I love it when a few ingredients can come together to make something super delicious. I love it even more when it’s budget friendly – meaning, you could make this for recipe even if you need to pinch pennies. Plus, it’s something that everyone can eat since it’s vegan and vegetarian friendly! This slaw can…

Recipe: Onion Thyme Dip
You know that onion dip that you can make by mixing a soup seasoning packet into a tub of sour cream? I have fond nostalgic memories of that and I think it was one of the first things that my parents had allowed me to cook as a kid. But now that I’m grown up,…
Recipe: The Salad Dressing Series.
So, you’ve made a salad and now you want a dressing to top it with. Have you considered making your own? Salad dressings are really simple and easy to make! I came up with four recipes that I shared with HMSA Hawaii. And since they’ve revamped their website and changed from Well Being Hawaii to…
Video Recipe: Cilantro Lime Dressing

Recipe: Creamy Avocado Cilantro Dressing
It’s time for another salad dressing recipe! What I love about this recipe is that not only can you use it for salads, but it also can be put on burritos or tacos, and it can be used as a dip for veggie sticks or chips! Everything comes together really quickly with the help of…
Recipe: Balsamic Basil Honey Dressing.
I have a confession to make…. As much as I love cooking and baking, I am lazy. Especially after working and commuting, I don’t want to stand around in my kitchen and cook something. So my ultimate lazy meal after work ends up being salads. Just wash the veggies, chop and slice them up, toss…
