This past fall, I had my first Bahn Mi sandwich for lunch at my favorite Pho restaurant near my house. It’s pretty much a perfect sandwich. It has rich, savory meat topped with fresh, and pickled crunchy vegetables stuffed into a baguette with mayo and cilantro. This sandwich is up there in taste value with
Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps
You won’t believe it but guess where I am? You will never guess! Bullfrog, Utah. Yep, the town of Bullfrog. I’ll tell, it’s funny where you will end up when you travel and today’s end point takes the cake with funny town names. I’ll tell you more about this trip in a future post but
Healthy Southwestern Quinoa Salad
I just realized that it’s already August 26. Wait, what? It’s Labor Day next weekend! I’m not sure where summer went, but we still have one more weekend of BBQ’s and outdoor parties before (as like to call it), go “back to school” and get back into our normal routines that include working again without
Summer Vegetable Potato Salad
I can’t believe that we are smack dab in the middle of summer. Oh, how time flies especially this summer when things have been so busy, busy, busy! Last week, I hosted a small dinner party that included my parents and my Auntie Debbie who was in town visiting from Brooklyn. I wanted to keep
Lemon Basil Chicken Salad
Oh, happy day! That time of year when light and healthy foods just sound like the only thing that you want to eat! When it’s warm out, cool foods always sound like the best thing to eat. I made this Lemon Basil Chicken Salad with that thought in mind exactly. This beautiful dish was last weeks
Asian Summer Noodle Salad
This could quite possibly be my shortest post to date. I am seriously rushing out the door to catch a flight to Barcelona as a starting point to travel to the Balearic Islands and over to Italy and ending up in Rome! I am so excited that I can hardly contain myself. I have never been
Lemony Dill Chicken Salad Club Sandwiches
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a meteorologist. I should have gone in that direction. It’s the only career that I know of where you get paid a boatload and you can completely be wrong 90% of the time! It happened again. The weather forecasters completely got the storm wrong! This time,
Cantonese Grilled Pork Asian Salad
You know that old saying, “it’s not my first rodeo”, well I was able to say “this is my first rodeo”. Yep! I actually got to see my first rodeo. Twenty six years of living in the West and I had never been. It’s kinda sacrilege in our neck of the woods. Anyway, for 16
Southwestern Chicken Salad
Truth be known, I am Heather and I am a chicken salad junkie. This week like many, I needed to make something that I could literally eat all week. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, whatever. It needed to be quick and easy. I decided to change my normal chicken salad up a bit so I added some
Greek Steak Salad
While I was driving out to Chatfield State Park (which is like 10 minuets from my house) this morning, I learned that it is Colorado Day. Who knew? Colorado celebrates it’s birthday on August 1st and this year it happens to be Colorado’s 140th birthday! Wow, I learned something new and a pleasant surprise was that
