A Healthy Start {Recipe: Cheesy Slaw Quiche}
When we first discovered Ella was struggling in school, one of her teachers suggested giving her a healthy, protein packed start to her day. We had heard that foods such as milk, cheese, yogurt and other protein packed breakfast items, versus a carb laden breakfast, could help kids remain focused and stay fueled until lunchtime….
Steamy Kitchen: Healthy Asian Recipes {Recipe: Mango Brûlée}
I hope you all enjoyed my post about Jennifer Perillo’s new cookbook, Homemade with Love. I’m back today, sharing a cookbook by another friend: Steamy Kitchen’s Healthy Asian Favorites by Jaden Hair. I’m sure you all know Jaden from her blog, Steamy Kitchen, and if you follow blogs at all you’ve probably seen mentions of…
Homemade with Love {Recipe: Herbed Skillet Croutons}
An interesting thing has been happening in the world of blogging over the past couple of years. You may have noticed the surge in “from blogger to book deals” happening. It seems like every time I open my browser, I see an announcement of a blogger who is now writing a cookbook. There are some…
Recipe: B.A.T. Pasta Salad with Avocado Ranch Dressing
Have you ever enjoyed a B.A.T. sandwich?? B.A.T. is what I prefer over a B.L.T. Skip the lettuce and replace it with a tasty avocado. Talk about flavor! Yum! I decided to take that favorite sandwich of mine and turn it into a pasta salad. Cinco de Mayo is coming up and you know you’ll…
Simplifying Spring {Recipe: Decadent Scrambled Eggs}
I’m partnering with KRAFT on this wonderful brunch recipe, and chatting about my current obsession… farmhouse living. Friends, if you follow me on Instagram and Facebook, you know I’ve been doing a lot of dreaming lately… some may call it obsessing, but I’ll stick with dreaming. You see, a house we have loved for…
Too Old For Foo-Foo? {Recipe: Lemon Grass Strawberry Daiquiri}
I always feel a bit self conscious drinking Strawberry Daiquiris. Do you? I don’t really know why I feel that way, but I do. Perhaps it’s because my very first ever alcoholic drink was a Strawberry Daiquiri. I’ve always felt like it was the “safe” “foo-foo” drink… and at my old age I thought if…
Plain as Vanilla {Recipe: Vanilla Vanilla Muffins}
Do you ever feel like your life has gone a bit vanilla? I mean, I love vanilla, don’t get me wrong, but especially after a long winter I feel like things have been vanilla for far too long. I’m ready to add some spice!
Shrimp Walnut Salad with Cheddar Jack Bacon Dressing Recipe
I was hired by Kraft to create a recipe using their Kraft Fresh Take Cheddar Jack and Bacon mixtures. This post is about my experience. I’m talking Bacon again this week with a new #KraftFreshTake challenge! You may remember that with my first #KraftFreshTake challenge I made these amazing Cheesy Bacon Bite appetizers. Now, I’m…
Spring Into Lunch with Glad {Recipe: Salted Caramel Almonds}
Amazing lunches have never been my strong suit. Dinner? I can do. Lunch? It’s always been hard for me to create lunches my kids will enjoy and that won’t get thrown out with the trash when lunch is over. I used to simply do sandwiches for them… I’d add a fruit and some pretzels or…
