Courtesy of What Would Jessica Eat. Pancakes are at the top of my “all-time favorite breakfast” list, but they are something I very rarely take the time to make. I actually kind of like that though, because it makes having them feel like a special occasion.This week I hit an personal mileage record, running (and [...]
This soup is easy to make and extremely versatile. Feel free to substitute any vegetables that you have on hand, though the tomatoes are a must. Packed with vitamins, full of flavor, and very filling, it’s the perfect meal on a cold day. I prefer to assemble this soup in the slow cooker either on [...]
Appears courtesy of Fact: This Blog is Awesome. I haven’t chatted about this on here yet so why not today. On January 3rd 2011 I made a plan to lose weight and get healthy. So working out and eating well has been very important to me this past year. I did really well this year. [...]
Appears courtesy of Little Girl Big Eyes. At last, the pumpkin, cinnamon, baked apple spice goodness of the September Through November months begins to come to a close – not so fast! This hype has earned enough glory to stay put well into December (or even longer). Dare we drink a steaming hot spiced apple [...]
Herb infused olive oil?!! YES! I don’t know how I came up with that idea (although, I can probably attribute it to dating an artist and wanting to make something for our families this year) but as soon as it crossed my mind, I knew I absolutely had a winner! It’s a great gift idea because you can [...]
Have you ever been to an Asian restaurant (PF Changs) where the menu showcases a lettuce wrap? This usually has a crisp pile of bib lettuce leafs along with chicken and what I believe to be fried rice noodles. Served with a variety of sauces. I have been wanting to do something along those lines [...]
A Vegan burger recipe can be found everywhere but I love to cook. Spending hours in the kitchen is not a problem for me. Dicing, chopping, sauteeing…..these are all words that make music in my mind but I also know that not everybody is like me. People want to get into the kitchen and get [...]
I went grocery shopping last night and was sooo excited to see bell peppers on sale- finally! I picked up lots of colors and was browsing the web to see what fun recipes I could find to use peppers and wheat berries. I was pleasantly surprised to see this recipe on Alive Magazine website ! [...]

The following recipe appears courtesy of Linday Cotter of Cotter Crunch Trick AND Treat Corn Muffins Yes, I said trick AND treat, not OR treat. WHY? Because these muffins trick you with a hidden vegetable yet treat you with Nutella and Marshmallows. YUM! (pic above- batter before oven baked) Ingredients: 1 cup cornmeal [...]

Appears courtesy of My Food ‘N’ Fitness Diaries. If any of you know me well, you know that I LOVE this little combo. Or if you just know what’s good in life, you should know that the combination of peanut butter and banana is simply perfect. By itself… on toast… in oatmeal… and my discovery [...]
Recently MattyO of Stay Strong and Positive was having a twitter conversation regarding Sweet Potatoes and I had to chime in with my recipe for sweet potato-amole or sweet potatamole. What is that you are asking yourself aren’t you? It is essentially a smashed sweet potato that has avocado mixed into it. In my attempt to [...]
When I lived in New York one of my buddies would call me approximately every 2 months and without saying hello would say: Paella Time. This was code for I’m making it this weekend so stop eating and be sure to bring your hunger. He made one of the best paella’s I ever ate, and [...]
Appears courtesy of Aimee of I Tri To Be Me. Fall season is around the corner so I’m sure we shall see the return of the Pumpkin Latte at Starbucks or your favorite coffee shop. I really like the drink, but I could do without spending the money. I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and [...]
As an endurance athlete you train for hours on end and burn endless amounts of energy (ie. calories.) I’ll did the Boise Ironman 70.3 race in early June. It’s a race where you swim 1.2 miles, ride your bike 56, and then run 13.1 miles all in one day. So, the last few weeks have [...]
Courtesy of Lindsay of Cotter Crunch Raw Blondies Have you ever had Tropical Traditions Coconut Peanutbutter? Let me just say, my husband and I put a MAJOR dent in jar in just the 24 hours we had it before we left for vacation.. It is so good that the hubs and I were fighting over who got the spoon. I tried [...]
Appears courtesy of Aimee of I Tri To Be Me Vegetarian Tex-Mex (Fajitas and Edamole) Fajitas: Although these require some marinating time, once that’s done, these cook up super fast and are super yummy! Another great thing about this recipe, is you can basically use whatever veggies you have on hand. It’s the spices that [...]
Peanut Butter Jelly is not just for kids. If you have followed me on my blog, Twitter or Facebook account for even one day you will know that I am a lover of all things Nut Butter and Jelly/Jam. You will also know that I don’t just like status quo (that’s boring.) So for me [...]
Homemade Instant Oatmeal The last time we went camping, we brought along store bought instant oatmeal packets for our breakfast. I was looking at them thinking there had to be a way to make these, AND make them healthier. A little Google searching gave me tons and tons of results! So, when my husband [...]
Since football season here in the United States is about to kick off I wanted to get back in the habit of making chicken wings for Sunday afternoons. Well, since I am now a vegetarian that would seem almost impossible. That is until I looked at my recipe books and found Buffalo Tempeh in Appetite [...]
Appears courtesy of Aimee of I Tri To Be Me. I have been craving chocolate like crazy!! Chocolate chip cookies? Yes, please! Thin mint frozen yogurt? Yes, please! Spoonfulls of peanut butter covered in chocolate chips? Yes, please! While I haven’t been going crazy with this chocolate stuff, I have let myself indulge a couple [...]
After returning from an amazing week of wining and dining on vacation, this healthy living blogger was in serious need of some dietary re calibration. Fortunately for me, I had the promise of some help in that department waiting for me: Thrive Foods: 200 Plant-Based Recipes for Peak Health. This is the 3rd book in the [...]
In my days as a carnivore and living in New York there was nothing like that hole in the wall Italian joint that could make a meatball parmigiana hero that was just perfection. If done right you could eat the meatball parm with a glass of wine even though it was just a sandwich. The [...]
Oftentimes, simple is best. I am learning that the best recipes – and most successful Test Kitchen Tuesdays – are those that revolve around very simple ideas and flavor combinations. So, when I stumbled upon this idea for Teriyaki Chickpeas over at The Happy Herbivore, I had a good feeling it would go over well with 2Chili. [...]
Appears courtesy of Jessica Allen from Blonde Ponytail. I was ready to make a salad and though about Tabbouleh salad, so I went and got all the ingredients together. For those of you that don’t know what tabbouleh is allow me to explain. Tabbouleh is a salad that is traditionally made with bulgur, tomato, cucumber, finely chopped parsley and [...]
