Green Coconut Smoothie
Night time is my weakness when it comes to food. If it’s in my kitchen, it will be in my mouth. Chips, popcorn and ice cream will always lose the battle after 6pm. And if I work at the hospital that day – forget it. Some may think by my nighttime eating habits that I am going into hibernation. For a decade.
Cucumber-Avocado Salad + Life Updates
As a child, I remember my mom used to make cucumber salads as dinner side dishes. She would usually either marinate cucumber with olive oil, vinegar, onion slices and salt; or marinate cucumber during the day in ranch dressing and serve with fresh cracked pepper. Both methods were delicious. I still love fresh cucumber salads and enjoying trying different variations. Cucumber salads are easy, affordable and usually healthy. To mix things up a little bit, I’m making a southwestern version featuring avocado and tomatoes!
