Greek Turkey Burger with Tzatziki

I don't know about you, but I have had a fantastic weekend!

The Canadian Professional Bull Riding Finals were in town, so Scott and I went to that (as we have every year for the last 3 years!). Saturday, after the event, they also have what they call a Cowboy Cabaret, where everyone heads over for some drinks, food and live music. This year Emerson Drive performed! It was an awesome night, but a late one! I can't remember the last time I stayed up that late. So little Mya, barking her head off at 7am this morning was a bit of a rude awakening...

Southwest Egg Rolls

When I am looking for new recipe inspiration I have a few different sources that I go to. More recently, I have purchased a couple of different cookbooks. And then, of course, there is Pinterest!

That is where the idea for today's post originally came from... Nutritious Eats' post for Southwestern Egg Rolls. But I decided to do mine a bit differently, mostly based on what I already had around for spices and veggie options.

Steak and Spinach Quesadilla

Looking for something to do with that leftover steak? How about Steak Quesadillas!

If you live in the area, you are going to want to check out the Bulk Cheese Warehouse for the most delicious steaks EVER!! Well, anything cold smoked there is worth a try. A-maz-ing.

Scott and I enjoyed a delicious steak and potato dinner one night, but we had a bit of leftover steak and so I was trying to come up with some other way to use it besides the same way we had just eaten it. Plus... there wasn't enough for both of us to eat it as a full meal.

Pancakes

It's been a busy week folks!

For starters, my parents came to visit this past weekend! About two months ago I mentioned to my father that I was starting to consider selling my car and moving up to an SUV. He LOVES car shopping, so it wasn't long after that that he started sending me information on every SUV out there and talking to sales people to get an idea on prices. Over the last month I have test driven quite a few of them... and finally found one that I liked the best. All that's left... is to sell my car! (If you're in the market for a pretty cool Tiburon, let me know!)

Roasted Beet Pizza

We are still slowly, but surely working our way through the vegetables we have remaining from our farm share. While some haven't lasted too long (namely, carrots - my SO seems to be working his way through those pretty good) we still seem to have an over abundance of potatoes and beets taking up space in our cupboards and fridge. So when it came to making supper the other night, I decided I should probably try to use at least one of them... and I decided on beets!

Beets are something I have only recently (in the last year or two) acquired a taste for. Serve those gorgeous purple veggies sauteed, BBQ'd or roasted with a side of sour cream and I am in!! However, over the last week I have been trying to focus on eating a bit healthier so I decided to try something totally new and different - Roasted Beet Pizza!
