Garlic Butter Shrimp “Linguini” With Zoodles
That day-after-Christmas food hangover… you know the one. Too much cheese. Too many crackers. Pie up to your eyeballs. Potato casserole. Spiked egg nog. All of the goodies. Back on track today. With a fridge full of leftovers. I opened my fridge, overwhelmed with what was left, and just wanted something light & simple. So I grabbed the leftover shrimp from the shrimp cocktail. Some veggies from the veggie tray. The zucchini that never got roasted as planned, and some Parmesan cheese from the au gratin potatoes. 5 minutes later- a light, healthy lunch happened. And it happened to be delicious! Low carb. Light. Full of protein & veggies. Enjoy!…

Best Fish Tacos Ever
My dad is a carnivore. He is the grillmaster. The king of BBQ. Definitely a meat and potatoes type of guy. I think of Ron Swanson from Parks & Rec when I think of my dad! Anyway, my parents came for dinner the other night and my dad asked that I make my delicious fish tacos and it blew me away. Really?! Fish tacos? So I upped my game, added a little bolder flavor and flair and whipped up these bad boys and sure enough he loved them! So I had to share them with all of you. I added a cilantro lime slaw and fresh guacamole (something…

Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower Salad
Veggies that taste like you’re not eating veggies… No brainer! A little buffalo wing sauce and roasting these in the oven made this cauliflower crisp up and gave it a crunch that made it taste like buffalo chicken bites! I’m in love!

For the Cauliflower: 1 lb package frozen cauliflower 1/4 c hot wing sauce – I use Frank’s Red Hot Coat frozen cauliflower in sauce evenly. Spread on baking sheet covered in foil and sprayed with…

Meal Prep Madness
We are the epitome of busy. We have three girls ages 8, 5, and 3. My husband travels some for work. I am a nurse (not currently practicing). I run a business from my home helping people meet their fitness and nutritional goals. We workout daily. I grocery shop. I run monthly accountability groups for my clients.

Most days I don’t have time to prepare for what is thrown at me. But I’ve come to learn how important it is to…
