This is one of my all time favorite meals to make in our home! It is so easy, so flavorful and packs a lot of vegetables. It reminds me of the lettuce wraps you’d find at a lot of Asian restaurants, but this version is made with turkey and probably less msg. You can alsoContinue reading “Turkey Lettuce Cups”

I love a good salad, but I have a few requirements because there is nothing worse than a boring salad you feel like you’re just chewing on for hours…we don’t need that energy in our life.

This recipe is for bibimbap-ish because traditional bibimbap is meant to be served in a hot stone for the rice to cook and then you mix it all together.

The most time consuming piece of this recipe is roasting the potatoes – but it is so worth it to have wonderfully, crispy potatoes on the bottom. The other key to this dish is using premade gyro meat. Costco and Trader Joe’s both have greatContinue reading “Easy Gyro Bowls”
