Adventures in Healthy Eating
I’ve been swamped with work since the start of the semester. It’s crazy! That said, I’ve been trying to post some of my cooking adventures on IG. It might be some time until I post a new recipe. So, here’s a Vintage GreenLiteBites idea someone recently requested. (Sorry it took so long!) Originally Posted October…
The first video I was hired to do for McCormick is up and I’m ecstatic! I’ve done some crazy stuff in my life but this was, by far, one of my favorite experiences. It was so freakin’ fun! I hope you like it. Interested in the recipe for Cucumber Tomato and Onion Salad? Check it…
Sorry for the short hiatus! School started this week so I’ve been feverishly preparing for classes while balancing the kids who don’t go back until next week. Needless to say, it’s been a 3-ring circus around here. I’m just popping in real fast to share the newest most requested Vintage GreenLiteBites recipe, Roasted (Wish They…
The Husband and I are kid-less this week (they are visiting Grandma!) so I planned some fun Date-Night-In style dinners for us. Asian-Inspired Short Ribs was my first. A few months ago I made short ribs for the first time following a recipe I found on Cooking Light. This time I ventured on my own…

Once I got back from my third and final vacation of the summer — more on that soon over on my personal blog — I couldn’t wait to get back to my kitchen. Traveling and cooking are my absolute two favorite things to do. One day, it’s all I hope to be doing. Anyway, this…
I originally posted this precisely 5-years ago today on July 31, 2014! Mom did it again and dropped off a zucchini the size of a baseball bat. I love it! Zucchini is one of my favorite vegetables because it’s so versatile and makes a great recipe bulker, increasing serving sizes of things like chili without…
A few months ago, I picked up my first bagged salad kit. You know the ones, with the dressing and toppings all included? Well, I immediately fell in love with the first one I tried. It’s called Sunflower Crunch, and it includes a sweet onion dressing, bacon bits, and sunflower seeds. It was delicious! However,…
Guys, I’ve been sitting on this recipe for over a week! It’s been a crazy month, and there’s no sign of it slowing down any time soon. The kids are home, we had our annual week at the beach, we hosted a 4th of July BBQ, celebrated my Mom’s birthday, and The Husband and I…
After reposting The Red, White, and Blue Sweet Summer Salad folks immediately asked for my homemade poppy seed dressing, so I decided to whip up a batch for a quick photo. A few years ago, I stopped using store-bought dressings. Nothing really against them, I just like the taste and flexibility of fresh better. I…
