A couple of years ago, in our quest to eat a little healthier, my husband and I switched from eating ground beef to eating ground turkey and chicken. I am not going to lie, for this meat and potatoes girl it was a hard transition. Now I can't imagine making tacos with ground beef anymore. I still eat steaks, but that is all we do as far as red meats go. I am constantly looking for great … [Read more...]
My son and I love to snack. I am sure he learned it from me. I could eat several small snacks a day and go without the large meals. My husband, on the other hand, is a health nut and will only snack on healthy things that are good for him. I usually don't like those things... until now! Dole just introduced Real Fruit Bites that are actual chunks of dried fruit covered in yogurt and … [Read more...]
One of my biggest struggles with TJ is his eating habits. I thought I would be the mom who got her child to eat sushi and hummus. Vegetables were going to be a part of his vocabulary from day one. It was going to be fantastic! Well what a fantasy that was. We have struggled with the eating thing since he moved to table food. It seems like my perfect little boy was no longer perfect and … [Read more...]
For Easter brunch I wanted to make something that would be easy. I was after all 34 weeks pregnant. I found this easy recipe on the McCormick website that used a cake mix. It was so fast and simple and yet delicious that it will definitely be a part of my baked goods routine for brunches. Easy Cinnamon Crumb Cake Makes 24 servings. Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 35 minutes 2 … [Read more...]
I am not sure about your family, but one staple in our family is chicken. We eat a lot of chicken! I love it because it is so versatile and you can make a lot of different dishes with it. My husband likes it because it is healthy and cheap. If you purchase chicken breasts on sale, chicken recipes are pretty inexpensive. We recently made the Mouthwatering Baked Buffalo Chicken Recipe from … [Read more...]
My husband and I are a little health conscious. Well, okay, my husband is and I just kinda follow along. We try to eat a healthy balanced diet, but sometimes when eating out it becomes more and more difficult. While we cook mostly at home, we do enjoy treating ourselves every once in a while. We were very curious when we heard about LongHorn Steakhouse's new menu that includes five meals … [Read more...]
We all have those brands that we just trust and feel comfortable feeding our kids. For me Kraft is one of those brands. Between pasta and peanut butter, my son rarely eats anything else. As for my husband and I, we use Kraft products in our cooking as well. The other day I tried out the new Fresh Take Cheese & Breadcrumb Mix to spice up our chicken dinner and absolutely loved it. … [Read more...]
My husband and I enjoy our dinners together. I wish that we could all eat as a family every night, but with my late work schedule, my husband often has to feed our son before I get home. Lately, as the weather has been colder, we have been enjoying all different types of soup. Recently Bertolli challenged us to try their new Bertolli Meal Soups. Bertolli Meal Soups come in Chicken … [Read more...]
We are huge football fanatics in our house! While our Colts didn't do what we had hoped they would have, we still enjoy watching the games every Sunday. We are especially excited to host the Super Bowl this February. With all of the football hoopla happening around us, of course it made me think of food. Food and football just go hand in hand! Recently Tyson and Collective Bias invited … [Read more...]
Is it a fruit or is it a vegetable? While the controversy may continue (The US Supreme Court ruled that the tomato is a vegetable for culinary purposes) I know that this is one product that I couldn't live without. I love tomato juice, fresh tomatoes in my salads, chopped tomatoes in my tacos, and just about everywhere you can add it to a meal. Every year I try to grow tomatoes in pots that … [Read more...]
