Tabouli Salad
Hello everyone! It has been a very long time since I have posted, but I am ready to start blogging again! Today I am going to share with you one of my favorite salad recipes from my childhood. It is called Tabouli. This is an Arabic salad that my Sitto (Grandmother in Arabic) used to make all the time! This is a wonderful, refreshing, healthy summer dish that I hope you all will enjoy too!

Potato Latkes
Hi Everyone! I recently started watching the Amazon show, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. If you haven’t seen it, you really should. Season two just came out, and it is hilarous! Anyway, the main characters are Jewish, and they are always eating amazingly delicious Jewish food at a New York deli. For some reason this and the fact that it is the holiday season made me CRAVE latkes. So I decided to come up with a recipe and make my own version. I think they came out quite well! Enjoy!

Roasted Garlicky Asparagus
Hi everyone! It has been such a long time since I have blogged, and I have some exciting news! I am in training to be a Weight Watchers instructor and I am so excited to start! I have lost 46 lbs while on the program and it really works! I hope I will be able to help other people to do the same! I kind of had a lull in ideas, but I am back, and my latest recipe is for asparagus. I don’t know why, but I have been in the mood for asparagus lately, and that led me to come up with this delicious way to prepare it.…

Pomegranate Brussel Sprout Salad
Firstly I would like to wish you all a Happy New Years and Merry Christmas!!! Unfortunately, it has been a long time since I have been able to post, but the holiday season is always busy! Fortunately for me most of my busyness has been good! I have had lots of good times with my family, my boyfriend Phil, and his family too! Admittedly, I did get a little bit off track with Weight Watchers and tracking, so I am a little bit afraid to weigh in this Saturday, but I am pumped to get back on track and lose the last ten pounds that I am hoping to lose!…

Curried Cauliflower
Hi Everyone! Last night for dinner I had an idea that I was pretty excited about… and it came out even better than I thought! I got the idea from Wegmans (I know… big surprise!) six dollar meals. One of the side dishes they offer is curried cauliflower, which I have gotten before and enjoyed. So I decided to try to duplicate the recipe and it came out even better! I was super impressed! This dish is super low in points, very healthy, and it is delicious; like regular roasted cauliflower, but with a seriously awesome amped up flavor! It is also super easy (and fun!) to make! I hope…
