Happy Monday! It's the start of a new week, and the start of a new blog name. Welcome to Grub Delite!
Lite Bacon Blue Cheese Deviled Eggs
TJ Dogs (aka Bacon-Wrapped Mexican Hot Dogs)
You guys! Just because you eat healthy or follow Weight Watchers (as I do) doesn't mean you're only allowed to ogle scrumptious food that makes your mouth water. You can eat it too! If you've ever lived in San Diego you probably need no explanation for the delicacy known as the TJ Dog. But for …

Pineapple Swiss & Insta-Pot Teriyaki Chicken Sliders
Dieting sucks. I guess that's why the health experts don't recommend dieting, but instead changing your lifestyle. For the past five years, I have been on and off Weight Watchers. When I first started the blog, I hadn't yet started WW and that's pretty clearly reflected in the recipes I posted in 2012, and partially …

Skinny Watermelon Margaritas
Hope everyone had a good long weekend over Memorial Day. Schools are letting out, the pools are opening up, and summer is kicking into gear. It sure felt like summer here in Illinois where we had 100 degree days all weekend long. As a kid, I remember what a cool, refreshing treat watermelon was on …
Mozzarella Stuffed Buffalo Chicken Meatballs
As I was assembling this buffalo chicken meatball dish last night, I wondered what I would write to go along with the recipe. I know who would be all over this recipe, I thought. And like that, I was lost in memories with my buddy, Ernesto, and all our crazy adventures, as I methodically formed, …

Skinny Pepperoni Pizza Bites
When I first designed Game Day Grub for a writing class, my concept for the blog was that it would be sports-oriented. I believe that sports can bring people together to create community, as food can. Watching sports provides camaraderie – whether it’s by rooting for the same team or through friendly rivalries – and …
Green Chili & Cheddar Macaroni Salad
Growing up, camping isn’t something the Ingersols did a lot of…or ever. In fact, I don’t think I had ever slept in a tent until I was an adult. But it turns out I really love being outside, enjoying the elements. There’s probably no better state to enjoy the great outdoors than Colorado. Three years …
Insta-Pot Pulled Pork
My dad tells me I’m a porker. Now without context, that sounds mighty insulting. But according to my parents, I was formed on pulled pork. My folks were living in my birth state of North Carolina, attending Duke University for post-grad study, when Mom became pregnant with me. During her pregnancy, she’d crave North Carolina …
Mini BLAT-Salad Sandwiches
Last week’s Greek Breakfast Casserole does not exactly fall within Craig's wheelhouse since my significant other has an egg aversion. So I've been thinking about foods that he likes and I am really pumped to share this week’s recipe with you. But first, some background. I’ve heard stories from Craig's Grandma Blean – and echoed by …
Greek Breakfast Casserole To Begin Your Day
Wow! It’s been some time since my last blog post, but I’ve returned to start sharing recipes and stories once again. My life has changed quite a bit over my five-year hiatus from Game Day Grub. My brother got married and the Ingersols happily added Michelle to the family. I lost my last living grandparent …
