When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

I know chocolate is a favorite by many, but I love chocolate in all flavors and forms! And one of my current favorites is Gatsby Chocolate since it has the decadence of premium chocolate but with significantly less calories and sugar.

Did you know that dark chocolate has these benefits?

If my kids could eat one thing forever, it would probably be mac and cheese. I mean who doesn’t love mac and cheese? It’s such a tasty, classic staple in everyone’s homes. But what about taking a good thing and making it a little bit healthier like Goodles has done?

Tasty Barilla Creamy Genovese Pesto

A little unknown fact about me, I am not big on pasta. I know, I know. Pasta is a huge staple in many homes. I do eat it occasionally but not a whole lot. That’s why I was excited to try out the new Barilla Creamy Genovese Pesto sauce since it can be used on just about anything and not just pasta dishes.

I have trouble coming up with new and exciting things to eat for breakfast outside of the normal hashbrowns, eggs, and bacon/sausage. I decided to try a little bit of Barilla Creamy Genovese Pesto sauce on top of some toast with a sunny-side-up egg and avocado. It was so good!

Yes, There is a Healthy Difference in Cooking Oils

Yes, There is a Healthy Difference in Cooking Oils

I can’t tell you how unskilled I was in the cooking department when I first met my husband. Recipes weren’t my thing if they weren’t from a box which obviously wasn’t the greatest thing to prepare and eat. And don’t even get me started on oils, which ones are good and which ones are bad. I know now that canola oil should be avoided at all costs because it’s synthetically made, and here I’d go for that one over vegetable oil because I knew corn was genetically modified. Now that I’ve done my own research and can cook something outside of the box, one of my go-to oils is extra virgin olive oil.

Olive oil is such a lovely addition to any meal but what I did not know much was the process that olives go through in order to offer a supreme product. Flavor for Life introduced me to Le Stagioni d’ Italia 100%  Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Grilled Margarita Chicken Recipe

Grilled Tequila Lime Chicken

This post is sponsored by Foster Farms Chicken but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.

I love summertime because that means more outdoor grilling on hot summer days, which mainly involves my husband’s doing while I sit back and enjoy a cold beverage. But, I do occasionally come up with tasty meals and grill them up myself when I am feeling adventurous.

Now, I know there are some people that prefer certain types of grills. We’ve owned numerous types, but my favorite will always be a toss between wood-pellet and charcoal. There’s just something about the charcoal and smokey wood pellet flavors that deliciously seep into the meat. 

But for this recipe, I used my mom’s gas grill since we were all hungry and I wanted the Foster Farms Simply Raised chicken to cook quickly.
