Somedays sugar is the best medicine. After this hard day, I think I deserve a little something something. This Strawberry Shortcake Croissant Sandwich is delicious and easy. The only thing I regret is that I devoured it too quickly. We discovered this recipe by accident or I should say my friend discovered it by accident. […]

We love to eat pancakes, we have them for dinner, for lunch, as a snack and of course for breakfast. I finally got smart and put together a healthy bulk pancake recipe to keep in our cupboards. Below I will show you how to make the bulk pancake recipe and a batch of it. My […]

This peanut butter apple crumble is amazing! The crumble taste like a delicious oatmeal cookie. We’ve been having cold and rainy days here so I have been in the mood to bake so our house will  warm up. Here where we live the houses dont’ have central heat or air conditioner but I usually can count on my oven […]

Aren’t these edible Worm and Flower Pot cute and fun? We made them over Easter, for a fun Easter Egg hunt we hosted with our family and friends at an orphanage.  I really wanted to spoil the kids at the orphanage since I know they don’t have mommies who will take the time to do […]

One of the things my kids love getting in the mail is fruit snacks. Living abroad has lots of perks but one of the down sides all those food snacks we can’t find here. On the other hand, it has challenged me to come up with  my own copycat recipes for a lot of things. Actually, […]

Contributing Writer: Leslie Cates from The Cozy Little Kitchen       I’m a Kentucky girl.  Here in the Bluegrass State we love our green beans!  They are especially good fresh from the garden in the summer time.  Although these aren’t garden fresh, they were still so deliciously dressed up in neat bundles tied with bacon and slathered in a […]

Oh, how I love Mexican inspired flavored food! Chipotle Black Bean Bacon Burgers with Mango Salsa is a fiesta in your mouth. The spicy smoked chipotle and the sweet mango come together to create an explosion of flavor.  My oldest took a quick bite before everyone sat down as he always does, I think he wants to alert everyone […]

Yopa! Greek yogurt is a delicious, new addition to my healthy lifestyle. Thanks to Yopa! for sponsoring this post! I have always been a yogurt lover but since I started my “healthy” eating kick back in January I have embraced Greek yogurt.  It’s thick and creamy and packed with nutrition. I had no idea that […]

Are you looking for a kid-friendly Easter breakfast? This is the easiest and cutest little food you will ever make.  These little chicks are absolutely adorable and easy to make. Before I had three kids I had more time to make cute food but now my mornings are rushed so there is no cutsie lunches leaving our […]

Homemade Granola Bars are so easy to make and they are much more cost-effective than the store-bought ones. In our family of 5 a package of store-bought granola bars are gone in a day if we all have one.  I usually opt to not have one since I have a love hate relationship with granola bars. I like them […]

Are you a pizza lover? If so you’re going to love this Italian Pizza Pie recipe. I love to make homemade pizza so when I first saw this over at Lindsay’s blog, Normal Cooking, I knew I could transform it into a healthier option for our family. I used Quinoa pizza dough and we made […]

Thank you to The Green Giant™ for being a sponsor. Show the Giant your surprise talent here! One of the things I enjoy about being a parent is discovering my kids hidden talents.  Some kids talents are on display for the world to see. You know the 4 year old who bust out playing Beethoven’s […]

Italian Zucchini Boats smell good while baking and they taste delish! I am so thankful that my husband is not a picky eater because it gives me the freedom to try new recipes and cook whatever I want to experiment with for that day! I am one of those “in the mood cooks” I don’t necessarily […]

We call this the Green Monster smoothie in my house and with March approaching it’s also called the Shamrock Smoothie. The Green Monster name get’s my kids excited and they think it’s funny to sip a Shamrock smoothie and the great thing of it all is they are drinking the same smoothie, he, he, he (I know […]

I absolutely love this Chicken Florentine Artichoke Bake! If you like Spinach Artichoke Dip you’re going to love this recipe! It’s perfect for the chilly evenings we’ve had here lately.  I don’ t know about your part of the world but somedays it’s raining non-stop here our Winter season means rain for us. We don’t have […]

Contributing Writer: Leslie Cates from The Cozy Little Kitchen      These lovely little pastries are the perfect confection to quickly whip up as a special dessert for your family.  While they look like something from a French patisserie (bakery), they are not at all time consuming or difficult to make!  This dessert is actually made with refrigerated pie […]
