Ever tried a turkey burger? You should now! Many restaurants offer this healthier alternative, and it’s tasty too! Or, try making it yourself. Here, I used ground turkey, chopped onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper and voilà!  Homemade turkey burgers!

Do you ever have one of those days, where you need a quick pick me up? Instead of indulging yourself in sweets, try stopping by your local nursery. The bright colors and varieties of local and exotic plants will surely help bring a smile to you face! Unless you’re highly allergic to flowers. If so, you can just imagine yourself at the nursery with these pictures ;p

It’s barbecue time in Memphis! When people think about barbecue, they imagine maybe a family picnic with some fresh watermelon, rich apple pie, and racks of BBQ ribs! Actually, in Memphis, it’s BBQ 24/7. Although known for their dry rub, I prefer my BBQ drenched in wet tangy sauce.  Here, the beau and I had early supper at The Bar-B-Q Shop in Midtown Memphis. First up was BBQ Nachos. I think this was one of my favorite dish because it combines two of my favorite food together. The nacho seasoning was a bit salty, but there was a nice smoke flavor from the hearty amount of pulled pork. Next, the wet half rack consisted of eight “fall off the bones” ribs. The outside had a nice crisp while the inside was super tender and smoky. Finally, my pick from The Bar-B-Q Shop, BBQ spaghetti! While the noodles were a bit overcooked, the pulled pork was tender and it literally melted in your mouth. Instead of marinara, the dish was covered with a sweet, light, and tangy BBQ sauce. Delish!

Who would have thought so much flavor can be packed into this small Chinese pancake or crepe.  I got this light snack at Chang’s Bubble Tea Cafe in Cordova, Tennessee. This flaky crepe is filled will pork, mushrooms, and  green onions. For those who want to add a little kick, the rooster brand chili paste is a nice dip. Hao chi!
