Two things that hold true for me when it comes to food:

• I do NOT skip meals (I don't think I've ever skipped a meal in my life AND I'll never understand people that "forget " to eat).
• I do NOT compromise on flavor (this means even if I don't have time, am uninspired, or am in a rush - I ALWAYS manage to find a way to be sure that whatever I am eating tastes good! [I mean really... why eat a meal if it doesn't taste good?!]).

When it comes to weeknight meals, I often have to remind myself to KEEP IT SIMPLE!!  It seems that sometimes the most basic meals and techniques can also be the most satisfying...

Fresh herbs are hands-down one of the easiest, fastest, and most nutritious ways to add a lot of flavor to a simple meal. 

I find that the biggest challenge people have with fresh herbs is making them last!  So....

For those of you really trying to incorporate more QUICK and HEALTHY meals into your diet you have to play in the world of steaming. 

In order to make quick meals there are a handfull of things you need to know.  The most important (in my opinon) is knowing how to use your knife.

Once you've got that down all you have to do is grasp a basic understanding of how to handle the ingredients you're working with and you'll be good to go!

It's been a while since I have posted a new video, which is why I am so excited to be posting a new video today!!

Now I am super excited about this video for two reasons:
