One of the things I will miss most about moving is our monthly Bunco group. It’s such fun girls night out and so convenient because most of us live on post so we aren’t driving more than a few miles. We each bring a dish to share, booze and a $10 gift to exchange after…
The Best Vegetarian Chili
Before I talk about this recipe, I have to share some exciting news! Nutritious Eats is moving to Seattle, Washington!! We will be there in less than 3 months and will hopefully get settled into our new home right away. When it’s time for a new job in the military it can often be a…
Chocolate Oatmeal and the Benefits of Soluble Fiber

Apple, Feta salad with a Garlicky Lemon Vinaigrette
I hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving! We sure did. We stuffed our faces, enjoyed the beautiful Hawaii beaches and were thankful. I was very thankful this year for stuffing and the turkey (that I didn’t cook !). Be ready though, I plan on doing a lot of cooking next month to get you prepared…
