How to take this Snickerdoodle Recipe to the next level Facebook | Pinterest | Instagram His face fell and he said, wait…they are exactly the same?? And that was when I realized his plan was not to buy a duplicate set of sheets. He was trying to impress me with a whole new Fancy Set, and had researched to find a really nice brand. (Apparently he doesn’t know that I already had high sheet standards?...

This popular British condiment is usually served with cheese platters, but can also transform a simple ham sandwich or used as one of the components of the Ploughman’s lunch. (see picture below) . There are not really many dishes that this relish would not complement. British people love their pickles. Many foods get pickled, from onions to even eggs (yes, this is true). If you like spicy mustard, you will love this piccalilli....

My youngest and I are totally obsessed with Pickled Jalapeños. In fact, we go through so many jars because we love them on our tacos that much. She and I are often fighting for the last one at the bottom of the jar. I’m so pumped to have this pickled jalapeño recipe for you (and her and I!) so that we can all have pickled jalapeños whenever our hearts desire....

Facebook | Pinterest | Instagram Well even if I can’t follow basic instructions on government forms, at least I can make dinner. That’s something right? No one has starved on my watch (yet). Which is kind of a miracle considering I’ve been nursing a newborn nonstop for 2 months. Basically anything that gets done besides feeding the baby is a miracle. My mom made me feel better by sending me a few online forums where other Idiots of America talk about having done the same thing....

Stir Fry Vegetables I love the vegetables we use in this recipe, but it is important to pick veggies that your crew likes. You could swap the ones I have listed here for some of the ones below. I wouldn’t recommend adding in more vegetables without making more of the sauce recipe. My whole family loves this recipe so much. In it, we are using pork loin as the protein. I love making stir fries with pork loin because it is lean and yet still so tender; it is comparable to chicken breasts in protein and fat content....

This Quinoa Berry Bowl comes in at about 250 calories and 6 grams of protein! It’s a great option if you are trying to keep things lighter in the new year. HAPPY NEW YEAR FRIENDS!! So, I feel a little remorseful that I didn’t thank you all for what a great year 2017 was! I did this in my personal life too, I waited until 2018 was already here and then I was like, “Oops!...

These make the perfect Christmas cookies. This delicious recipe makes 50 cookies, which makes this the perfect recipe to make for gifts and cookie boxes. I love the rainbow sprinkles, but if you wanted to make them even more festive, swap them out for some white, red, and green ones. Anytime I have a recipe that calls for ricotta cheese, I get asked if cottage cheese is a substitute. While I am totally a do-what-works-best-for-you type of person, I urge you to stick with these as written....

A very Mediterranean dish, inspired by baba ghanoush but without tahini. This is vegetarian and vegan with delicious spices, tomatoes, onion and garlic. This dip takes eggplant (aubergine if you are in the rest of the world) to a whole new level. Roasting eggplant is one of the best ways to impart a ton of flavor into an otherwise bland vegetable. Best served with toasted pita chips which are pitas cut into triangles, brushed with oil and baked for 10-15 minutes at 350°F/180°C....

This is one of these beautiful breads that I really enjoy baking and eating! It is so good to have a piece of this beautiful bread with a warm cup of tea or coffee in the morning…. Or in the evening, or anytime of the day! Cinnamon is one of my all time favorite ingredients, it just makes everything taste 100x better 😀 Oh and by the way you really need to try these Nutella Cinnamon Rolls, try them, you won’t regret it!...

If you have never made corned beef at home, I have a recipe for you today that is so easy to make and fall apart tender.

Is there any soup more striking than a vibrant pea soup? I know there nothing better than peas right out of the pods, English or garden peas as I call them. They are sweet, tender and they just have best flavor. If you think you don’t like pea soup, then you haven’t tried it like this. Flavored with leeks and mint, this is not the watery, flavorless soup that your grandmother forced you to eat....

Ground Turkey or Ground Beef The type of meat you use in this recipe is again, a matter of personal preference. My family often enjoys ground turkey in recipes. If you decide to use ground beef, skip the olive oil in the recipe and make sure to drain the fat from the pan before moving on. In addition to being a hit with the kids, I love this recipe because it comes together simply with easy-to-find ingredients....

Last night I was driving home from a church meeting, when I saw this poor guy walking his dead car across 4 lanes of traffic on a busy street, trying to get to the side of the road. Normally I pass by people with car issues because I have my kids with me (and because I know ZERO about cars), but I was kid-free and had cables in the trunk, so I stopped and asked if he needed a jump....

It’s the perfect cake recipe for this fall season. This recipe celebrates apples of all kinds. And if you love apples? Especially warm gooey apples, make this delicious apple cake! When you serve it on a plate with a dusting of sugar on it, it will definitely make you feel a little whimsical ,a little fancy. You can make this apple cake without Rum too. If you don’t want to use rum in the cake you can always replace it with equal amount of apple juice/ Honey or 1 teaspoon of Rum flavor....

One of our favorite ways to feed people when they come over is paninis. We even bought a second panini maker so that we could make paninis faster when we have a crowed! My love of paninis is what came up with this amazing Brie Grilled Cheese. While it is made as a grilled cheese recipe, it would be perfect as a panini too. The bacon, turkey, and brie come together perfectly with an easy mayonnaise sauce to make the perfect sandwich....

This easy and delicious side dish features thinly sliced potatoes, zucchini, tomatoes, and carrots in a delicious sauce, baked until perfectly tender, then topped with melted mozzarella cheese. It’s one of my favorite dishes, and I know it will become one of yours too. There are so many different ways to cook potatoes, like mashed potatoes, crushed potatoes, air fryer roasted potatoes, and more! And while potatoes are amazing on their own, they are even better when paired with healthy fresh veggies, a savory tomato sauce, and cheese....

About this Vegetarian Tortellini Soup in Instant Pot My midweek meals are all about quick and easy recipes. Just like this best vegetarian sausage tortellini soup, Instant Pot Mexican Quinoa, or Palak Paneer, this dish requires minimal prep and is mostly hands-off. I love using my Instant Pot to whip up this quick weeknight tortellini soup with spinach in under 30 minutes. If you don’t own a pressure cooker, you can easily make it in a Dutch oven on the stovetop with a bit of supervision....

Don’t you love giving all of your imminent responsibilities the finger and taking a weekend getaway? Oh wait. Except that I’m a stay-at-home-mom and my primary responsibility is taking care of my kids…here’s where that analogy falls apart. What we should have done this weekend: Put 2nd and 3rd coats of white paint on the 70s wood paneling in our living room. Taped the rest of the room. Bought gray paint....
