Good Food, Healthy Life.
Every once in a while I stumble across a recipe and become fixated on it. No sleep until I make it. Okay, this is actually more of a recurring theme in my life. This charred broccoli salad with arugula and smoked cheddar is one of those recipes. It intrigued me. I mean, what doesn’t sound good about a salad with homemade dressing, smoked cheddar cheese, fresh arugula, and charred broccoli?

It’s rough getting back on track after a week long vacation. Especially when it’s a vacation when you’ve overindulged…. And that first week back, I’m a mess. There’s no food in the house, our camping and rafting gear is everywhere, so much laundry…so much laundry! And all I want to do is sit on the couch, eat, and relax, just for a day or two. But I think one of the worst parts of coming back from vacation is going through alcohol food withdrawal. This low carb cheese curd avocado burger is just what I needed to help let myself down slowly and get back on track with healthy eating.

These roasted vegetables are soooooo dang good! This is the ONLY way we eat brussels sprouts. Make these for the perfect Easter side dish! Roasted brussels sprouts are one of my favorite vegetable dishes! When you roast veggies, it helps take some of the bitterness away, which is key for most people, especially for those stronger tasting veggies like brussels sprouts and broccoli. You might even be able to talk those picky eaters in your life into trying a bite of this veggie dish… I mean, it has bacon, come on!!! This dish is a nice twist on how I usually make brussels sprouts. My typical go-to is to toss them in olive oil, balsamic, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and then roast them in the oven. But with this twist, you get brussels sprouts and broccoli with bacon and walnuts, and it equals deliciousness….
