Below is a list of my absolute favorite recipes that I make time and time again. I love to cook and try new recipes, but I’m not the most skilled chef, so the majority of these are quick, easy, and don’t require too many or hard-to-find ingredients. Enjoy!

I love your simple recipes. Still really want to try the shaved brussels & leak recipe, and I’m always a fan of your desserts.

Did you have a Quinoa salad recipe on here a little while ago? I could have sworn I saw one, but now can’t!

When you have links embedded in all your posts, could you please fix it so that it opens in a new window? It always just opens and replaces your window, so I forget where I originally was. Thanks.

Hey! These recipes all look awesome, especially the loaded baked potato chicken salad. I was wondering how many servings the recipe makes?

Reply

It was about 4 servings for Mal and me.

I recently discovered your blog and love it! I also recently discovered I have a mild allergy to bananas. Do you have any recommendations for a banana substitute in your breakfast recipes? I’m always looking for healthy/quick breakfast ideas, but so many include bananas. I especially love protein shakes since they’re a quick and portable option to bring to work, but again, need a good protein shake recipe without bananas (which most include). Thanks! Jessica

How about mashed sweet potato?

Hey Tina!
Am I crazy or did you have some sort of recipe for like a tuna patty or tuna cake ? I swear I saw one either on the recipe page or in a post at one point. If so, can you give me the link again? Thanks a bunch!

I also love cooking and looking through other peoples recipes. For me it’s been really hard to find a diet I can stick to. I find when I label myself, vegan, paleo, ect as soon as I do, I get off track. And with having a blog I feel guilty about not sticking to one thing. It’s hard to find what’s right for you! I think I’m on track to a good balance.

Tina, I have your book (from awhile ago) and just came to your blog. I often make your oatmeal with the peanut butter and wheat berries, which I’d never even TRIED before (the wheat berries, I mean). I am now wondering if you’re doing a more gluten-free, wheat-free diet, lately. I’ve just started reading “Wheat Belly” and it’s too early to make up my mind about it or, for that matter, if I could even stick with a program such as this. What are your thoughts? Sorry if you’ve addressed this issue already; I’m new to your blog. Thanks!

Tina March 29, 2013 at 12:28 am

I haven’t read the book. Sorry! Maybe talk to your doctor or an RD?

I love your recipes and use them all the time. I’ve got IBS and am looking into starting to juice. Can you add some of your favorite juice recipes?!

I am so happy to find your blog page and all of the recipes. I just recently found out about being Gluten Intolerant and Lactose intolerant and many other foods am allergic from. So getting set up now to start cooking the right way for myself and my husband. I love your site. It will be very helpful to me through my trials of learning to cook all over again!!
