Fried rice is always a delicious and filling dish.. but not always the healthiest. Most often, it is overloaded with sodium, high in fat and calories, and made with refined white rice.. booooo!

Quinoa Mac & Cheese

Grilled Shrimp Tacos
We have had some crazy hot weather lately, and I am not complaining! It’s not often we get heat like this here in Edmonton, so I am taking it all in, one bead of sweat at a time! So I thought, in honor of this heat, I’d make some of my favorite Mexican food …
