Food, Wine, Family. Fun!
I bought my kids strawberries ... which they wanted, but didn't eat. I was going to make a strawberry cake, but saw a recipe for jam using the Instant Pot. My IP hasn't had much use lately beside making tea, so I thought I would give this recipe a try. It was super easy to… Continue reading Instant Pot Strawberry Jam
I'm back to buying fruit for my kids and then they're not eating it. Ugh. I had a pack of raspberries and cream cheese that needed to be used up and found this recipe that uses both of them. Perfect! These bite sized desserts squares are the best of two worlds - cheesecake and cake!… Continue reading Raspberry Cream Cheese Cake Squares
Back in college, I worked at a food truck at flea market and we made fried oreos (and funnel cakes) all the time. I ate way too many of them while I worked ... there's just something about warm and gooey oreo with a cup of a coffee. Yes, I ate them for breakfast. It's… Continue reading Easy Fried Oreos
My kids have been home virtual learning for over a year and they are hoping for some new hot lunch options. I whipped together a batch of these pepperoni pizza rolls and they loved them. They were simple and easy to make and can be customized to whatever your kiddos like. This recipe made enough… Continue reading Air Fryer Pepperoni Pizza Rolls
My family loves English muffins and we eat a lot of them. My son's favorite thing for breakfast is egg sandwiches - basically a fried egg, melted cheese, ham or bacon sandwiched between an English muffin. There's just something about those nooks and crannies that make for the perfect breakfast sandwich. I've mentioned before that… Continue reading English Muffin Bread
We're getting back to a bit of normalcy here and my daughter is starting lacrosse with her middle school. She was looking for a good snack to have before practice and we found this recipe for energy bites. They're packed full protein and nutritious snack to give her the energy to give it all her… Continue reading Peanut Butter Energy Bites
Who else has kiddos who ask for something at the grocery store and then they don't eat any of it? My kids do this all the time. Mom, can you get bananas? They ate 3 and the rest of the bunch start to over-ripen. As I was going through my meal-planning, I asked my kids… Continue reading Strawberries and Chocolate Baked Oatmeal
I'm going back to the archives for my blog to start redoing recipes I've shared. This recipe goes all the way back to 2010! It was one of the muffin recipes I made all the time, but it's been a long time since I have made them. I figured now was the perfect time since… Continue reading Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Muffins
I barely baked cookies over the Christmas holiday and was in the mood to do some baking the other day. Cookies it was! My kids like snickerdoodles - they're also super easy to make. This recipe has a little bit of a twist with the addition of maple syrup and they're so good. I don't… Continue reading Maple Snickerdoodles
My air fryer has been getting a lot of use with my new way of eating. I've been making air fried chicken tenders (so good!) and experimenting with veggies. I've been wanting to make air fried raviolis and whipped together a batch of them for my kiddos and husband. It was a great way to… Continue reading Air Fried Ravioli
