Facebook had this video being shared virally of Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese and it looked AMAZING! However, when you are on a diet and typically trying to watch your weight you know that this is something you really can’t have or can you? I started to think why can’t I make a lighter version without all of those calories? I came up with Buffalo Cauliflower Mac & Cheese. Let me show you how I make it.
The weather is getting warmer and it is time to break out those grills for some healthy chicken kabob! Chicken kabob are yummy, easy, and fun to eat. The combination of veggies or meats/veggies are endless. Today I am going to show you my no fail chicken kabob recipe.
All you need is a few simple ingredients and you have a very satisfying meal. For all my veggie friends this recipe works for you too! I would use veggies like zucchini, potatoes, carrot, onions, etc to make your kabob. Follow the recipe and just skip the meat and use your favorite veggies. Just make sure you cut them large enough to hold up to the grill. Anyway, let’s jump right in to this chicken kabob recipe!
4 Cubed Chicken Breast
8 Portobello Mushrooms
4 Bite Sized Chopped Onions
10 Cherry Tomatoes
1 tbsp of Onion Powder
1 tsp of Pepper
1 tsp of Salt
1 tsp of Ground Mustard
1 tsp of Crushed Red Pepper
4 Tbsp of Avocado Oil
2 Fresh Minced Garlic Cloves
2 tsp of Fresh Thyme
2 tsp of Fresh Parsley
3 tsp of Fresh Oregano
Skewers Metal or Wood (please soak wood skewers for at least 45-60 minutes prior to use)
Cooking Brush
Preheat grill.
Mix the spice blend and sit aside. Mix the oil dressing and sit aside.
Separate chicken, onions, mushrooms, and cherry into different bowls. You can place veggies and chicken as instructed in the video below or in your own pattern. These veggies are interchangeable as well. Please use whatever veggies or meats you like best.
If you are going vegan or vegetarian, use sturdy veggies that can hold up to the heat, I would use veggies like zucchini, potatoes, carrot, onions, etc to make your kabob. Follow the same steps and grill until veggies are tender. I would pre-boil potatoes for about 6 minutes prior to placing on the grill. This way it will cook at the same pace as the other veggies you choice.
Once all the meats and veggies are on the skewers place on a hot grill. Sprinkle generously the spice mix over the top of the veggies and chicken. After the first 3 minutes turn brush on the oil based dressing on top and turn over.
Sprinkle the other side with spices and brushes on the oil dressing. Cook kabob on each side for about 3 minutes or until an internal temp of 165F.
Remove from the grill and brush the remaining dressing and spices on top.
You can serve this with salad, rice, or a nice pasta. The sides are endless!
I hope you enjoy!

Tacos are usually something we all think of as savory, but what if I told you that they can be a yummy sweet treat? Today’s recipe is dessert tacos! These tacos are filled with cream cheese, strawberries, blueberries, mint, and dusted with cinnamon sugar. These dessert tacos are so easy to make and won’t make you feel bad to eat. Let me share the recipe!
Preheat oven :350F
Place one paper damp towel on top of one large plate. Then place the tortilla on top of the damp towel. Next cover the tortillas with an additional damp towel. Place the plate into the microwave for 30 seconds. Remove from the microwave then place tortillas on top of the taco mold. Mold the tortilla around the mold to create the shape. Once you have molded all the tortillas place in the pre-heated oven for 10-13 minutes. The shells will become crispy. Make sure to check them after 10 minutes. After crisp, remove from the oven and then mix the cinnamon and sugar. Dust the shells.
In a large bowl add cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla extract, milk and sugar. Mix well until combined. Sit aside.
Layer the strawberries, cream cheese, blueberries, then more strawberries inside of the taco shell. Lightly drizzle chocolate syrup on top. Then garnish with thin strips of mint.
Make sure you share this recipe with the people you ♥

Be the best possible version of yourself.
A seared salmon sandwich is such a comfort without all the additional calories. The toasted wheat bread, juicy beef steak tomatoes. onions, lettuce and spicy mayo just turn this fish all the way up. This is one of my go to sandwiches when I am craving something a little different from the usual guilty pleasure. I also replaced the fries usually made with potatoes with zucchini.
