As I promised a few days ago in my post for Gluten Free Asian Cobb Salad, here’s another San-J recipe by Carol Kicinski of Simply Gluten Free. This would be a terrific gluten free dish for Meatless Monday as it’s vegetarian and vegan friendly. Also, even though Carol’s directions are to serve it hot, I bet [...]
Like most people following a gluten free diet, I have to avoid many brands of soy sauce when cooking Asian dishes since they usually contain wheat. That’s why I recommend using San-J’s tamari sauces, which are certified gluten free. But did you know that San-J also has a line of gluten free Asian salad dressings? [...]
Recipe: Anne-Marie Nichols’ Classic Cobb Salad Recipe prepared by: Anne-Marie Nichols, Photo taken by: Anne-Marie Nichols There’s nothing healthier than a chopped salad that uses lots of vegetables and lean proteins. Unfortunately, the Classic Cobb Salad means well but really is a dietary nightmare. The dish is over the top as it contains three kinds [...]

I don’t know about you, but after a holiday season of turkey, pork roast and roast beef, I’m looking forward to eating something lighter and healthier. One way to do that is by eating salads and fruits even though it’s winter time. Luckily, we can get fresh fruit like kiwi and blueberries from Chile, where [...]
The problem with making roast beef is figuring out what to do with the leftovers, since reheating overcooks and dries out the meat. Sure, you could thinly slice the roast beef for sandwiches. But my favorite way of eating leftover roast beef (or venison) is cold and in a salad. You can either thinly slice [...]
Last week my kids, Nathan and Lucie, and I flew out to Los Angeles to join several other bloggers and their families courtesy of Frigidaire. The kids were invited to cook alongside Jennifer Garner and Chef Mary Sue Millken. The event was a filmed at the world famous Smashbox Studios for the Make Time for [...]

This salad is a meal in itself and perfect for summer since asparagus and nectarines (or peaches) are in season. The recipe comes from Nancy S. Hughes book, The 1500-Calorie-a-Day Cookbook, which was sent to me by the senior editor at Diets in Review.com as a thank you for my guest post, Frozen Fruit Popsicles [...]
Summer has finally arrived in Colorado, meaning it’s hot and the AC and fans are most of the day. In this heat, the last thing I want to do is cook. Actually, I want to lie down next to one of the vents and read books all day. (I’m not good in the heat.) So [...]
Well I guess I should call this Guest Posting by Debbra S. Week, because she sent me another fabulous recipe – Roasted Corn and Grilled Shrimp. Not only does she give the Weight Watcher POINTS info, but it’s a perfect dish for summer grilling. As she writes, “This recipe appeared in Food & Wine magazine [...]
With supplements and DHA fortified milks from Horizon, there’s no excuse not to get in your Omega-3s. Another good way is fish, of course. Since some of us aren’t the biggest fish fans, a good way to disguise it is by putting it in a dish like Salad Nicoise. (I like fish, but I like [...]
