One of the greatest foods to enjoy during the summer is fresh garden herbs. We keep a variety of herbs in our garden each summer, it's a great way to save money since buying fresh herbs in a grocery store are pricey, especially for the small amount that you get. Herbs are an easy and healthy way to add so much flavor to so many dishes. I am no garden expert, however we have learned a lot about gardening in the past couple of years. If you only have space, or time, to garden one thing I … [Read more...]

Chicken Broccoli Stir Fry (30 Minutes)
Who else loves Chinese food as much as I do?!?! Well, American Chinese food, that is. I have never been to China, but, from what I understand, what we consider to be Chinese food isn't really authentic Chinese food. Not even close. Some day I hope to find out for myself. Although, my parents did find this out for themselves and didn't really enjoy the Chinese food while they were in China, but that was before I was even born, so I am sure some things have changed since they … [Read more...]
Peanut Butter Chocolate Granola (Dessert Granola)
Hi Friends, I hope you are doing well. There is so much going on in the world lately.

I just want to say that while things in the world are happening, we always have a basic need to eat. That's why food unites us, even if we still need to social distance. I know it's not solving problems, but creating … [Read more...]

We take our grilled cheese sandwiches very seriously there. Peanut butter sweet pickle sandwich is actually quite delicious. It's got that hint of natural … [Read more...]
Healthy Egg White Muffin Cups (Meal Prep Breakfast)
Hi friends, how are you doing? I hope you're well. Not sure if you know this about me, but I am a huge fan of eggs for breakfast. I have eggs in some form or another almost every single morning. Whether it's hard boiled eggs made the night before, a quick fried egg with toast for dipping into that runny yolk, a quick scramble, or an omelet on a Saturday morning (my husband's specialty that I refuse to learn, so that I can be pampered on the occasional weekend morning lol), there is rarely a … [Read more...]
