SWEET POTATO BLACK BEAN QUINOA BOWLS Easy SWEET POTATO BLACK BEAN QUINOA BOWLS topped with a zesty Cilantro Dressing you’ll want to pour all over. A fresh vegetarian meal that will satisfy even those meat lovers! MURDER is in the air. Or at least it was on Saturday night! Muuuuhahahahahahahaaaaaa! Mike and I got all dressed up in our characters and headed over to an All Hallows Eve Party Murder Mystery Dinner Party set in the 1950’s. We’ve never attended a Murder Mystery Dinner before, so we weren’t sure what to expect. We read over our character bios, our secrets, and the goals/objectives we needed to meet before the night was finished. I was freaking out a little because I wasn’t sure if I was gonna be able to pull it off. I’m a horrible liar, you’ll know right away by the look on my face if I’m lying or not. My character for the evening was Ms. Shelly Silverstein. A ditzy southern belle from south Texas who grew up on a cattle ranch. She is a seductive dance hall girl who recently w...

BANGIN GOOD SPICY SHRIMP BOWLS So this happened. 😀 I was craving Bonefish Grill’s ever so popular bang bang shrimp and decided to make my own at home and OMG. You guys… I’m so in love with this spicy shrimp bowl, I might have to make it again tomorrow, and the next day, and probably the day after that, because I figured it out. That secret ingredient in the sauce that makes you go hmm… See this isn’t the first time I’ve tried making a copycat version of bang bang shrimp. I’ve tried a few popular pinned variations that I found on Pinterest over the years but something was always off in the sauce. It was either too sweet or too mayonnaisey, and I always felt like it was missing something and it was! Peanut Butter. I know it sounds weird but stay with me…It’s so spot on and ridiculously good. 🙂 The beautiful thing about making this dish at home is you can customize the heat. Want it super spicy? Add as much Sriracha sauce as you can stand. I made this meal for myself and my 8 1/2 year o...
