BBQ Cereal Snack Mix
As I'm oft inclined to do when invited to a meeting, I made a snack. The hospitality nerd in me just can't show up to something, in the middle of the afternoon, empty handed. Especially when I know its normally "after school snack" time. I mean what's a girl to do?...
Salmon and Summer Vegetable Sheet Pan Meal | Foodie Friday
One pan meals. We all talk about how much we LOVE an easy meal that uses one pan, but when it comes down to it... we forget how much we love them until its time to clean up dinner. Insert the sheet pan meal (ta-dah)! I don't know about you, but I hate unloading the...
Green Smoothies

Keeping Organized in the Kitchen
I’ve often heard my mom say, “The key to cooking anything on a weeknight is just a little organization.” And believe me, my mom could cook just about anything on a week night including a fancy dinner for 8 (but that’s a different post). Now that I’m in a “mom”...
take them a meal
I can think of nothing more that a family with a newborn needs (maybe besides some extra cash and sleep) than to have meals covered the first couple weeks they are home. And that same philosophy applies when people have had surgery or a stressful week. We have been...
