I’m always trying to find new ways to get veggies in my people. Since My Little Man ate a head-and-a-half of Romaine for lunch yesterday – by itself, like an apple – it’s not that I’m worried about rickets or anything. I like expanding our palates, though, and it’s always fun to cook and eat… Continue reading Grilled Zucchini Pizza

Menu Plan Monday – February 27, 2016
Last week’s slow week? It’s long gone. We’re back in business week with lots going on, so our meal plan is going to reflect that. I’m also going to be picking up my first Zaycon chicken order and prepping all 40 pounds for the freezer, so …. expect to see some chicken on the menu… Continue reading Menu Plan Monday – February 27, 2016
Healthy Burrito Bowls
I planned to make something new last week – a new kind of healthy Mexican recipe that the Big Helper and I were excited about. Until one ingredient didn’t behave as expected. At the very last minute, I needed to change things up, and these burrito bowls were the result. We really liked them. The veggies… Continue reading Healthy Burrito Bowls

It seems as if each time there’s a mashed potato-eating holiday where my mom and I are together, she asks if I’m going to make potato cakes with my leftovers. I always answer know. “What are they” I always ask. “How do you make them?” You’d think I’d remember eating them if she likes them… Continue reading Not-Your-Average Potato Cakes
Mom’s Baked Corn
This is a family staple for us, and no family gathering or holiday would be the same without it! It’s simple and easy to make, transports well, and holds when necessary. My great-grandmother loved it, and she complimented my mom on this dish every time she made it. Since Grandma was an amazing cook in… Continue reading Mom’s Baked Corn
Homemade Potato Chips
Do you ever have cooking experiments go wrong? That’s how I ended up with these chips. When another idea didn’t work out and I was left with a bowlful of sliced potatoes, I decided to try making chips with them – and they couldn’t have turned out better. We ate every single one. Immediately. People… Continue reading Homemade Potato Chips
Guilty Good Green Beans
I came across this recipe earlier today, and decided to break out of my bean boredom and try it. Who doesn’t love another way to prepare a basic vegetable? I was lacking a few ingredients and so played around with it a bit, but we loved it. It’s simple, quick, and full of flavor. My family… Continue reading Guilty Good Green Beans
