5-Ingredient Breakfast BARS with FREE Mix!
These are DELICIOUS and backed with protein. If I am going to eat breakfast (some days I do fast) it’s going to be REAL food not a “breakfast bar” of carbs and nuts. That is not sustance for me personally.
These breakfast bars not only have 12 grams of protein (not from nuts), it’s also high in fat that will keep you full! This recipe is a great way to try my FREE PARMESAN Mix (see this post for more details)….
Bacon-Fried Green Beans
Yes, I said bacon fried green beans! I probably could have said bacon fried celery and you would have still opened up the recipe! 😉 This is such an easy dish. The key is to “fry” but not burn the green beans. Fresh-frozen green beans can be used but I prefer fresh. They have a…

Say Happy Father’s Day with this Delicious Chocolate Cheesecake! Yes, I said SUGAR FREE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE!!! My 3 favorite foods, Chocolate, Cheese and Cake!!

Easy Cajun Chicken Cordon Bleu
I am not a big fan of chicken breast! Actually, I really dislike them! I am on the cusp of using the word “hate”! They are usually always dry and not satisfying to me due to their lack of fat. I prefer the dark meat, particularly thighs because they are so succulent and tasty. Well, this recipe…

Melissa’s 60-Second Frosty
Who hasn’t eaten a Frosty or two? I have had my share of Wendy’s sugary concoction but I will no longer buy them instead, I will make my own, the no sugar, all natural version. A small Frosty from Wendy’s is 300 calories which comes from the 50 grams of carbohydrates or SUGAR! Small Original…
Tomato Basil Soup
Who says you can’t have soup in the summer (or when it is May and 90 something degrees outside!) I just love tomatoes and fresh basil I love making Tomato Bail Soup. I usually serve it warm but for tonight, I think I will serve it chilled. I got hooked on La Madeline’s soup when I moved…
90-Second Strawberry-Coconut Soft Serve
Coconut and strawberries, the perfect combination. I love ice cream and I have made it every way known to man. Well, at least know to me! Hand churned is way too much work. It’s a pain in the you know what to get the big ice cream maker out and have to deal with rock…

Bacon-Broccoli Salad
After a trip to Baton Rouge’s Red Stick Farmer’s Market, I always leave with fresh produce, pecans and great raw cheeses! Some of my favorite veggies are: tomatoes, cauliflower and last but not least, broccoli. I love broccoli! It doesn’t have to be cooked and covered with cheese to taste good although that would have…
Salmon Burger with Lemon Mayo
I love salmon! Unfortunately, it is so expensive so we don’t eat it fresh that often. Growing up, we never had fresh salmon but we ate plenty of salmon patties. This recipe came about today as I was wondering what my son and I were going to eat for lunch because I sent the leftovers…
Coconut-Chipotle Chicken Stew (DF)
This is one of my favs! It’s quick and it’s tasty, the latter being the most important! This is also a Dairy-Free recipe. I intended to cook this recipe in the crock pot but I still can’t find it from the move so I just started it on top of the stove by…

Psych-You-Out Triple Mac & Cheese
Yes, I did it! I have gone where no one has gone before….

The macaroni and cheese my mom used to make was simple. Macaroni…
Pineapple-Basil Smoothie
You have got to try this!!! Probably not what you think of when you want a smoothie but I have found that basil pairs very well with so many different fruits, especially pineapple! This recipe was inspired by a Pineapple-Basil Gelato I had years ago at Whole Foods. Since then I have used basil…
Melissa’s Sandwich Buns
Finally, a grain free bread that holds up to your favorite sandwich! Like most people, I LOVE BREAD!!!! It is such a convenience food! Growing up my dad used to say that you can “jam” anything in between 2 pieces of bread and call it a meal. We did this with everything from tomatoes, bananas,…
Blueberry-Lemon Muffins (or Scones)
I used the scone/biscuit version and scooped onto cookie sheet to make these.The golden color came from fresh eggs! I have always considered pastries for breakfast as a treat, something that I would maybe only do on vacation or a business trip. Unfortunately, after I have eaten them and got my one minute of…

Homemade Almond Milk
If you told me 6 months ago I would be drinking almond milk much less making it I would have told you that stuff is for the birds! Well, apparently I am eating with the birds now. 😉 Not really, but I am loving some almond milk! I usually by the unsweetened stuff in the refrigerator section…
