Smoked Salmon

I have a new addiction!

A new, healthy addiction!

A new, healthy, always available addiction!

Amazing! 

My new wine glasses....

...LOVE!

Pork Tenderloin Medallion, Brown Rice and Veg

I made a special trip to my favorite meat market this weekend.  

I needed to fill my new freezer with delicious meats.  

These are one of my all time favorite things to get there.....bacon wrapped marinated pork tenderloin.

I fired up my little grill on my new patio, on what could possibly be the last nice 

night I will have to grill out all year.  

It was perfect and delicious!  

Served with brown rice and sauteed veggies, it was a quick, healthy meal.  

Nothing special, but good, none the less...

Egg Nog

This is the real stuff.  I should not have tried the real stuff.  I like this too much.  

I always loved egg nog as a child.  I haven't had it for years and years.  

I was at the wine store today and just had to try it.  It is absolutely as delicious as I had hoped it would be.  Fall and winter will be much more enjoyable with this little gem! 

YUM!

Hearty, Healthy Breakfast Pizza

When in need of food therapy, what do you desire?  I desire comfort food!  What is more comforting than sausage gravy, eggs and bacon?  I would argue that there are very few things more satisfying.  This pizza includes them all in pizza form, which I might argue makes it only that much better, but with a healthy twist.

This pizza will make you smile! I promise!

Build it:
Pizza Crust
Turkey Sausage Gravy
Scrambled Eggs
Center Cut Bacon
Mozzarella Cheese

Make it:
Crust - Thaw and stretch
Gravy - Brown the meat, Sprinkle in flour to absorb the juices, Pour in milk, Simmer, Season, Done!
Eggs - Scramble
Bacon - Fry and Chop
Cheese - Sprinkle

Bake @ 450 for 12-15 mins.

Enjoy!!! :)

Today's breakfast was this.....

So simple, yet so good!
