I know it has been some time since I have shared any recipes, or anything for that matter. But the blogging has started up again and I am back and with a new format and a LOT of yummy things to share with you! Don't forget there will also be lots of nutrition and wellness tips as well! This summer is definitely one I will never forget. I am positive that this is not the end to my love for adventure and travel, it has just begun (sorry Mama). Finding a balance between your state of wellbeing and at the same time an exciting and fulfilling life is what I am striving for.

Good morning everyone and happy Friday! Let's start this weekend out right with a healthy and simple meal! My sister just asked this question, "What's the difference between a frittata and a quiche?"
Basically, a frittata is Italian and quiche is French. A quiche often has a pastry base, whereas a frittata does not. They both can be filled with cheese, vegetables, meat, seafood and/or herbs. Similar to a quesadilla (one of my favorite foods), they can be eaten warm or cold, with a salad, or simply with a spicy salsa fresca!

Salty, Crunchy and Spicy Purple Cauliflower Recipe This awesome recipe is modified from a recipe at San Francisco’s delicious Pizzeria Delfina. I never really was that into cauliflower, but this recipes is spicy, salty and just the right crunch!
Purple cauliflower is similar to white cauliflower in appearance, but the name gives away its main difference. The vibrant purple color not only adds beauty but nutrition as well. The purple hue is a result of flavonoids and vitamins. Remember the more COLOR on your plate the BETTER for you!!
