Sun-Dried Tomato & Feta Turkey Burger

Eating a burger that is a healthier option doesn’t have to be boring! There are so many great recipes and options to add that make a turkey burger just as delicious as it is healthy!

I recently made a recipe that called for sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil. Wow! These added so much flavor! Creamy feta is also part of the recipe. What great flavor and texture additions they were!

Traveling

A Simple to Make Travel Pillow

Like most travelers, I purchased a travel pillow. You know the variety – soft, black fabric stuffed with a filling. The little pillow fits around your neck, allowing you to rest while traveling. That’s all well and good, until the filling starts making my head itch! I don’t know exactly what’s inside of those pillows, but it’s not really conducive to rest.

Tortilla Shell Quiche

While on the hunt for healthy alternatives for some of my favorite breakfast foods, I found the delicious Three-Ingredient Pancakes that I shared here recently. I have made them several times and swoon at their texture and flavor!

Then my daughter told me about making a quiche and swapping out the caloric crust for a tortilla shell! I buy the La Banderita Carb Counter tortillas and they are super low in calories, so I knew they would be a good choice for my “crust.”
