Whole30 Day 7 Dinner: Friday afternoon (which was Day 6 for me) I walked upstairs with one last chore to complete before jumping in the shower. I’d thoroughly sprayed the tub down earlier that morning with my all natural cleaner like always. I like to let the cleaner sit and do it’s thing while I…

Spiralized Zucchini in Mushroom Bolognese with Toasted Pine Nuts
Whole30 Day 6 Dinner: I typically cook vegetarian multiple times in a week. Usually I have one tofu and one legume dish in rotation and at least one vegetarian Italian or Indian inspired dinner on my menu. Whether it be Crunchy Tofu Tacos, Tofu Veggie Stir Fry, Chickpea Potato Curry, Lentil Chili, or Red Beans…
Amy’s Nashville Hot Buffalo Wings with Roasted Brussel Sprouts
Whole30 Day 5 Dinner: no matter how much you love to cook or how zen you feel in your kitchen, everyone enjoys a night off now and again. There’s just this indescribable, primal satisfaction of having someone else prepare food for you, especially if that someone is a significant other. Thursday night, and much to…
Ghee Basted Diver Scallops, Mash Potato Medley, Bacon Scallion Lemon Pepper Sauce
Whole30 Day 4 Dinner: since I had to pick the wifey up from PHL airport on Wednesday afternoon, I knew I wanted to stop by Reading Terminal Market for seafood. What I didn’t know was how impossible it was going to be to find a compliant lunch, or how damn difficult it was gonna…
Pork Fried Cauliflower
Whole30 Day 3 Dinner: another solo dinner favorite of mine is vegetable or pork fried rice, which I usually just utilize leftover Basmati rice from a previous night’s dinner making this meal-for-one super simple. After committing to this program however, I’ve got to get creative, as there’s no leftover rice in my fridge. Up until…
Quick Zoodle Noodle Soup
Whole 30 Lunch: Tuesday morning I woke up to a thunderstorm gusting outside my bedroom window and to my usual kitty alarm clock, better known as Salem, going off to remind me that it was time to get up and perform my only purpose in life, feeding him. It wasn’t exactly chilly out but the…
Blackened Pork Chop with Dijon Sweet Potato Mash & Spicy Kale Chips
Whole30 Day 2 Dinner: I have to admit this dinner kind of got me excited. When dining solo I usually opt for pork, if I’m in the mood to cook at all that is, and it just so happened that I had two gorgeous bone-in pork chops in my freezer, that I had picked up…
Lettuce Breakfast Tacos
Anyone who has noticed even a handful of my posts knows I’m an avid taco lover. Wrap it up in a seared white corn tortilla, stuff it in a crunchy yellow or blue corn taco shell and I’ll pretty much eat anything. Day 2 of Whole30 had me standing in front of my fridge barely…
Simple Butternut Soup
Oh my! Butternut squash soup without milk or sour cream or butter? Wow, this Whole30 program is getting real but no worries! With a little pinch of this and a double pinch of that, we never missed any of the dairy. I went with Turmeric and Smoked Paprika but go with whichever seasonings are your…
Dijon Green Bean Salad with Hard Boiled Egg, Toasted Almonds, Bacon, & Tomatoes
Luckily all but one of my mustards are Whole30 compliant and currently I’m obsessed with Dijon. I enjoyed this salad warm, but I am certain it will taste just as scrumptious chilled. Make it ahead and carry along with you for a cost effective lunch or serve it as a super quick and easy weeknight…
