Guaca-mame (Avocado and Edamame Dip)

What do you get when you mix guacamole with edamame dip? Guaca-mame, of course! At least, that’s what my hubby called it while sampling this culinary experiment.
It all started when I saw this Quick and Easy Edamame Dip over at La Fuji Mama (isn’t she brilliant?)…  I love edamame, and I loved the idea of [...]

Spicy Garbanzo Dip

If you’re looking for some healthy alternatives for your Super Bowl party this weekend, look no further!
As I mentioned in my last #10in10 post, one of my goals this week was to try to plan some healthy snacks to help me avoid the sweets in between meals. So, on Sunday afternoon, I whipped up this [...]

Friday Favorites – Blogiversary Edition (Episode 39)

It has been 1 year since I started blogging and sharing my recipes here at My Kitchen Addiction… Can you believe it?
It’s hard for me to believe that it’s been a whole year already… In fact, it was so hard to believe that I totally forgot about it earlier this week (Jan 18th was the [...]

Pomegranate Lime Tea

A few months ago, I decided to stop buying diet soda.  My husband and I used to drink a lot of it, but we are now living diet soda free!  I was always somewhat skeptical of the artificial sweeteners and knew that drinking a lot of soda really wasn’t good. It was a huge decision, [...]

Spicy Black Beans

My husband “doesn’t like black beans.”  At least, that’s what he thought.
In addition to the goals I mentioned in my first Ten in 10 post, another ongoing goal that I have is to make more vegetarian meals. I typically make one or two vegetarian dinners each week, but I would like to be eating meatless meals [...]

Frozen Verbena Mojitos

I’m not usually a big fan of cocktails… In fact, I rarely order them anymore because I often take one sip and end up leaving the rest because I don’t really like the flavor.  It’s not that I haven’t tried!  The one cocktail that I absolutely love, though, is the mojito.  While it’s a fairly [...]

Easy Guacamole – First Impressions of the Ninja Master Prep

Even in the age of technology, there is something exciting about getting things in the mail.  Yes, the “snail” mail.  I get excited whenever there is a letter or card in the mail with my name on it.  It’s fairly normal for my hubby to receive packages in the mail, but I rarely get anything [...]

Friday Favorites – Episode 25

Friday has arrived…  Thank goodness!  I started writing this blog post last evening, but I didn’t get far.  I had a meeting this morning and lots of email when I got home from my meeting.  Now, I am caught up on email, and I am quickly trying to get my blog post done so that [...]

Fajita Burritos

Recently, a Chipotle Mexican Grill opened up near my house…  Okay, it’s not actually that close, it’s about 20 minutes away.  But, that’s close enough for me.  Before that, I had to go to Baltimore or New York to get my Chipotle fix.
The thing is, it’s not entirely a good thing that Chipotle opened up.  [...]

Mayo-less Mexican Slaw

In last week’s CSA share, we got another head of cabbage.  I’m always excited to pick up our share each week, but I can’t say I was terribly thrilled with another head of cabbage.  I have been making various slaws and stuffed cabbages all summer long, and I wasn’t really feeling all too inspired to [...]
