost anything served taco style. I think they just like eating with their hands.

Strawberry Spinach Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing

A few weeks ago, a few of my friends and I co-hosted a Spring Ladies’ Luncheon for our church. We used to serve sandwiches and salad for these luncheons, but found that all the salad would be gone in a flash, leaving a platter full of sandwiches nearly untouched. So, over the years, we have…

The Best Tomato Bruschetta Recipe

June 1, 2012 by Jeanette 37 Comments

The Best Bruschetta

    This past week has been both exhilarating and difficult. Exhilarating because I came in #1 in Circle of Mom’s Top Foodie Mom Contest!

Berry Popsicles for Cancer

“Mommy is God’s gift”…”Mommy is more special than anyone I know.” These words from my youngest son today touched my heart in a way that I cannot explain. These words are what help keep me grounded and keep everything I do in perspective. I could soak in these words for 24 hours a day. My…

Cha Cha Bowl (Recipe for Mexican Chicken and Black Bean Rice Bowl)

May 25, 2012 by Jeanette 24 Comments

"Cha Cha Bowl" (Mexican Chicken Black Bean Rice Bowl)

One of my kids loves Chipotle Grill’s Burritos. This is a gigantic size tortilla filled with rice, beans, meat, salsa, cheese, and sour cream. Although the ingredients in and of themselves don’t sound too unhealthy, one of these burritos with all the fixings (sour cream, cheese, guacamole) tops 1000 calories! However, deconstructed and served as…

With all the Spring sports in full swing and the end of school coming soon, quick and easy dinners are even more of a necessity these days. I’ve learned how to take lots of shortcuts when I’m short on time. Lots of days, I have only 30-40 minutes to make an entire dinner for my…

Serve this Grilled Salmon with Thai Coconut Curry Sauce with Stir Fry Bok Choy and Steamed Brown Rice for a deliciously healthy meal.

Egg Free Greek Potato Salad Recipe

May 18, 2012 by Jeanette 43 Comments

Greek Potato Salad (Egg-Free)

Egg free Greek potato salad is a lighter, healthier potato salad. My oldest son returned home from his first year of college last weekend, and I’ve been a little off kilter this entire week. It feels like I’m a day or two behind…perhaps it was the five loads of laundry that he deposited on the…
