Easy Pad Thai {with Spaghetti Squash}
Pad Thai is my go-to Thai take-out dish. I love everything about it. Traditionally this is a noodle dish and who doesn’t love noodles, especially when they are stir-fried with eggs! Yum!! Today I decided to lighten it up a bit, so I substituted roasted spaghetti squash “noodles” for the classic rice noodles. Results. Two thumbs up in this house.

Fattoush Salad
This salad. This Fattoush Salad is flavor love. I was working hard to use ingredients already on hand. I may be a bit out of control. Pantry and freezer doors are…busting. So I went on offense and typed pita, lettuce, mint, tomato into my search engine field. Kabam!!! Pow!! Fattoush!

BBQ Chicken Pizza Dip
It’s football season, officially Autumn Thyme and we’ve dipped into the low 60’s here in the sunny south. I for one am ready for fall. Bring on apples, pumpkins, soups, stews, chili, comfort food and game day recipes, preferably in the form of hot dips. Hot dips like BBQ Chicken Pizza Dip.

Savory Egg Stuffed Poblano Peppers
I lay in bed Sunday morning pretending to be asleep. There was a steady rain tapping on the window, the kind that lulls you to sleep. It was not my morning to get up with the dogs (yet if I were already awake when the first bark came would it seem only reasonable that I take them out, even though I did the day before). These are my words, we’re not really score keepers. I justified my silent stillness by creating recipes in my mind. Savory Egg Stuffed Poblano Peppers nestled on a bed of enchilada sauced white beans. I did not take the dogs out.

Avocado & Chicken Salad Boats with hints of lime, cumin and cilantro. This delicious plate could easily become my new favorite lunch. The mashed avocado replaces mayonnaise in this recipe, lending numerous healthy benefits.

Thai Basil Egg White Omelet Bowl
Most days, whether at home or the office I’ll have an Egg White Omelet Bowl for breakfast. A bed of spinach (getting my calcium anywhere I can), a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of fresh herbs and scallions, and an egg white omelet packed with herbs. Today, my herb of choice was Thai Basil which is thriving in our Aero Garden presently. This Thai Basil Egg White Omelet Bowl fits in so nicely with my Healthy Choices plan.

Avocado, Cilantro & Lime Farro Salad {with Fresh Veggies}
Avocado, Cilantro & Lime Farro Salad {with Fresh Veggies}. I must admit I’ve become a bit smitten with Farro. I was studying the bulk bins at my local Whole Foods Market looking for something different. I was charged up to discover that Farro is packed with goodness.

Apache Bread Dip
We fell in love with Apache Bread Dip from the moment we were first introduced. What’s not to love about a hot ham & cheese dip served in a crusty bread bowl. If you’re lucky enough to score an Italian loaf in the shape of a football, while you might as well serve this dip on Game Day!!
