Hey friends, are you ready for Cinco de Mayo in a few days? I am! I am! With my margarita in hand I will be enjoying a big helping of these incredibly delicious Zucchini and Portobello Steak Fajitas! Yum! Confession time: I have never been a big fan of fajitas. I couldn’t put my finger on why I never wanted to order them at Mexican restaurants. I always chose tacos or enchiladas, or my favorite, quesadillas, over fajitas. The reason that I am so tripped up on why I am not a … [Read more...]
Italian Turkey Meatloaf Muffins (GF)
Meatloaf; you either love it or you hate it. Am I right? I have never been particularly fond of it. The recipes I always have tried seemed to turn out either too dry or bland. To be honest meatloaf makes me think of a hamburger gone wrong. I recently changed my tune about meatloaf when I watched a video that Dani Spies at Clean and Delicious made—btw I love her site, you must check it out. The video was about turkey meatloaf muffins. Don’t give me that disgusted, confused … [Read more...]
Shrimp Lettuce Wraps with Coconut Curry Sauce
Almost a month ago I made some amazing Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps. As I was eating them I was already dreaming up another lettuce wrap recipe. I remember describing it out loud to Paul as we ate. “Ooh I should make some shrimp lettuce wraps! Maybe with a coconut curry sauce.” He nodded in approval as he chewed on the current lettuce wraps. My mind is always swirling with recipe ideas. It must be interesting being married to a food blogger. These shrimp lettuce wraps are simple. The … [Read more...]
Coconut Quinoa Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Cilantro Lime Sauce (GF)
As a food blogger I post 2 recipes a week, or about 8 recipes a month. Most of the time I don’t have much of an issue with coming up with enough recipe ideas. I get my inspiration for recipes from family, friends, cookbooks, restaurants, and other bloggers. The change of seasons calls for the use of a seasonal ingredient. Holidays beg for certain types of dishes to be made. I keep my phone on me at all times to write down any visions of recipes that may come to me. Yet, with all of my insight … [Read more...]
Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Paul and I absolutely love Asian food. We love Chinese, Indian, and Thai. I especially love Thai foods; exhibits A, B, and C. Most of my filling up on Thai food has been on the occasions that we treat ourselves to eating out. Although this is an enjoyable approach to satisfying my Thai food cravings, we might be on the streets if we ate at a Thai restaurant every time a craving for Thai food struck. Solution: I am cooking more Thai foods at home! Among my favorite items to enjoy at a Thai … [Read more...]
Gluten-Free Eggplant Parmesan
Eggplant Parmesan used to be one of those meals that I would order at an Italian restaurant and savor each crispy, meaty, saucy bite because I always figured it would be way too complicated for me to make at home. I have news, my friends; making a satisfying eggplant Parmesan at home isn’t all that scary. Yes, it’s slightly more time consuming and labor intensive than most recipes I make here on Robust Recipes, but it isn’t as hard to make as you might think. It is well worth the effort, trust … [Read more...]
Salmon with Coconut Sauce
This recipe is so incredibly simple, yet delicious that I almost don’t know what to say about it. It is so good that you just HAVE to try it for yourself. The End. Just kidding! Salmon is by far my favorite type of fish, which is funny because I hated it when I was a kid. But as an adult salmon is at the top of my favorite foods list. Coconut is quite possibly also on the top of my favorite foods list. I love coconut milk, coconut water, coconut chips, shredded coconut; you name … [Read more...]
Vietnamese Pork Chops with Spicy Carrot Salad
When I was a kid I always found pork chops to be rather boring and bland. I mostly experienced them plain with a little barbecue sauce brushed on top or some cheese melted on top. Not bad in a quick pinch. But it gets old pretty fast. Let’s spice things up-literally-with our pork chops, shall we? Vietnamese Pork Chops with Spicy Carrot Salad is everything I had dreamed it would be. It is: Full of flavor Spicy Sweet Asian-esque Hearty yet light Tender Simple to make A few months ago … [Read more...]
Eggplant Pizzas (GF)
Paul and I both love pizza, Paul especially. He worked at a local pizza place for 8 years and received free or discounted pizza almost every day that he worked. As you can imagine, Paul requests pizza quite often and most of the time I am happy to join him in enjoying a good quality Take-N-Bake pizza. It is a treat for me to not cook that evening. When I am trying to eat healthy, such as right after the holidays, I have to deny Paul his pizza requests. I know, I am such a mean … [Read more...]
Greek Sweet Potato Boats
After my recent post of Roasted Coffee Sweet Potato Dessert Fries Drizzled with Dark Chocolate, you know how I feel about sweet potatoes. Especially when enjoyed as a dessert. Aaaaamazing! I have kind of been obsessed with sweet potatoes lately. I have been enjoying them as a side dish. I have found that I usually am more excited about the sweet potato side dish rather than the main event. So, I ask you, why not make sweet potatoes the star of the dish? There is no good reason not to. So, … [Read more...]
