In the last 9 months, I have lived in 4 different apartments/houses, in 3 different cities, in 2 different states. I’ve changed my address over and over, and I’m still getting letters with 3 separate yellow address stickies layered on top of each other. I started getting sick of changing the addresses on all my…
Paprika Shrimp with Citrus Cilantro Quinoa
Today’s recipe is another one brought to you (and me) by my mom. This one didn’t come out of the McCormick cookbook she sent me, but it DID come from their website. My mom saw the quinoa and decided to pass the recipe on to me since lately I’ve had a bit of an obsession…
Grilled Pork Chops with Summer Salsa
My mom has always been known by my friends as the free food lady. I’m not sure how she feels about that, but it’s the truth! She works for a food distributing company, and her house is always FULL of samples. Full as in she has 2 deep freezers and an extra fridge, on top…
Spiced Grilled Veggies
When I shared yesterday’s Hungry-Girl inspired Greek Turkey Burgers, I mentioned that I rarely find any recipes in the daily emails that I deem worthy.

Greek Turkey Burgers with Tzatziki Sauce
As I mentioned yesterday, Nick and I spent Memorial Day weekend camping in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma. It was hot, it was buggy, and the obnoxious rednecks in the campsite next to us stayed up til 3 am yelling at each other over who lost the cap to the vodka bottle. But we were…
Mike Squared Grilled Wings {Sweet & Spicy Grilled Wings}
Today’s recipe comes jointly from 2 of the many Mikes in my life, though they didn’t collaborate on it; they don’t even know each other. I just happen to know a couple Mikes who both love and make great wings. I decided to combine both of their efforts to make something amazing. Mike Squared Grilled…
Cilantro Garlic Ribs
Everywhere I go, I’m always on the lookout for interesting recipes. Nick and I spent last weekend on vacation at the beach, in a little cottage with a bunch of his family. While there, I happened to pick up his cousin’s Better Homes and Gardens magazine. Though I’ve never subscribed myself, I’ve visited my fair…
Odds and Ends Pizza
On our way home from California this week, I bought an Every Day with Rachel Ray magazine at the airport. I rarely buy single magazines since it kills me that they cost $4 when a full year’s subscription is only $12, but after 6 flights in 10 days, I had exhausted all other forms of…
