Seafood Chowder I first had this amazing seafood chowder (well a similar version of it) at a friends house a few months ago. Seafood chowder was a meal that I guess I had never really had before. I like seafood quite a lot and so I was looking forward to trying something new! I couldn’t quite put my finger on why, but it was one of the most delicious meals I had ever had! We had some great conversation and some good wine. But I couldn’t stop thinking about that…

These chicken bowls are so delicious they will please the whole family. They…
I just love a good salad! I don’t know about you but I truly love a good salad. This Crispy Chicken Salad is delicious! Summer is ending now and there is an amazing harvest of tomatoes, so I wanted to find a new way to use my tomatoes. This salad definitely hit the spot. I love the fresh flavor of cilantro and the creaminess of avocado! Avocados have so many amazing benefits! They are loaded with fiber and tons of healthy monounsaturated fats! I also love the flavors of Parmesan…
Salmon Cakes These Salmon Cakes are so amazingly delicious. The sweet potatoes give them a really nice sweet flavor. They are a little higher in fat than some of my other recipes, but that is because it is salmon! Salmon is packed with the amazing omega-3 fatty acids that are so good for your heart! They also reduce inflammation and can help prevent other chronic diseases like diabetes. I never used to like fish, but lately I am finding so many wonderful recipes to incorporate it more into our weekly…
