Somehow the new year seems to go hand in hand with being more mindful of our eating habits. It's no secret that I adore food...but I need my knuckles wrapped because my 1st choice is rarely one that's nutritious. That's saying it very nicely. Given a choice the last thing I'd reach for is a vegetable, especially if there's bread, cheese or meat around. So this finds me feeling very bloated and gross right about now. Feeling like this is not something I can bear so my husband and I are focused on ...
Lunch
Popeye Turkey and Hummus Wrap #FreshBTS
Back to school is in full swing for us. We had welcomed a summer of getaways, friends, family and relaxing. The summer seems to slip away faster each yea as the girls get older.

My mind drifted to some of the lovely fruit salads we've been having and I knew which one I'd choose ...
Chicken Antojitos Recipe – To DIE For
This week my fellow bloggers in the #FridayRecipeClub have issued the challenge for an interesting chicken recipe. Hmmm well you all know I adore chicken and have many chicken recipes available here on SoberJulie.com so how could I come up with something different? After some thought I was deciding between Jerk Chicken or my favourite appetizer Chicken Antojitos when realized I don't have the right spices for Jerk Chicken so the decision was made. Chicken Antojitos ...
