Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
Last week, I shared with you my first intentional gluten free recipe. I say intentional because my friend alerted me to a few recipes on here that are already gluten free. Today, though, I am sharing with you a recipe that is a favorite of mine that also happens to be gluten free: ham and vegetable fried quinoa.

So, we’ve made it through Valentine’s Day and probably have a few extra pounds from the delicious dinner and yummy chocolates to show for it. Me, I’m recovering from a trip to Vegas where we ate and drank so much delicious but definitely unthealthy things 😉

Both Mathlete and I work full time and commute a pretty far distance to our offices. On nights when we run even the slightest bit late or have an errand to run, it can totally wreck dinner. It is those times that I really appreciate my small arsenal of really quick to the table meals.
