Adventures in Healthy Eating
Kale, Turkey and Black Bean Taco Filling is the most requested taco filling recipe I’ve posted. In celebration of Taco Tuesday tomorrow, I am resharing. Taco Tuesday is sacred in my house, especially since the 8-Year-old is obsessed. It’s the only thing he gets excited about besides mac&cheese! The following was originally posted in October…
Plantain Hash with Leftover Turkey is a super fun way to transform holiday leftovers. First, have I told you about my plantain obsession. It started with store-bought plantain chips. I bought them to go along with a recipe and fell in love. Then I started researching and learned they are just starchy, less-sweet bananas, and…
I am continuing my soup obsession with this Simple Sweet Potato Soup. I have so much turkey broth from Christmas that I’m using it as inspiration. Plus, it’s the last day of break. So, I decided to have a little fun in the kitchen before I head back to work. Our house is still in…
I’m soup-obsessed at the moment, so I’m going through my archives. Vegetarian Lentil Soup With Pumpkin is a repost from 2014 that I will be making for lunches as I get ready to go back to work. In unrelated news, I’m celebrating my break from Facebook. The GreenLiteBites FB page is still active, but I…
Introducing Meatball and White Bean Soup with Kale! This week is unseasonably warm here in Maryland. It’s like 55 degrees out. It’s crazy! That’s not stopping my winter soup obsession, however. I made my first ever batch of vegetable broth from all my stuffing scraps which I turned into a fabulous pot of Minestrone for…
Trying a new video technique! I have been trying to get back into GreenLiteBite videos forever but every attempt at recreating how I used to do it back in the day has failed. So, I decided to try a new way. For this video, I recorded clips while I cooked dinner and then edited them…

It’s the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and I’m still in a food coma. I could not be more proud of my Thanksgiving dinner this year. I made a 26.5-pound bird, and it came out perfect! But I’m not here to talk turkey! (I’ve already done that with literally everyone I’ve seen — my friends must be…

I’m totally backlogged with recipes and Thanksgiving isn’t helping! Oh! And click here to check out the behind-the-scenes on my personal blog.
Hey! Remember me? I can’t believe how long it’s been since I posted. Some times I really miss the old bogging days, but if I’m frank, I’m just too busy to think about it at the moment. Teaching full time at Community College is more than a time-consuming job. It’s sometimes emotionally and intellectually draining….
