Quick and Easy Pressure Cooker Chili Bowls
Somewhere between school drop off and pickup I should be thinking about what's for dinner and at the very least, defrosting some meat and figuring out the rest later. There are some days I blink and dinner miraculously comes together with ease, and there are other days that I give in to the leftovers or frozen meals just to get everyone's bellies full. With so much talk about slow cookers and pressure cookers, I knew it was time I got out of my ...
The Perfect Oatmeal-Quinoa Cookies with #McCannsIrishOats #ad
When my first child was just starting solids, I was excited that she enjoyed everything I placed in front of her. She was a great eater. WAS is the operative word. Now I'm lucky if I can get 3 food groups in her a day. My middle daughter is a little easier to feed, and my little guy, well. He's not an eater at all. So you can say I have three picky-ish kids who don't all like the same foods and are driving their mama batty each day as she tries ...
Using Splenda as a Sugar Substitute in Mini Chocolate Chip Muffins #SweetSwaps

Did you know that March is National Nutrition Month? We don't need an excuse to eat healthy since we typically do, but setting examples for my kids on good food habits can sometimes be challenging, especially with my older daughter in school. She's pretty good about knowing her limits on "junk" foods, and when she's home we generally have meals with lean meats, fresh veggies, and complex carbs. My youngest daughter is an egg fanatic. She ...
Trying A New Recipe With #PastaFits! #MC #Sponsored
This holiday season, there are quite a few things on the dinner menu that aren't approved by my picky eaters. Sure, my girls can be very healthy easters, but their menu is limited. Creating a side dish of pasta is a sure fire way to get them to eat with the family, but plain pasta just doesn't cut it on the holiday table. Some creativity is necessary, and I find the best way to get kids to try something new is to include them in the kitchen when ...
