I try to stress in this series that eating healthy does not have to be boring. I’ve witnessed people losing weight a few weeks before a trip or event, and they invariably resort to some unsustainable diet and exercise routine. The eating plan is usually just a can of tuna and one apple a day, […]

Cookies and Cream is the dream
Back in the day, I would make an Oreo cake from time to time. It was a typical Devil’s Food flavor cake-in-a-box from the mega-mart, mass produced cream cheese full of unnecessary ingredients, a tub of frozen Cool Whip, and about two-thirds of a large package of Oreo cookies. It was topped with a hard shell of melted […]

Jason’s Chicken Fajita Casserole Replay!
Chicken fajitas are one of the few things I can order from a restaurant these days that fit my lifestyle… barely. Restaurants still use prison chickens that never get to move once in their life and go from chick to broiler so fast it looks like a time lapse video. They also use enough salt […]
