Healthy Foods: Looking for a frugal and easy meal?

One of my most favorite sightseeing trips was to Arlington, Virginia, right outside of Washington, DC, our nation’s capital. Arlington Cemetery is here and the hustle and bustle of the DC is evident, with monuments, statues, and museums everywhere. The great part of Washington is you can walk everywhere. But that makes you hungry, so […]
Healthy Foods: Have You Visited Your Dining Room Lately?

Mount Rushmore has one of the most well-known sights in America called the Mount Rushmore National Memorial. This granite cliff has several presidents’ faces carved into the side and has been visited by millions of people. Another well-visited place should be your own dining room table, especially when you have Jack Fish on the menu! […]
Food For Thought: Viva Italia! Gluten-Free!

Italian food is some of the best food in the entire world. And while it seems the whole world is going gluten-free, there are some who think that Italian is out of reach, au contraire!

Healthy Foods: Are You Drinking Liquid Clutter?

I am pretty much a stickler when it comes to deciding what to drink. The answer is always water and plenty of it.

Well, I understand […]

I get a lot of emails from readers (feel free to email your questions—I may include them in an upcoming article, Support at Saving Dinner dot com) and this one warrants an article. I hate to trouble you with a silly salad question, but I’ve never eaten salad on a regular basis before joining Flylady, […]

Food For Thought: Stick to Your Skillet

The skillet is one of the best inventions since (yeah, I’ll use that food metaphor), sliced bread. This wonder of precision-crafted metal can handle your dinner with ease and gives you the extra bonus of being easy on the clean-up, too. As simple and wonderful as the crockpot is for making stews and soups, the […]
Healthy Foods: How to Do Healthy and Low Carb

Say “low carb” and immediately visions of steak and eggs dance in your head. Folks somehow have this notion that your mouth will never again chomp into a sandwich or that your diet will be devoid of anything fiber-filled. Phooey, I say! It doesn’t have to be that way. You can have your low-carb and […]
