Here is a favorite I have been utilizing a lot! It is easy to make-ahead and have a quick breakfast for on-the-run mornings. It has nearly half the calories of the macdonalds version! It is a fabulous and sustaining meal with much less fat when you use the turkey meat varieties. Compare to macdonalds: 450 […]

If I had a dollar for every time one of my kids complained about something I set out for a meal on the table, well, I’d be in Tahiti living it up. 🙂 So, when I decided to make cornbread a main dish for dinner for them tonight, and heard cheers all around, I knew […]

So I found this recipe on pinterest and it has become my new favorite go-to snack when I am on the go! I have adapted it a bit and that’s half the beauty of it, you can mix up the ingredients to your liking! I can’t find the original recipe unfortunately, so you will just […]

For those ladies (or gents) wanting to make homemade rolls but don’t like how long it takes, this is your solution! I tried them the other day and they are awesome! They were all gone that day. This recipe yielded 14 large rolls. If you make them a little larger, you can use them for […]

Now that I’ve had my fourth kid, I’m very familiar with this current season I’m in and taking it on full guns: get-in-shape-after-baby-time! When I came across this abdominal workout series, I realized it is a gold mine of ab exercises! I’ve tried many different ab workouts, and they vary from only some-what effective, or […]

I accidentally discovered this awesome microderm type facial a few days ago! It started as something I found on a tutorial that used lemon juice and sugar but I found that the sugar felt like it was scratching and cutting my skin and did not leave it feeling polished or smooth. So I got thinking […]

I found this recipe on Pinterest, tried it and they turned out great! They took a while to set, so I put them in the freezer for a good while, pulled them out, let them thaw a bit and they stayed together better. I need to wrap them individually in wax paper and bag them […]

Hello friends! So, I have made this little recipe more than a few times, and especially when losing baby-weight it is a frequent flyer in my kitchen. So, I thought I’d share with you.

My sons love to drink smoothies (as do I!), which is a healthy, easy, quick way to get them satisfied without having to rack my brain for a new idea! So, a few minutes ago my middle son asked me for a “pink smoothie!” (he had tried a coffee chocolate one earlier this morning and […]

Ok, so i’m not a huge shrimp fan, but this dish was AWESOME!! I didn’t invent it, but I did tweak it a little bit, and it was so good, it was one of those meals that when I ate it, there was NOTHING I would have changed about it! ( I don’t know if […]
