Seasonal Recipe: Strawberry Salsa

Strawberry Salsa Recipe

I will keep this post short and sweet, just like this recipe!  Because when you are 38 weeks pregnant, hungry, and frankly a little cranky, you want a snack that you can make quickly.  FYI so does everyone else around you because apparently cranky, hungry pregnant women are not the most fun to be around.

My green veggie quest continues this week and the star this time is spinach. I must admit that although I bear no resemblance to Popeye, spinach is probably my favorite green vegetable. It’s incredibly versatile, ridiculously healthy, and not too shabby in a smoothie. What more could you ask of the leafy little guy? Smoothies [...]

In honor of my Irish heritage and fellow O-postrophes, I am dedicating the month of March to being green!  While for some that might mean your fair share of green beer or a shamrock or two, in my little food blog world it means paying homage to the modest green vegetable.  All this month I’ll [...]
