I can't tell you the last time we've seen the sun here in PA. It's really depressing and makes me want to make hearty soups and stews...and this recipe will not disappoint. It's a super easy recipe to make and takes less than 30 minutes to make. Perfect for dinner during the week!This soup was… Continue reading White Bean, Kale & Sausage Soup

After going through a couple different options with Madeline, she settled on peanut butter chocolate chip. I knew these would make a great morning snack for her during the school day.2 cups whole wheat white… Continue reading Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Muffins
I have never made a turkey before and thought it might be a good idea to try cooking a turkey breast first to see how I did. I know it's not too different than a chicken...just a longer cooking time. I found a great recipe to make a turkey breast in the slow cooker. Score!… Continue reading Tuscan Style Turkey Breast
How is this week Thanksgiving already? Where did November go? I thought things would slow down since Madeline's cheer season ended earlier this month, but somehow we just filled the rest of the month with other things to do. Granted, I do enjoy having my Monday and Wednesday nights and Saturday mornings free...I'm missing hanging… Continue reading Lentil Beef Stew
