Goodbye September, let the craziness begins! October officially marks the start of the fun, albeit insanely busy time of year- not only is there excitement from the Holidays but my 3 kids have upcoming birthdays- one in October, one in November, one in December along with my birthday, and then baby #4 is due the…
Chicken Sausage, Pepper & Onion Pasta {Gluten Free}
I have to confess, I don’t care for whole wheat pasta. There is just something about the texture that I don’t like and I love all the crazy whole grains out there so it’s not a whole grain issue. Honestly I think it stems from when I was pregnant in my first trimester with my…
Slow Cooker Turkey Taco Meat + Taco Salad
I have never been a big slow cooker user, but over the last year have realized just how handy they can be. Now that our schedule has us away from home 4 evenings of the week, I am on a mission to collect good slow cooker recipes because I will have to start prepping dinner in…
Pesto Chicken Salad
Chicken salad is so personal- everyone makes their own favorite version. I have never loved a heavy-mayo based chicken salad until I had one at a wedding shower a long, long ago- it was made with fresh tarragon, celery and some other basic ingredients. Even though I have come around to mayo-based chicken salads (although…
Salmon Salad Stuffed Avocado…With a Mexican Twist
Congratulations to the winner of the Bestowed Box giveaway, Jessie J.! Salmon Salad Stuffed Avocado. I can’t remember the last time I bought a can of salmon (or tuna). I am not sure why, but it just fell off my list of staple foods. When my mom was here visiting she mentioned that she loves…
Flourless Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies ( Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)
Congratulations to Katie C. the winner of the Uncommon Goods Giveaway! I know you will enjoy the gifts as much as I did! Hi friends. It has been way too long. I am back from vacation in San Diego and totally behind schedule. I planned on blogging while I was there but I took my…
Apple Pie Baked Oatmeal
October 29th is National Oatmeal day and what better way to celebrate than with a new oatmeal recipe! We are huge oatmeal fans in this house; every variety makes an appearance in our pantry from quick cooking to rolled oats to steel cut. I have always enjoyed oatmeal but it wasn’t until I met my…
Blog Update and Roasted Vegetable Enchiladas
I am so excited for this week because I am having a little remodeling done to Nutritious Eats. It won’t be anything drastic; just a little updated and more user friendly, both for you and me. Due to the edits the site will be down Tuesday and Wednesday so don’t worry if you come by…
Cilantro-Jalapeno Hummus
I picked up a package of these The Better Chip Jalapeno flavored corn chips at the commissary a couple months ago. I fell in love- they are awesome! Little chunks of real jalapeno lace the crisp and thick corn chip. So I was super excited to receive a sampler assortment in the mail to review….
Black Bean, Corn & Poblano Tacos
I don’t think a recipe like this would have appealed to me as much if I wasn’t eating vegan for the month, but I made it a couple weeks ago and it will definitely stick around in my meal rotation. This can be vegan or vegetarian depending on whether you want the cheese and sour…
