Make a to-die-for breakfast sandwich using savory French toast stuffed with Jennie-O turkey sausage patties, over-easy eggs, and cheddar. Once upon a time, I created a savory version of French toast—and there’s been no looking back ever since. I discovered the idea while watching a cooking show recently, and after making a few different versions,…

March Favorites
Happiest of Wednesdays to you! This week has been going pretty fast, and this month has gone even faster. April will no doubt be an…interesting…month for us. The main reason? We’re moving! Except it’s not really a happy thing, because our landlord wants to move into his house, which means we need to set up…
Parmesan Herb Baked Salmon
Transform salmon filets with this simple yet flavor-packing topping—it makes for a quick and nutritious dish perfect for any weeknight. In my opinion, salmon is the king of all fish varieties.

Egg White Oatmeal in the Microwave
Add egg whites to your morning oatmeal for a boost of protein and a fluffy texture that will keep you full for hours. If you’re anything like me a few months ago, the idea of adding eggs to oatmeal doesn’t exactly sound the most appealing. How do you know if they’re even cooked? Am I…
Quote of the Day: The Perfect Diet
Every time I jump onto social media, I’m bombarded by posts about the latest foods I should or should not be eating. Kale? Magic. Avocado? Put it in and on everything. Fried food? THE HORROR.
