We love to cook with couscous because it has a great flavor and cooks up so quickly. Use chicken stock in place of the water when cooking for added flavor. This is a simple, summery salad recipe using couscous and traditional Mediterranean flavors. You will need couscous, cucumber, roasted red pepper, fat free feta, pine…
Mexican Chocolate Loaf
I was recently craving some sort of sweet bread for breakfast like a good cinnamon roll or yummy marble bread when I came across a recipe for Mexican Chocolate loaf using a basic sweet-roll dough that can be used for several different sweet pastry recipes. I thought to myself Mexico goes together with chocolate like…
Banana Split Cheesecake
A well known fact about me – I love ice cream. So much that before we started really eating healthy, I once bought 4 gallons of Blue Bell ice cream when it went on sale for $2.49 each. One of my favorite Blue Bell flavors is the banana split. If I did not control myself,…

(sort of like that scene in Ratatouille) I LOVE that movie, and not just because the chef’s name is Remy. I’m off on a tangent. Back to…
Grilled Corn Salad
Summertime. It’s really hot. Summertime also means grilling out a lot (at least in my house it does). Burgers, hot dogs, pork chops, veggies, fish, etc. So how about a crisp, smoky, cool salad to go along with those juicy burgers? Instead of the ole stand by of corn on the cob… This is super…
Buttermilk Pie
Back with a vengeance!!! We’re mostly settled in the new home. So awesome that our closing/moving date was on the 2nd hottest day on record in Knoxville. High of 104…and we’re moving a truckload of furniture. AND the A/C in the U-Haul was out. Guess who had heat rash at the end of the day?…
