I'll admit it. I used to hate hashtags. And then I got Twitter. And then Instagram. And then I got sucked in. I am not a crazy hashtagger, but I do use my fair share of them. And because I am feeling rather lazy today, I am going to revert to my new friend- #thehashtag- for this [...]

#WIAW: April 30, 2014 + Mexican Black-Eyed Pea and Barley Salad

Well that is a mouthful, now isn't it? The truth is, I could not leave out a single word from the title because you need to know that it contains chocolate, peanut butter, and oatmeal. And if you are like me, then you associate the phrase "breakfast bake" with "easy make-ahead breakfasts," which are my favorite kind [...]
And the longest blog post title award goes too... ...this girl! Not only did I just make up a fake award (anything to win something, right?), but I am also about to share with you an incredibly long, random, and all over the place post. Bear with me as I attempt to put some organization into [...]
Is there anything prettier than Mexican food? Okay, maybe I should be more specific... Is there anything prettier than Mexican food that contains a plethora of fresh Spring and Summertime vegetables? Yeah, I didn't think so. If you are familiar with my recipes or spend some time purusing my blog, it will come as no surprise [...]
It is official. I am not the greatest at remembering to take pictures of my food for WIAW posts. And when I do remember, I hardly ever take my WIAW pictures ON Wednesday. That is so wrong, right? Last week I featured my Thursday eats and this week I am featuring my Tuesday eats. I seem to [...]
Lots of treating has been going on in CEVG land. Lots of treating for me, that is. I tend to try to save a lot of my money as opposed to being a big spender (except when it comes to food- no surprise there), but over the past week I definitely splurged in a big [...]
Chinese food...on pizza? I know, I know. To some it may sound like a strange combination. But if you are adventurous and cool different like me, then you just might look at this combination and think..."hmm, now that is something that I need to try!" Naturally, as I often do when I sit down at my dinner table [...]
Nachos for breakfast? Oh yes. I went there. Several months ago I shared a recipe with you for sweet breakfast nachos. Sweet is good. Sweet and savory is good. But this time, these are all about the savory. Scrambled Breakfast Nachos Serves 1 Ingredients olive oil cooking spray 2 corn tortillas fine sea salt 1 egg [...]
It's Wednesday! Who is excited? I know, I know... it's not Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. But, it is also not Monday or Tuesday, so that is something to be happy about. Another thing to be happy about is the topic of food. Food and nutrition talk both make me happy and could literally take up [...]
There are just some sandwiches that I cannot forget. Some sandwiches that I cannot get off of my mind. At one point in my life, one of those sandwiches was a barbecue pulled pork sandwich. Now I have not eaten pork in over two years, but what I have eaten is my own take on [...]
