So Monday night is bowling night in our house. We are a member of an alumni association league in the fall and spring, and then just play for fun on Mondays in the “off season”. In Riche’s old single days, that meant Taco Bell for dinner. Not being a TB fan myself, I’ve attempted […]

I also hate to waste food and since you might have some leftover tortillas from the chimichanga recipe, this is a great way to use them up as the recipe as written below […]
I LOVE Mexican food. LOVE! I also love to try and eat healthy and there the roads shall meet. Does that sound like a difficult undertaking? Not at all! I embrace the challenge of finding healthy alternatives and this is one of my favorites! (and one of my Dad’s favorites too by the way…) There’s […]
So we’ve been to the farmers market, let’s make something yummy with all of that fresh produce! Now don’t get me wrong friends… I love some good southern fried chicken but following a healthy lifestyle when it comes to nutrition is very important to me. Healthy food is yummy too!
