I hope everyone had a great long weekend! The blog really got away from me over the long break with us being out of town. I really try not to use any recipes that I have not tried on our family at least once so when we are gone for 4 days things get behind! It sure was nice to have a break from cooking though so I am not complaining one bit. Since we all probably ate way more calories than we needed over the last few days we will make up for that this week and I picked recipes that are lighter on the waistline but heavy on the taste.
