It’s been awhile since I wrote a “life lesson from a yogi” post. The world we live in has been so crazy. It is scary and HARD trying to navigate this new “norm” if you will. It is astounding to think that literally every person […]
Since it’s summer we are eating a ton more salads. They are perfect on a hot summer night. We don’t eat a lot of bread but every now and again we make BLTs and I don’t like the rest of the bread to go to […]
Lately I have been inspired by my travels when I cook dinner. Probably more so than ever since I am unable to travel anywhere. We have been cooking a lot of Greek inspired dishes. From Village Salads to Greek Bowls. The other night we were […]
There are some nights when I don’t want to cook but don’t feel like getting take out either. Chipolte is a go-to for us as far as takeout goes. I love their veggie burrito bowls. The combination of beans, rice and faijta veggies are light […]

I think I was an Italian grandma in a past life. I love all things pasta. Also I don’t know how to make dinner for two. I cook too much food always. On the weekends I love making pasta. This past weekend was no exception. […]
I love Greek food. And while I don’t cook a ton of their traditional dishes I definitely use them as inspiration. I have been making these grilled chicken Greek bowls almost weekly lately. They sound complicated but they really aren’t. If you have a grill […]
Village salads hands down are one of my favorite things about Greece. We have gone to Greece twice and both times we ate village salads every day. They are so simple yet so delicious. A Village salad is nothing more than tomatoes, bell peppers, red […]
While I am a picky meat eater I love a good gourmet BLT. When I think about pairings of meals BLTs and tater tots are a perfect combo. Especially if the tater tots are crispy. There is a place in Detroit that has the best […]
I LOVE a good broccoli cheddar soup! Panera has one of my favorite versions. When I was little my grandpa used to make cream of broccoli with chicken soup that was also good. But it was a little runny and made with full fat milk […]
I am having a hard time being inspired these days. Life is frankly chaotic. But I want to share good recipes with others, especially people who are trying to cook more. One of my favorite simple recipes has made my Instagram but I never put […]
I am a foodie, yogi, lover and Detroiter. I am passionate about everything I do. I live by the 80/20 rule to try to eat healthy and take care of my body. I have learned that you can’t always control everything and 20% of the time I let go. I hope to be an inspiration to anyone who comes to my site. See the “Who Am I” section for more information. Namaste! Karissa

Summer time is in full force. And with summer comes summer parties and barbecues. Recently we had a party to go to and i knew I needed to make a dish. One of my best friends had been traveling in Greece and was sending […]
When people ask me where my favorite vacation was hands down it was Greece. My best friend is first generation American and his family is from little villages in Greece. He often goes back, so often that my friends usually tag along on his trips. […]
Growing up I remember my dad would make us grilled chicken Caesar salads all the time. We had this indoor grill that he used to grill up the chicken and it always had a great char/almost crust to it. We always used Cardini’s caesar dressing […]
