Not long ago I posted a picture of our supper meal on Facebook. Someone commented and said, "Your salad looks good! I feel like when I put salad as a side I just sprinkle some cheese and it's kind of boring." I totally know where she's coming from because I've been there! I got really… Continue reading Not Your Average Side Salad

New Recipes and My Life With A Picky Eater
this post contains affiliate links New recipes don't have to be life-altering. Sometimes a "new recipe" is just a different way of preparing or serving something you already know how to make! That's the case with two new recipes I've tried recently. It's the perfect way to get out of a rut and "try something… Continue reading New Recipes and My Life With A Picky Eater
It’s A Busy Week {Menu Monday}

Meal Prep: Recipes I’m Loving
Lately I've been trying to incorporate meal prep into my weekend to-do list. I love having things ready to go for breakfast, lunches and snacks - and it's always nice to have some of the work done when it comes time for supper.

What To Eat When The AC Is Broken
Two weeks ago we turned the AC on in our house - we hadn't used it much at all since late November - and we discovered that some time in the last month or so, our unit had met an untimely death. Being an extremely hot natured person, I can deal with not having heat… Continue reading What To Eat When The AC Is Broken
Comfort Food to the Rescue! {Menu Monday}

I can only think of two other times in the past 7 years that Paul has taken a sick day. He usually just "powers through"… Continue reading Comfort Food to the Rescue! {Menu Monday}
5 Recipes You Should Make This Weekend

If you're looking for… Continue reading 5 Recipes You Should Make This Weekend
Whole 30 Menu Plan: One Week of Meals!
Before we get started, I just want to clear this up - I'm not personally doing Whole 30. I love cheese and bread way too much to even consider it. However, I'm a big fan of people choosing a healthy eating lifestyle that works for and motivates them - and for my sister and her… Continue reading Whole 30 Menu Plan: One Week of Meals!
Chicken Sausage and Potato Chowder
Since everyone else is sharing recipes from their Whole 30 and Keto diets, I thought I'd swim against the current and share a recipe loaded with carbs, dairy and processed meat! Ha! 🙂 Actually, this is not a horribly unhealthy soup as long as you don't eat the whole pot...which is easier said than done.… Continue reading Chicken Sausage and Potato Chowder
Game Changing Recipes of 2017
Since I try to "mix it up" in the kitchen with new recipes each month, it's always fun to look back over the year and determine the recipe standouts. I scrolled through this year's recipe blog posts and found the recipes that I've made multiple times. Most of these recipes have been made at least… Continue reading Game Changing Recipes of 2017
