Food, Wine, Family. Fun!
The weather has finally turned to fall this past week and I've been in the mood to make soup. I had a half a head of cauliflower left from last week and went searching on pinterest to find a soup recipe that included cauliflower and found this recipe. It was perfect because squash was on… Continue reading Butternut and Cauliflower Soup
No one can resist saucy, cheese enchiladas that are packed full of ground turkey and black beans ... except my son. Ha! He's getting more vocal about what he wants to eat and the other night when I made these easy enchiladas, he wanted nothing to do with them. I decided it was a night… Continue reading Turkey Black Bean Enchiladas
It's finally apple season here in PA and I couldn't wait to start baking and enjoy fresh, crisp apples from our local orchard. I picked up a basket this past weekend to get us through until we can get to pick our own...plus it's still warm here and the bees will be out in full… Continue reading Upside Down Apple Honey Cake
I've mentioned in before that we're big fans of granola. I love using it as a topping for yogurt or a smoothie bowl and my daughter eats it like cereal. She was a little hesitant when I said I was making carrot cake granola, but it turned out really good. I love the little bits… Continue reading Carrot Cake Granola
My friend Dawn shared a picture of this salad on her Facebook page and it looked so good, I knew I had to make it!

Last week was my kid's end of camp celebration and Madeline asked to me to make brownies. I've not had much luck making brownies from scratch in the past, but wanted to give it another shot. I found this recipe for brownies and it looked pretty easy and it was! Even better, they came out… Continue reading Lunch Lady Brownies

This recipe makes four one-cup servings, but could easily… Continue reading Sweet Corn Oatmeal with Peaches
As I've mentioned before, I'm working to incorporate more meatless meals into our life and this recipe was perfect for that! I love mushrooms and this open-faced sandwich did not disappoint. Sautéed mushrooms and onions top a piece of crusty bread with ricotta and then topped with mozzarella cheese and baked in the oven until… Continue reading Mushroom Ricotta Open-Faced Sandwiches
Sloppy Joe sandwiches are one of the meals that remind me of being a kid. We used to eat them pretty regularly, but with the sauce that comes from a can. I've made them several times for my kids and found that if I put anything between a bun, my son will eat it. That's… Continue reading Turkey Sloppy Joes
Back to school is almost here for my kiddos! I've been working on a list of snacks to make for them since I know they'll both need something during the day and then something after school. The camp they go to provides breakfast and two snacks daily, so I've gotten off pretty easy this summer.… Continue reading Snickerdoodle Puppy Chow
