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 [...]

You look awesome Roni and you are so bubbly and happy! It looks like you are ready for this baby, the room is adorable.
Wishing you well!
Love the update!!! Great room!!! you belly is beautiful!!! Take and rest!!!
We had a car exersaucer as well and I LOVED it! How awesome that she kept everything and now Evan will get to use it(that is my favorite part about having boys, pictures of them at the same age in the same stuff).
You are definitely all belly! And you look great!
Remember when I said you didn’t even look pregnant?? I think I’ll take that back now :) You’re shinning!
Yup there’s maternity underwear! I had some! ;) You look great – I will miss these updates! ;)
D
You look wonderful Roni. It is so much fun watching your weekly updates. I can’t believe that you are already 35 weeks!
Hey Roni! Both of my boys had tons of hiccups toward the end as well and it always amused me, too. So funny! I was wondering if you have considered doing a belly cast?? I didn’t and wish I would have. You’re looking GREAT!
Lay Down My Idols – I’m thinking of turning these into weigh in videos post baby. I have too much fun blabbing to the camera. ;)
I never thought of a cast.. I’ll do some digging!
Roni–I am a long time follower/lurker. I don’t post comments very often at all… but anyway, I just wanted to tell you that you are glowing! You and that baby belly are just beautiful! In fact, so much that I really, absolutely can’t wait until I am pregnant again (we aren’t trying yet, but I have baby fever bad!). I loved being pregnant with my first 2 sons even though they were BIG babies (10lb 10oz, 2 weeks over due and 8lb at 5 weeks early!). Anyway, just wanted to tell you how great you’re looking and how inspiring you are… thanks!
Its exciting watching you grow and cant wait to meet the baby. Glad your doing great.
You finally look super pregnant!! Still so small for 35 weeks! But like you said before, with the tummy tuck that seems like it would be expected! I love the idea of the weigh ins, I’m gonna miss these updates too ;) But… it will be so fun to see baby!! Take care!
I love ask Roni!!!
You look fantastic!! Your belly is great. I can understand that you are out of breath, he is sitting so high!! But let me tell you, if you think that´s a huge belly, you should see my pictures…….. People asked me if I was having twins. Both times……. Sort of goes in the family, I think :)
With both of my pregnancies, I wanted to be done w/ everything by 36 weeks just b/c I wanted that last month to have our weekends to chill and relax and just spend time together before the chaos of a new baby. I had to have my bag packed and by the door too–just in case (although I was induced w/ both of mine).
Are you doing maternity photos? I HIGHLY recommend them…especially if you are sure this is your last baby. It is so neat to have those pictures hanging in baby’s room and then to tell him later on that it’s him in your belly. Such precious memories. :)
And yes there are maternity underwear…I had some! But regular, bigger size works just as well too!!
I am so excited for you. You look great!!! You make me want another baby!!! Although we aren’t officially done yet, we are done…for now. That is subject to change though too.
Isn’t 40 weeks considered full-term?
Either way, yay you! :)
Nope.. actually 36 weeks…. well the end of. I believe 37-42 is “Full term” as in baby is fully developed and just gaining fat cells.
The nursery is gorgeous! You guys really did a great job.
I’m so excited for you. You look great and its so nice to see you feeling good!
Roni, I used to follow you years ago when I was doing WW, and then sadly I stopped and the weight found its way home. Bu I’m BAAACK!
You look amazing! I don’t think your belly is that big at all, you look great! Good luck, I guess with the blue, it’s a boy? I had 2 boys and then the princess girl. Go for the third!!!
Roni,
You really look great! You will go back to a ‘normal’ size quickly. I’m so excited for you and your family. God Bless!
