Are you looking for something comforting? Something creamy? Something garlicky? If so, you have come to the right place! This Sun-dried Tomato and Spinach Alfredo with Chicken is honestly as good as any you will find in a restaurant. I used a heavy hand with the garlic in this dish, and that flavor combined with the creamy sauce and the sun-dried tomatoes and spinach is just amazing.
I can not think of a flavor combination that I like better than chocolate and peanut butter. It is by far my biggest weakness as far as food goes. I am pretty much addicted to Reese’s, and don’t even get me started on those Reese’s eggs that are in my face every time I leave my house this time of year. Another thing that I REALLY love, is a nice fudgy maybe even gooey brownie. So, I got to thinking – and the result is these fudgy peanut butter swirl brownies.
Our house is crazy almost all of the time. I have four little kids, and one husband who is the craziest of all. We are constantly on the go, and don’t usually have time for a dinner that takes a crazy long time to prepare. The problem with meals that can be prepared really quickly, is that a lot of them tend to be bland and pretty unhealthy. These Turkey Lettuce Wraps are super flavorful, fresh and won’t leave you feeling completely weighed down after eating them. Plus – they are soooo very delicious!
My son is honestly the pickiest eater I know. I mean this kid lives off of peanut butter and Nutella sandwiches and I have given up on getting him to eat any vegetables. As a mom, I love making food that my kids are actually going to eat and enjoy. For my son, “Colby’s Pancakes” are one of the only things that I know I can make for him and he will clean his plate every single time. Really though, the whole family loves these pancakes, so they are a weekend morning regular around here for sure. It probably doesn’t hurt that they are usually full of chocolate chips, fruit or sprinkles and topped with butter!
I have really been in the mood for salads lately. I don’t know if it is the weather warming up, or the thought that bathing suit season is very quickly approaching. Whatever the reason, the salad cravings have been coming on strong. This pesto caprese salad is an easy one to throw together. What I love about this salad is that I can make the main part of it one day, and enjoy it for lunch for a few more days.
I always go to the grocery store with the healthiest of plans. I buy all of these fruits and vegetables and then we only eat a portion of them before they have gone bad. I feel like bananas are the worst about turning brown before we get around to eating them. Well, I’ve got a use for all of those brown bananas! This Banana Bread with Streusel Topping uses two overripe bananas, and it is the moistest banana bread you will ever have. It also has a decadent streusel topping because, why not?!
Lasagna is great, but making it is honestly a pain. There are so many dishes involved! It also takes a pretty long time, so it is definitely not something I am going to throw together for a quick meal during the week. This lasagna solves both of those problems. The entire thing is made in just this skillet. There is no pot used to boil noodles, no colander to strain them and not even an extra dish to bake the lasagna in. It also cooks entirely on the stove, and takes much less time than a traditional lasagna.
April has just begun and it is already completely crazy in our house. We have a sport or other activity almost every single night, and to avoid eating out constantly, I am trying to plan easy meals that we can come home to. I try to incorporate my slow cooker into my meal planning as much as I can when things get crazy, because I love being able to come home to a delicious meal all ready to go. This Slow Cooker Barbacoa Beef is honestly so easy, so flavorful and can be enjoyed in so many ways. It also has the added bonus of being low-cal and low-carb!
Here is it: bourbon, bacon, biscuits, butter and brown sugar. Shew! Okay, so… have you guys ever seen that episode of Sex and the City where Miranda can’t stop eating the cake? She throws the cake away and then just ends up eating it out of the trash can. Well this is that good. I … Read more
Breakfast time on the weekend is one of my favorite times. We are always so busy during the week, and breakfast is almost always a very rushed experience. Honestly, I hardly ever find the time to eat until way after lunch time. When the weekend rolls around, though, and we are all home, we take … Read more
