What's Cooking in my kitchen?

Finally my first Farro idea! I have to say, I love this stuff! It's chewy and yummy and, well, fun! I tossed it with what I could find in my pantry and it made a wonderfully satisfying lunch. Filling but not heavy, tasty and quite nutrient dense. According to NutritionData.com this [...] -
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...]

thats so great that you did the medium wall! way to go, thats awesome. I wanted to ask you what do you eat when you get chinese food? I always have trouble picking because everything is pointy. I eat offten because the husband is a big fan.
how much did you brighten MY MORNING just with that upbeat title!

MizFit who can not wait until her tornado is a movie watcher, too.
(I echo sabrina with the chinese food question? Im a steamed chicken or shrimp and veggies woman. no sauce and I spritz on the BRAGGS at home)
Good morning guys!
Now, normally my go to Chinese is steamed chicken (and/or shrimp) and mixed veggies with my homemade dipping sauce. (soy sauce, ground ginger, ground red pepper and a bit of sweetener)
Last night I just ate the sushi and a bit of the husbands fried rice and chicken and broccoli.
I’ve also been known to order some of the chef specialties (anything on menu that’s not breaded really) steamed with the sauce on the side. This way they skip the oil in the cooking process. The look at me funny but they always do it!
Hi Roni,
I just wanted to respond to your fitness regimen and resultant weight gain. I joke that I’ve lost 50lbs. half of the year, and 42 the other half. When I’m in hard training for triathlon season, I can guarantee at least an 8-pound weight gain. I set my goal weight with WW to accommodate this. And it is weight, not muscle, that I gain. But dang, girl, I’m hungry, and I mean HUNGRY. I happily (well, ok, not that happily) put on those pounds to reach my peak fitness. I’ve recently been set back by pneumonia, several complications, and a 12-day hospital visit, this right in the middle of hard training for the season, which begins in early May. As a result, I’ve lost nearly 18 lbs. and I feel lousy (and, if you ask me, look lousy, too). I have no muscles, no muscle tone, my skin is baggy, and so are my clothes. Again, happily would I put that weight back to be at the top of my game. Follow your own good advice: it’s not always about the scale or the pounds, but how you feel. I think it’s great that you’ve become “that girl” as you said in one of those pithy posts of yours. Being fit and feeling good about scaling that wall is more important than a random 140.
Roni – I am enjoying your posts so much. I’ve been tinkering around with your recipes and so far they all are a hit…wanted to say that your Big Simple Chocolate Cupcakes are not only Toddler Approved, but they are also Teenager Approved and Co-Worker Approved! Made them last night and she had them for breakfast with some milk, and two of my co-workers tried them today and asked for the recipe!! Do you think that recipe will work for other cake flavors? I’m thinking of all sorts of ideas for that one…
Great comment anonymous! I wish I wasn’t so dependent on that scale. I was reading in “Health” magazine today that a guy would much prefer to date a woman that was willing to eat like she wasn’t watching the scale….but…(always the but) never gained or lost much weight. Hmmmmm not sure how that works. I guess that is how I got overweight in the first place….eating like I wasn’t watchin the scale. I just thought it was a funny thing to print. Anyway, I feel like I have to be in check with the scale to keep me accountable. Even if I know that I have my period, or am training for another triathalon. LOL I love to be driven….and for some reason the scale drives me.?
Sounds like a very productive day! After a brief hiatus I am getting back on track to lose my last pounds before the BIG b-day. I had a great day today eating all my veggies…wahoo and I walked my butt off on the treadmill last night and it is on my plans for tonight too. I will be around here more often to get some recipe ideas. Thanks for being such a great resource!!
