Indoor BBQ? #NoProblem

Alright family, have you ever had a taste for something, but in the end you are missing one of the main ingredients?

Well, yesterday, it was me!!!

I wanted to grill everything! I mean everything! I wanted grilled carrots, grilled asparagus, grilled mushrooms, grilled corn, grilled veggie dogs, and grilled salmon for the meat-eaters in my house. I told you… ALL GRILLED EVERYTHING! As soon as I left work, I hit the grocery store and BOOM, I had a cart filled with all the items that I wanted.

How to Be a Healthy Grocery Shopper

Words of Wisdom: Stay Close to the Perimeter

I say this because along the perimeter of every grocery store lies all of your fresh, preservative free foods. I’m talking food in its natural form. Not canned. Not made to last forever. Just the fresh stuff. Think about it.
Where are the fresh fruits and fresh veggies at your local market. Right on the outskirts of the store! Fresh meats? Around the outside. Fish? You know where this is heading right? There is a difference from the fish you purchase at the fresh fish counter versus the fish in the aisle ... in those cans. (just sayin’)

Taco Tuesday

Who wouldn't want tacos on Tuesday?

Seriously, after a great weekend, you have to come face to face with Monday (grrrrr), leaving you physically drained and waiting for the weekend to come back around again. Then, Taco Tuesday arrives and it gives you the boost you need, because you know...a fresh, savory taste is coming...wrapped in a warm tortilla and topped with all the fixings - fresh lettuce, tomato, salsa, and guacamole!!! #BlessGod!! Mexican Black beans topped with sriracha (I’m hungry right now!!)

I was trying to figure out the best way to kick off The Cooking with Que blog, but it had to be simple...and incorporate something that everyone loves. #TACOS!!!! (Come on saints… I know your mouths are watering right now lol!!!!) The #TacoTuesday hashtag has taken over the web and I make a pretty tasty Taco (let’s be honest) soooo……. WHY NOT #CookingWithQue for #TacoTuesday?

I’m Vegan …….. but…. LET’S TALK CHICKEN!!!!!

Who knew shopping for chicken to feed my family would be such a big deal!

I mean seriously. Once you figure out what you’re cooking for dinner you should be able to just go to the grocery store, grab what you need and get out right?
WRONG!!!
I feel like you need to be a certified nutritionist to even go to the grocery store! It’s ridiculous. I already have to read packages, because I’m the vegan of the family and allergic to dairy!!! (sometimes people think I’m saying “lactose intolerant”….. NO!! THERE IS A DIFFERENCE) Sigh!!!
Have you ever read the back of packaged chicken? I thought it would just say - Ingredients - chicken? Ha! A joke!
Each package had different verbiage. I’m going to give you the basics of what to look for and how it reads.
THE BASICS ... what to look for while you’re shopping.
