I luh-hove Mexican food. For proof, check out this Menus on Mondays meal plan. I didn’t realize it until after I posted it, but three out of the six dinner meals would be considered tex-mex. I’ve always found it odd when people claim they don’t like Mexican food. Take my mother for example, she… 
By Guest Blogger, Laura Sieckmann from www.ecomomadventures.com I like to think that I am a lucky mom because our (first born) little 14 month old has been open to trying all kinds of new foods and so far she seems to favor veggies over fruits. Who is to say what her tastes will be like years…
”You’re kids must not be very picky,” a friend said to me the other day. I wondered why she thought that, and she mentioned my Menus on Mondays series and how my kids must be really adventurous. I thought about what she had said. My oldest kid will eat pretty much anything, except for beans…
Whenever I hear the phrase “cooking with kids,” I think Ants on a Log, trail mix, or something along those lines. I mean, because who wants to actually cook with your kids? Well, just call me Masochistic McGee, because that’s exactly what I did…. Yep, we did a little cooking gourmet with kids! And, although…
I figure most of us are lovers of Pinterest. I happen to be an addict. I find inspiration to make my life brighter, happier and more delicious. The only problem… Sometimes my pins get buried in my boards never to resurface again. So, I thought I’d go through some of pins and pull out a…
There’s no better way to tell your family you love them than with a wonderful meal. Dining out isn’t necessary to make a super-special supper. If you have something to celebrate, consider eating in. Here’s my go-to menu for any special occasion: Spinach & Feta Stuffed Chicken breasts, with asparagus and brown rice with a…
In my opinion, diets don’t work. Not long term anyways. I think you can lose a lot of weight on a diet (depending on which one), but diets are nearly impossible to maintain. You can’t go through life not eating carbs or eating all of your food from freezer dinners. It’s just not possible….
New Year’s Resolutions to eat better, or spend Less Money? Well, here’s the deal. We have Christmas dinner at our house, and it is one of those times when I do it up, BIG. Use those recipes with nine ingredients- to make green beans. Pull ALL the food out of the pantry to try to…
I’m finding it only slightly ironic that I’m sharing this giveaway after over-hauling my pantry yesterday. One of the hardships I was met with during that challenge was finding accommodations for my recently acquired olive oil collection. Not long past, my friends at Food Lion sent me a sampling of their Taste of Inspirations Olive Oil line….
Since the day I was born, I’ve had the same thing for Christmas dinner. It’s an interesting holiday menu: Hamloaf (a meatloaf made with a variety of ground meats with a sweet glaze), gum drop salad, sausage wild rice casserole, scalloped potatoes, something green (that changes from year to year), and Sister Schubert’s Parker Rolls….
A Perfect Christmas Cookie Recipe for Your Upcoming Cookie Exchange! Ah, Christmas time! One of my faaavoritte times of the year. I love Christmas! I love the decorations, the scents and the smells. And quite honestly, I cannot get around the whole Christmas season without a little bit of peppermint. It seems that these days,…
Bad news folks, that food leftover from Thanksgiving? It’s about to expire. Yep, it’d better be eaten or it better get gone. So this weekend, I ate the family and I have been eating the heck out of Thankgiving leftovers. We’ve made frittatas, we’ve made mashed potato and stuffing cakes, and today I’ve had turkey…
