Cranberry Walnut Salad - Nugget Market

You see that pic down there, yeah, that one!!

Doesn't it make you want to run out and get the ingredients to make one yourself, come on, I know it does!! ;-))

This beautiful piece of art came from the Nugget Market, compliments of my sister again! It has all the stuff that I love in it..walnuts, feta cheese, cranberries, and raspberry vinaigrette!!

This salad was as awesome as it looks!!! 


Light Breakfast

Sometimes, you just want something light...other times, not so much!! haha

This was one of those times.  I woke up, and couldn't decide what I wanted for breakfast.  It was my day off yesterday, so I could have cooked anything I wanted.

This is what I came up with!! Some fresh avocado, a boiled egg, and some low fat cottage cheese. This breakfast hit the spot, and was so yummy!!!

OH, so you noticed the bottle of Frank's Red Hot sauce in the background! If you didn't know that I LOVE spicy stuff, you'd better ask somebody!! lol


Veggie Tostadas - By Ty

My oldest daughter is forever the health conscious one in the family.  She told me that she would like to try and make some veggie tostadas.

I couldn't picture what that would taste like! lol

These in a word were DELECTABLE!!!!  :-))

On these tostadas is:  re-fried beans, veggie sausage, cheese, lettuce, black olives, avocado, low fat sour cream, and Frank's Red Hot sauce.


White Cake with Strawberry Filling and Whipped Cream Frosting - Nugget Market

This is another wonderful dessert that my sister picked up from the Nugget Market.  It had a light, melt in your mouth consistency.  The whipped cream frosting was off the hook awesome!! The strawberry filling was fresh and delicious!!

This cake was simply delicious!! I don't eat a lot of desserts, but if I didn't bake it myself, the Nugget Market would be my first choice to go and purchase a dessert!!


Smoked Salmon Dip - Safeway

My first thought about anything fish related that is packaged, is not a good one! I was SO wrong on this one.  Not only did it taste fresh, but it was so good, I had to control myself with how much I ate!!

My oldest daughter picked this up when she was shopping in Safeway.  She came home and said, you have to try this, it's good.  I was skeptical, but willing to give it a try.

I ate it with with some pita chips, and boy oh boy was it GOOD!!! It has a little bit of spiciness to it, which I love.

If you have a Safeway near you, you MUST give it a try!!



Tuna Casserole - By Joann

My sister is so sweet!  She made this tuna casserole for me and my family, AFTER she got off from a long day at work!!

It was a new recipe that she was trying out, and she asked if we would like it.  I said yes, we would.  She went out, bought the ingredients, baked it and brought it over. She lives about 30 minutes by Freeway away from me!!  Very impressive!!

Even though you can't see them in the pic, this dish had potato chips as a topping!!  It was SO yummy!!! She did an outstanding job on this first time dish. :-))


Chocolate Brownie - Nugget Market

If you love rich, smooth chocolaty brownies, this is the treat for you!!  My sister brought this brownie to my house the other day, and just one look told me what to expect.

This brownie was super moist, decadent and completely forbidden to anyone on a diet!! No need to ask how many calories in this one.  If your asking, don't bother to buy it or eat it. ;-))

This was one for the books!! It was so large, that I split it with my son and their was still some left.  I literally cut it in four pieces, and each piece was large!!

DE-licious!!!!
