Oh boy burgers

I must admit, no shame to admit and I loved every minute of it....I had a burger last night for dinner...and man was it tasty. So burgers are not the healthiest meals out there, I get it but who cares right?  Sometimes you just want to eat a burger. 






Let me tell ya...this burger had all the fixings and it was d-lish!!  Juicy, saucy, and flavorful. Man, In n out, you did not disappoint. 

Don't you just love a good burger???  What's your favorite burger joint?
Have a foodilicious day!!

Can it get any better??

Don't you just love a good pasta bake?  Pasta is another feel good, comfy type of meal. Imagining the warmness, the sauce, the cheese, the ground Turkey (don't worry, this was made prior to recent outbreak)...Can it get any better?   I guess you can tell what I had for dinner last night. And let me tell ya, pasta goes hand in hand with the bread. I know, it's like carb overload right. I get it, it's not one of my "go to" healthy meals, sorry it just isn't.  I seriously, would NOT normally eat it with mounds and mounds of cheese....and certainly not a second helping. my goodness SHOCK!!!   But, guess what I did last night...YUM!!  I did actually cut down on the cheese though, can't be too crazy.

At any rate, my contribution was the garlic bread...oh  my word, was it d-lish!!!  Let me tell ya about this bread. French Bread--Good. Butter--Good. Garlic--Good. Chopped herbs---GOOOD!!   (that's for all my FRIENDS lovers out there)  At any rate, this was no calorie bust!! 

Here is a pic of my garlic bread in it's all it's GOODNESS.  Thanks to my pal for providing me with the recipe.




Note: I added fresh basil to the chopped herb recipe.



What's your favorite brand or recipe for garlic bread?

Have a foodilicious day!!!

Are you hungry?

Hungry, hungry oh and did I mention hungry?? Obviously not eating all day causes you to be hungry (what, you didn't know that??  Well, I am here to tell ya)  So, sometimes you want something that is hearty and full of flavor and just comforting.

Enter this beauty:


Chicken & Potato bake.  It had cut up chicken, potatoes, celery, carrots and cut up tomatoes.   This is a regular recipe created by a la mama. It's the perfect dish if you want something hearty and flavorful. it has a great blend of spices and vegetables. It's a win-win situation. 

Do you have a favorite family hearty dish?

Mama Mia Pizzaria

Man, I gotta tell you, I love pizza. I can always eat pizza, it's one of my favorite meals. I know pizza isn't always the healthiest option HOWEVER, I believe the choices that you make on what to have on your pizza can always make it a healthy option.  Also, just portion control your slices and possibly have a salad on the side.

So, this is for you pizza.


Pesto Pizza, Really wanting to try this one.




Here is what I had for dinner last night.




VOILA!!!


. I added basil for an extra kick.  D-lish because it adds a little bit more flavor to the veggie pizza.  I find that I am not a big fan of Boboli sauce. It seems to be too sweet. All in all it was a great and healthy dinner!!

Have a foodilicous day!!

Happy August

Hope you all having a great Monday!!  It's the first day of August and it's fabulous!!   This month I am going to be bringing one item that I add to my dinner and talk to you about the meal.   Some of you may know this but for the rest of you, today is the first day of Ramadan which means I do not eat or drink or anything for an entire month--WAIT, don't you worry, I do eat when the sun goes down, but that means around 8:00p.m.  So, I won't have any fun stories to share about my lunch or breakfast or even snacks...but I will share with you my dinner.

This should be interesting because I will not be really focusing on the entire meal like in the past but just one item that I will be personally making, since this month I will NOT be the main chef in my kitchen.   This should be interesting...
