With triplets it’s difficult to find foods that all three agree on; sometimes that means cooking three separate meals just to get them to eat (something I said I’d never do pre-kids). Imagine my surprise when, at around three years old, they all took a liking to smoked salmon. To me smoked salmon seems to…
“I’m Bacon You For A Date” Heart Skewers
Looking for an easy, guilt free (even Paleo) treat for Valentines Day? These little babies are easy to make, and combine that sweet ‘n salty deliciousness.

Occasionally I get the urge to to try to create something sushi-like at home. These Salmon Salad rolls are fairly easy to make, and with…
