Yesterday I was going over some old online photo albums I have on the web. I came across this recipe I used to make ages ago. It’s totally not mine. I heard about it from my friend, Plump Kitty, who also inspired a few dessert recipes of mine as well. This one is interesting to me because it’s the one …

This recipe is one of many delicious dishes featured in Bariatric Foodie’s latest cookbook, Oodles of Zoodles: Your Jumpstart Guide to Zucchini Noodles. Check it out today! So…obviously this Noodleess Lasagna isn’t a completely new recipe. When this post was originally published (about…five-ish years ago)…trust me…it was vanguard!

Before we start, have you entered yet to win yourself a FREE canister of Click Decaf? Yes? Ok, good. Let us proceed! Look closely at that bowl of chili above. REALLY stare at it. It doesn’t look that out of the ordinary does it? Sure, it has a few more veggies than regular chili but besides that, pretty standard fare, …

Aside from the holiday, today is my late “Pop-pop’s” birthday. Manuel Fernandez was the first man I ever loved and I still miss him every day! In addition to being an awesome grandpa, he also laid the foundation to some of the recipes you guys enjoy from the blog. For instance, he taught me to make homemade pizza crust, which …

Foodies…how do I love you? Let me count the ways… Well, firstly, because you all are always on time! What do I mean by that? Well, if you haven’t heard yet, the divas and I are moving!
