I'm working on getting back to blogging regularly now that the spring sports season is coming to an end. There were only a few days in all of April and May that we didn't have something going on which led me to make quick and easy dinners to get us to practices or games.

Instant Pot Mac and Cheese
Last month, I picked up an Instant Pot during the Prime Day sale on Amazon. I've been eyeing one and it was finally time to bite the bullet and get one.

Quinoa Mac & Cheese
My little guy loves mac & cheese...I mean, really loves it. I know it's the one thing that he will always eat without fighting me. He's starting to be picky and also with sitting at the table to eat, so needless to say, our dinners have not been very enjoyable. I'm looking forward to this… Continue reading Quinoa Mac & Cheese
Pasta Pie
I've seen pasta pies all over Pinterest and I thought it was about time that I try one out. My husband is not a fan of spaghetti, so I hoped he would like this.
