Greek Chickpea Flatbread Salad

Another day, another salad. I could eat the same thing for breakfast straight for two months and not get bored of it.  I usually alternate between yogurt with fruit and oatmeal with fruit.  I could also eat the same snack for days on end and that would be just fine.  Lately, I’m loving Skinny Pop popcorn as my snack of choice.  On the other hand, lunches are a totally different beast.  Lately I feel pretty lucky if I eat my lunch without being sick of it by the time I’m done.  I’m weird, I know. Salads tend to be my deal …

Spinach Pie (Spanakopita) for Two

I think this will be my favorite recipe of 2018. I know it’s probably too early in the year to say that I have a favorite recipe, but I really love this spanakopita (aka spinach pie).  Let’s just say that I’ve set a high standard for all recipes that follow this one. Spanakopita is usually made in a big pan to serve a lot of people.  If you’re my Yiayia (Greek grandma), then you make it in a very big pan.  You know, because Greeks like to make enough food to feed an army no matter how many people are …

How to Organize a Linen Closet

Hi guys!  I’m excited to share with you that I’m starting a new series on the blog called “How to Organize.” What’s this series about?  I’m sort of a neat freak so I have a tendency to want to organize things… all the time.  I guess you can say that I enjoy organizing things, a lot.  Is it normal to love organizing things?  Maybe keep that answer to yourself.  😉  Many of my family and friends have to come to for advice on how to organize stuff.  I guess I’m that good, or that crazy, or something. I’ve wanted to do this series for some …

Healthy Goals

The #1 new year’s resolution is to get more healthy.  I guess I’m in good company because that’s my new year’s resolution too, again.  I seem to have this resolution several times during the entire year so I’m not sure if that’s truly a “new year’s” resolution except that it happens to coincide with the first day of the year.  I’m not usually one for making resolutions.  I suppose January 1st is a good excuse to reevaluate all of my resolutions, especially when it comes to healthy eating since I probably ate more cookies last month than all of last year.  I thought …

Berry Kiwi Smoothie

Happy New Year! I’m back to my normal eating habits, which means that my holiday cookie diet is over.  It’s a shame because a cookie diet is the only diet that I seem to be able to stick with.   😉  I could never give up sweets because I love them so much, so I’m all about moderation.  I try to eat healthy during the week and splurge a little on the weekends. Smoothies are one of my go-to healthy meals.  I’ve shared a variety of them with you on my blog and now I’m adding this new pretty one to the list.  …
