OK, the phone totally rings during the last question and I decided to be lazy and leave it in. It was a wrong number anyway. Oh well.
OH! and I can’t get those little markers to work right now. There seems to be a glitch, sorry, I’ll add them later.

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 [...]

First of all…skip the blackberry and get an iPhone 3G. It is wonderful. And it will work well with your computer :-).
Weight Watchers has a Weight Watchers Mobile for those who subscribe online. It should be able to be picked up on a blackberry. I use it on my iPhone. It will track your points and it has a mobile point calculator. More information is available on their site.
I can also totally understand the whole secret dieting thing…I sit in an office with 3 men at work. One of them and I are kind of like brother and sister. We pick on each other a lot. Anyways…after restarting and recommitting to the program 3 weeks ago I started taking a lot of 0 pt and 1 pt snacks. One day he had the nerve to say, “You’re eating again? I thought you were trying to lose weight…” Anyways I went straight into defensive mode and probably ended up being a little rude and harsh. I picked up my baggy full of celery and cherry tomatoes and said, “Yup, there is a LOT of fat in my snacks…I better watch out!” Then he asked what was wrong and I let him know that if he did not understand the plan I was following he should not comment. I am sure I could make assumptions about him just the same way he did but I am not like that.
Sometimes I really wish people would mind their own business…ya know?

roni you are hilarious!!! you always make me laugh =D. i think it’d be cool to do an intro/exit thing for your videos…reminds me of rachael ray and her signature “hi i’m rachael ray and in the time you watch this show, i’ll have made a delicious meal from start to finish” (or something like that).
but anyway…the negative comments question totally resounded with me. i really do wish others would realize how one little comment can be HUGE for someone. i guess this is typical for parents, but whenever i came to visit from college basically the FIRST thing they would comment on was my weight, whether i had lost it or gained it. that became my main motivator: to always hear a positive comment about my weight when i visited, and i avoided/loathed visiting home whenever i did gain weight b/c i just couldn’t stand it. but now, i havent so much been affected by my parents’ DIRECT comments than other peoples’ indirect comments that suggest my over-weightness, which make me freak out. ah, comments are just hard to deal with and hard to not DWELL over, even though the commentor probably forgets about it a few seconds after saying it.

Comments made by people who are ignorant of the program are one thing. Some of them just can’t help but make silly comments. It’s when they won’t listen when you try to explain it to them that’s frustrating. There are always going to be those who choose not to learn, and we just have to realize that and can’t let them bring us down.
I’m curious to know how this morning’s run went for you. I’m starting week 5 of the C25K tomorrow, and the end of the week brings me to a 20-minute run. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Those comments are aggravating, aren’t they? Some people just can’t help it. Have to keep in mind what I can change (me) and what I can’t (other people).
Roni, Hi girl. As always a great video.

I hate those comments, the ones I hear are more like. “are you pregnant?” and I am not. I am only 5 ft tall though so even 5 pounds overweight shows on my frame. So I am constantly trying to add activity so that I will be healthy and have a good weight for my body. What bothers me even more is hearing comments made toward my hubby, I don’t like it when others say things to him that are offending!
