Greetings from a new home base!! We officially U-Hauled it from Durango up to Denver and everything made it in one piece. Except our bodies. Moving yourself is freakin' hard. But that's done for now! Thank the lawd. So I'm giving my body a little rest by sitting down, propping my feet up, and bringing you this yum-tastic frittata recipe. Is it sad that as good as it is my favorite part of this recipe is the salad?? The herb-y salad dressing … [Read more...]
Memorizing Amino Acids
Essential, conditional, non-essential, oh my! So many amino acids to memorize. As I've been studying for my registered dietitian (RD) exam, I've come across some helpful ways of remembering things on other sites whether RDs, med students, professors, you name it. I appreciate these resources and wanted to add to the deck. I decided today to share how I remember the amino acids (AA) for the exam so that others too can use this trick as a … [Read more...]

(Don't forget the rest of the post below the video!) … [Read more...]
Creamy Avocado Basil Sauced Spaghetti
Avocados are oh so trendy. I really feel like they're "cool". Eating them, taking pictures of them... it's like a universally loved and accepted food right now. I really feel like if an avocado was in high school, she'd win homecoming queen. So hot right now. They're everywhere: mashed straight up (with a 'lil salt of course) on toast, in guacamole (obbbviously), baked with an egg cracked inside, in smoothies, in faux chocolate pudding, or … [Read more...]

Just look at that juicy goodness. Sometimes I see delicious recipes in magazines that I want to make. Like this one. So before you go all cray on me, take a deep breath.

Grilled Pizza Brava
Grilling pizza. Wow, what an addition of flavor to pizza I can't describe. You've GOT to try this. Because I was making pizza dough by hand for the first time, I watched this very helpful video from Food Network. If you're uneasy about making your own dough this will be very helpful and put you at ease! I used the same method in the video. What I liked the most was that I could do it all by hand! I didn't need a mixer. The video doesn't … [Read more...]
Should you be among those avoiding gluten?
Gluten, gluten, gluten! Such a hot topic these days. I thought it would be a good idea to address the gluten issue. This post should help you to understand what gluten is, what types of adverse reactions people can have to it, and what testing for adverse gluten reactions looks like. Hopefully by the end of it, you will have a better idea as to whether or not you should be among the growing group of people who go gluten-free! Simply … [Read more...]
Intern Quinoa Salad with Pan Seared Salmon and Balsamic Greens
Prepare yourself. Might be one of my most fav food pics I've taken! If that pic doesn't make you want to eat this you might be blind. What you see above isn't even the completed dish, but it certainly could be a meal on its own! (All that's missing from the recipe is the salmon on top.) If you're fan of plant-based/vegan food, eat your heart out! (Just sub your favorite liquid sweetener in for the 1 teaspoon honey that's in the balsamic … [Read more...]
Kim’s 2-Ingredient Mango Ice Cream
Two ingredients. Frozen mango + coconut cream = the most delicious, creamy, refreshing, amazing, ice cream that's just basically screaming "summatime!!!!" But first let's play a little game. Which one of these is not like the others? Really hard, I know. A bunch of short Italians (four of my cousins with my aunt and uncle) and then this tall, gorgeous, fair skinned, light haired beauty! Well that beauty is Kim. … [Read more...]
