Super Bowl Sunday has come and gone, but I have a couple of recipes for you anyway because they turned out too yummy not to post until next year. Also, you don’t need Super Bowl to eat them, you just need any day that ends in “Y!” And we have lots of those. These are teeny tiny very lean (read: [...]

Last week I was in the mood for pork and applesauce but I wanted to do something with it in the crockpot. I found this recipe and I modified it and it was DELICIOUS. I can’t wait to make it again! Short and simple, it literally took me 3 minutes to throw it together. If you make it, let me [...]

I have made fish tacos four times in the past two weeks and I have failed to take a picture each and every time! Every time I make these, I devour them so fast and then vow to take a picture the next time and so I make them again with the dual purpose of eating them and of course taking a [...]

Do you like pumpkin? I LOVE pumpkin. My sister, however, hates it. Or once hated it, that is, until she had this pumpkin recipe that can make a pumpkin lover out of a pumpkin hater. Today I share with you a favorite from Paula Dean called, “Pumpkin Gooey!” I made it a couple Thanksgivings ago and my sister still brings [...]

It’s peanut butter jelly time! Peanut butter jelly time! (You’re welcome. Feel free to sing that in your head all day.) OK so this recipe is simultaneously oddly weird and intriguing which is why I had to try it! I found this recipe on the lid of my Smucker’s All Natural Peanut Butter jar, of all places. That’s pretty creative actually. But [...]

This is another one of my annual favorites, Ice Cream Pumpkin Pies! This recipe is in National Geographic Kids, only I make it with a little variation that I picked up from my best friend who has so many great ideas all the time. (Thanks Clairanne!) This involves making your own pumpkin ice cream (yum!) Here’s how you make it. [...]

It’s FALL!! Most of my friends know I have an obsession with all things pumpkin, so I am sharing with you some of my favorite fall recipes including my low-fat Pumpkin Chip Muffins. Now, I have posted this recipe before quite honestly but it’s so yummy it bears worth repeating. My 3 year old’s birthday is in November, so I [...]

A couple weeks ago I wanted to make this fabulous recipe I found in Martha Stewart Living which I have a subscription for but I really have no idea how or why (but I like it). The recipe is called “Long Fusilli with Potatoes and Haricots Verts in Lemon Sauce” and it sounded divine. The main reason being because the [...]

On Tuesday, September 20, the 70th Anniversary Edition of the Disney animated classic “Dumbo,” hits Blu-ray for the first time. In honor of that, Disney sent me some kid-friendly recipes and we tried one of them that I just have to share! Mini Corn Dogs! My kids love corn dogs, that is their date night food. When mommy and daddy [...]

I have the yummiest homemade granola energy bar recipe ever!! They’re filled with healthy protein and are all natural and even sort of low calorie too! It is so easy to make and the kids and I love it. It’s really a wonderful healthy alternative to cookies and crackers and filling as a snack too, they were gone pretty quickly. [...]
