It’s been far too long since I’ve posted a turkey recipe on the blog but I am happy to report that’s changing today with these Jalapeno Turkey Meatballs. My oven was fixed last Friday (broken glass on the inside of the door – weird) and after we came home from the lake, I knew I […] Read more…
I arrived home today from the lake, completely relaxed and stress-free from my mini-vacation (click here for my post yesterday on this) – and consequently I am not at all ready to get back to the office tomorrow.

It’s the start of my weekend – as in, yay weekend! I’m headed out shortly for a run … it’s a gorgeous 80 degree evening so we’ll see how that works for me. I’ve been pretty happy with my running regimen as of late – I think I’ve run pretty much every day over the past […] Read more…
Instead of apologizing for not writing a Turkey Tuesday in, say, a month of Tuesdays (practically), I’m just going to start right in with today’s turkey option for you. (#SorryNotSorry, right?) It’s Turkey Schnitzel! Schnitzel? Yep, schnitzel. The JENNIE-O® Extra Lean Turkey Breast Cutlets that I bought at my local Walmart over the weekend are […] Read more…
