Eat Healthy – Live long, Live strong
My husband John has always been a big huge fan of buffalo wings. Me, not so much. They remind me of wing night held at one of the dining halls on our alma maters campus many members of the football team would without fail convene to consume massive amounts of the messy finger food. Witnessing the gluttonous feast…
This is another recipe made with my husband in mind. What can I say the man loves ranch dressing and barbeque sauce toss in some jalapeno chicken pizza dough and cheese and John’s a happy guy!

As mentioned in this post The Upper Crust is one of our favorite Boston pizzerias and they now provide nutritional information for their pizzas. There is, unfortunately one caveat that keeps this Beantown pizza joint from earning the #1 spot on our list those charming bikes with the boxes on the back that they insist upon using for delivery do…
That’s right. Chili cheese fries. On a healthy food blog. This American bar favorite is easier to healthify than you might think. Start with thickly cut crispy potato wedges roasted with a bit of cooking spray rather than fried in a vat of oil then layer on a homemade chili thats heavy on veggies &…

Name: Spicy Pulled Chicken Cuisine American Prep Time 15 minutes Cooking Time 8 hours Total Time 8 hours Servings 8 Yield 8 Thanks to the trifecta of a whole jalapeno pepper, chipotle chile powder, and cayenne pepper, this Spicy…
I’d be hard pressed to choose a favorite between Mexican and Italian cuisines. I like preparing and love eating foods from both regions. It is for this reason that I was excited to find a recipe in the March 2009 issue of Cooking Light for Tex-Mex Calzones – an Italian concept with Mexican ingredients and flavors. I set out…
It’s football chili season! On any given sunday afternoon during this time of the year you can bet that our T.V. is tuned to a football game John either lounging on the sofa or fist-pumping the air. I admit that I’m not a huge fan of watching the games in their entirety nor do I have a…
Phew! It has been H-O-T here in Boston this week. I don’t know about you but when the temperature soars I have little interest in spending a prolonged amount of time over the stove or in front of the oven. Even though I could happily enjoy a bowl of fruit and yogurt for dinner on…
Oh, and fresh mozzarella. But hey, I had to cut the title off at some point – it’s long enough as is. I know what you may be thinking. Fruit? On a pizza? What? Let me just stop you right there. Indulge me for a moment and think about how fantastic fruit and cheese taste…
