Oven Roasted Potatoes in 30 minutes (or less)

Oven Roasted Potatoes with Shredded Cheese

I've been going through various recipes about the best way to bake potatoes. Sometimes, my family and I simply do not have an hour to wait for this yummy carb to bake. One day, I decided to change things up and simply turn on the broiler on our oven and broil the potatoes.







Steps:

1. Line a baking sheet with foil. This makes for easy clean up.
2. Dice the potatoes and lay on top of the foil.
3. Pour olive oil over the potatoes and coat well.
4. Season with rosemary, salt and pepper.
5. Put the potatoes in the oven.
6. Broil for 30 mins and you're done! 💪

Strawberry Walnut Salad

Strawberries with Salad! Our favorite!

Making a salad is simple, but how do we make it taste good? Easy! Walnuts, strawberry, with a bit of low fat cheese of your choice does the trick! As for dressing, we kept it simple: white wine vinegar, salt and pepper, and extra virgin olive oil! Enjoy!!

Walnut Pancakes

Walnut Pancake
We love pancakes for breakfast. Now this isn't
our original pancake yesterday--simply a 
modification of pancake mix. We added 
walnuts, agave, and cinnamon! It is delicious! 
Garnish with walnuts, sugar free syrup, and you'll have quite the treat for breakfast ☀️

Strawberry Salad

Quick Salad

STRAWBERRY SALAD

There's nothing to it to a quick, healthy salad! 

1. Chop up some greens: cabbage, kale, arugula, and any other robust green (ours is from Trader Joe's pre-washed salad section). 
2. Chop a handful of strawberries or granny            smith apples
3. Rough chop a handful of walnuts
4. Add some cheese
5. Dress it up with white wine vinegar and             extra virgin olive oil 

Note: We did not measure out our dressing. We simply eyeballed this. How much dressing one puts in his or her salad (obviously) depends on personal preference. Customize this salad as you like--it's a good one!

Oven Baked Potatoes

We struggled with baking potatoes, because we could never get the temperature right and get the potatoes tender.

After playing around with different baking temperatures and cooking times, 425°F for 30 minutes has worked for us best! Lastly, season with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning! Enjoy!!

Tuna Salad with NO MAYO!

We doctored up the traditional tuna salad with mayo. Trying to be healthier, instead we used: extra virgin olive oil, capers, Spanish olives, anchovies, and canned tuna (drained).

All you have to do is toss the ingredients above and season with salt and pepper. That's it. Enjoy!
