Pepper and Corn Soup with Fresh Cilantro

greenlitebitescom — Mon, 21 Aug 2023 03:37:02 +0000

Every summer I forget how awesome soup and it's unfortunate. A good broth based soup filled with fresh veggies is light, filling and super easy to make. Summer should be the best time to soup it up with best vegetables being in season! A few days ago I found myself with a couple of leeks...

Simple Cheesy Salsa

This may be my simplest idea yet, but it was so tasty and satisfying I had to share. Plus you guys know I'm a Laughing Cow Community Leader so I'm all about sharing fun ways to use their products. You guys may also know how I feel about pausing and making a snack versus just...

No Go on the Yo

What Came Home? All I heard was... "Evan's Coming!" The picture cracked me up! Anyway, the lunch was clean except the yogurt. When I asked him why he didn't eat it he said, "I don't like that kind. It's too weird." Apparently yogurt that's not neon blue, hot pink or glowing green is "weird." LMAO

My Cute Halloween Cheese Didn't Work. :(

greenlitebitescom — Mon, 21 Aug 2023 02:28:14 +0000

What Came Home? He was SO excited to have these cheese Jack-o'-lanterns in his lunch, but as you can see they didn't work. He's just not a cheese fan. I'm thinking I brought the wrong kid home from the hospital because I can't get enough of the stuff. Disclosure: I've partnered with The Laughing Cow....

Beans, Beans, They're Good for Your Heart...

What Came Home? Little Bean, the 1 year old, will eat any bean. ANY. It's kind of funny. Chickpeas, cannellini, lima, black, pinto, it doesn't matter. Little Guy, on the other hand, seems to prefer butter beans (large lima) and traditional "baked beans." He'll also eat pinto if they are in something like a quesadilla....

A Quick Summer Lunch

What Came Home? Sorry for my lack of post but the end of the school year was a blur. I let him buy most of the last 2 weeks since there were a lot of picnics and parties. I plan on continuing School Lunch ideas once 2nd grade starts up in September and having him...

School Lunch Idea 1

What Came Home? I told you, sometimes the yokes come back. I still try though. There have been a few times he did eat them or at least part of them.

Jicama for the Win!

greenlitebitescom — Sun, 20 Aug 2023 07:29:41 +0000

What Came Home? He didn't want me to put the jicama in because his "friends wouldn't know what it was and he didn't wanted to explain it to them." But I did it anyway and look what's all gone. 🙂 He said the triscuits got mushy, next time I'll make them the morning of instead...

It’s Book Giveaway Time!

greenlitebitescom — Sun, 20 Aug 2023 07:28:02 +0000

I'm sorry for another non-food post. I've had these few housekeeping things to take care of. Anyway, as I said on my Weight Loss Blog, I've been sitting on quite a few copies of the GreenLiteBites book and all they are doing is collecting dust in my closet. It's time to give them away! The...
