Which is Healthier: Greek Yogurt or Regular Yogurt?
Greek Vs. Regular: By the Numbers Greek yogurt has surged in popularity in recent years, and with good reason. Straining out the extra whey in yogurt makes Greek yogurt thick, creamy and tangy. The plain variety has less sugar and more protein than typical yogurt. But regular yogurt delivers twice the bone-strengthening mineral calcium. Greek yogurt also tends to be more expensive than regular yogurt, because more milk goes into making each cup. Pictured Recipe: Apple Oatmeal

Cauliflower "Fried Rice"
I LOVE fried rice, and often make my own fried rice at home with brown rice which is delicious. But sometimes when I want to cut down on my carbs, I opt for cauliflower rice.I posted this Cilantro Lime Cauliflower "Rice" a while back, and it was a huge hit. So I decided to play around with that recipe and make this Asian version to go with the Orange Chicken I posted yesterday, and my husband (who detests cauliflower) was pretty amazed how the meal turned out. The portions are generous and you get a serving or two of vegetables into your diet….

Fatty McFatfat
Breakfast to BedRant Ahead. The notion of butter, the idea of it, has begun to fall in one of two camps: one-elevated above all other fats. Worshipped for its flavor, its simplicity, its purported benefits to mind and body. The second camp, it’s viewed as heretical to imbibe. Why eat something that is a…
If you see my brain
You guys. I guess my brain only has limited space right now -it’s even worse since I birthed it two years ago- because I had not one, but two major fails yesterday. I got to the studio to teach my second Zumba class and couldn’t figure out why no one was there. Even my friend Megan, who was going to team-teach with me, was not there. I’m sitting in the office, look at the clock around 6:10 after 15 minutes of waiting and realize. My class is at 6:30, not 6. It’s ALWAYS been at 6:30. Better super early than super late, though. I killed time by reading a…
Grilled Tomato Biscuits with Laughing Cow Cheese
If you follow me on Instagram, you know by now that I have an obsession with tomatoes. Grape tomatoes, heirlooms, or romas… I love them all. I love the color and my goodness I love the taste. I’ve also shared over the years that I am not the biggest fan of breakfast. It’s weird though… if you subtract the eggs from the menu, detour from the sweets and head to savory town, I’m suddenly a fan of breakfast again. Today’s recipe is one of my favorites and it combines three things I absolutely adore: Beautiful grilled tomatoes Laughing Cow Cheese {From my Tennessee Roots} A Biscuit The other great part is that it’s incredibly easy to make, and there’s something satisfying about …
On eating meat
photo by Kevin Dooley I, Andie Mitchell, am crazy about animals. So let’s start there. I’m one of those annoying people who emails friends with the latest video of a squirrel and a duck playing together. I can’t pass a dog on the street without breaking into a wide-eyed grin and saying hello in this really crazy, babyish voice (absolutely as terrible as it sounds). I cry when I pass a dead raccoon on the side of the road. Just a month and a half ago, I found a teeny tiny mouse, …
