November Challenge. Phew! I made it through my November Challenge. At the end of 30 days, I prepared a total of 36 "new to me" recipes. I found this challenge to be...well...challenging. I'm busy running a household and raising three teenagers and trying to keep a puppy from demolishing every scrap of paper or [...]
November Recipes. I still can't believe that I have completed the process of making 26 "new to me" recipes. Only 4 more days to go! I was talking to my mom the other day and I told her that I thought I would crush my November Challenge. Her response was, "and do you know why?". [...]
November Recipes. Happy Monday! I managed to complete Week 3 of my November Challenge. If you missed Week 1 and Week 2, be sure to check those out. As in the rounds before, I've included links to where I've pinned the recipe to Pinterest. I'll also let you know if I made any substitutions [...]
November Recipes. This round of recipes that I tried for my November Challenge were more along the easy-peasy lines. If you miss round 1 of recipes, you can find that here. In Friday’s post, I talked about how insane my week decided to be. Yet somehow, I did manage to try out a new [...]
November Challenge. Even though we are only 6 days into November, I'm still excited that my November Challenge is going well. Since my review of making a recipe a day would be a rather cumbersome read at the end of 30 days, I thought that I'd break it into smaller posts and fill you [...]
Mimosa. Sparkling wine....orange juice....and....strawberries. During these long days of summer this sounds like a little slice of heaven. I know, I know... Wait, it's supposed to be champagne. No, there's triple sec. Is that a Buck's Fizz? Are you sure you have it right? I think mimosa sounds nicer whether there is triple sec, Grand [...]
Next up on our trying out some new recipes was Chicken Basil Meatloaf. I went to my new favorite go-to recipe source PaleOMG. The recipe can be found here. I did make some changes. It calls for fresh parsley, but I had this amazing basil that my niece had grown in her garden, dried, and [...]
I've decided that maybe I'll be Paleo-ish. Yes, I like this term better. You might remember that when I decided to go wheat-free, my husband decided to jump on my healthy bandwagon, but he prefers the paleo version of life. Well, I cook the meals and while I am mostly trying to accommodate (sorry, but [...]
Last night I made buffalo chicken casserole. If you are looking for some good recipes you should check out Juli Bauer at Paleomg She gives the recipe there in a sneak peek at her cookbook. I'll be honest, even though I'd heard of spaghetti squash, I had no idea what one was before this meal. [...]
Most days for breakfast I am an eggs and bacon kind of girl. Then there are the days that I have somewhere to be and need something quick. I have a ninja blender and just throw the following ingredients into one of the single cups and blend away: Ice Almond milk (I use unsweetened vanilla) [...]
