Wild fish caught in areas where stocks are plentiful are sustainably sourced, as are farmed fish that are reared on farms proven to cause no harm to surrounding seas and shores.

Cheeseburger gnocchi If you follow me on Instagram you would have noticed that I was vacationing in Santa Fe, NM for an EARLY anniversary trip with my hubby. We had an amazing trip allowing us to eat, shop and site see through the gorgeous artsy town. Typically when I get home from a trip its after dinner or we pick something up so we don’t have to worry about dishes or cleaning up a mess. We arrived home pretty early in the afternoon so I knew dinner would be up to me. I’m not embarrassed to admit that I had my fair share of hamburger helper dinners while growing up. My parents would leave for a function and my sister and I would be in charge of dinner.

2-Minute French Toast in A Cup Who’s got the munchies? Ha! Seeing as our Cup of Coffee Cake (in Under 5 Minutes) was our most popular post of 2011, I thought y’all might enjoy my other favorite last minute snack, which is even quicker and easier and more fattening (and therefore more delicious/more embarrassing to admit I eat on a regular basis). It’s french toast in a cup, made in your microwave and topped off with a generous ssquirt of ssyrup (which is making my ssssss key kind of sssticky right now).

Crock Pot Turkey White Bean Pumpkin Chili A perfect fall chili made with pumpkin puree, ground turkey, white beans, green chili and spices. Top this with chopped fresh cilantro, scallions, jalapeños, light sour cream, and/or reduced fat cheddar and serve it with baked chips on the side for a wonderful lunch or dinner. I am so happy to share this one with you!!! Not all my crock pot experiments get me excited, but when they do they wind up here on Skinnytaste.
