I suppose so… SIMPLE Balsamic Glazed Shrimp and Sweet Peppers 1 Tbs. Kerrygold butter 1 lb. frozen cooked rock shrimp (baby salad shrimp) 2 cup mixed color baby sweet peppers, seeded…

Brian is obsessed with Ireland. OBSESSED. “Everything is better in Dublin,” he reminds me on a daily basis. (and read with his best Irish accent). I agree. Green pastures, open fields, and the idea of the Great Green are quite appealing. BUT, the weather – the cold, cold, COLD, weather and gray skies somewhat turn…

I realize that the title of this post is somewhat deceiving. This recipe has nothing at all to do with the commonly consumed Chinese egg roll you are envisioning at this point in time. I am working with an egg crepe, omelet, roulette of sorts. Simply bear with the name… …and focus on the radish….

I struggled to find a name for this gorgeous gem of a meal. The sweet tart zing of a lemon, the deep, rich hues of rainbow carrots, and the bright and lively green of fresh baby Brussels sprouts bring a presentation of color. and delight all together for a smorgasbord of vegetable delight. If it…

I like to start out my day with a power boost of protein. Good protein. It makes me feel better, think better, and just “be” better, I suppose. Years ago I enjoyed a hearty bowl of Mom’s homemade granola and yogurt. While the sweet crunch satisfies my need for a healthy “bite out of life,”…

Fresh. Clean. And lean. That’s the name of the game. Cilantro and lime juice lend themselves to fresh and crisp flavors, almost always. Turkey is mean and lean and feels great in the body, after working up a sweat, powering up for the day, or just in general, of course. And the addition of…
