Starting today, I am sharing some of my favorite recipes for St. Patrick’s Day! We are Irish, so this is a special holiday for us and we go all out. This is one of my favorite holidays! This recipe is super easy to make. You can easily use store bought cookie dough or a brownie […]
Mexican Lasagna Casserole
For Christmas, my Mother-in-Law bought me cute cookbook filled with wonderful ideas. As I was flipping through it, this recipe caught my eye for two reasons…1. we love Mexican food and 2. I had everything on hand already to make it.

Muffin Tin Lunch
I first heard about doing this about 6 years ago when I heard Dr. Sears speak about nutrition for kids.
His idea was mostly for snacking, but my kids love it so much that I started doing it for lunch. It’s like a healthy version of that overly processed kids lunch pack you find in the deli section at the supermarket…only I control what goes in it and it is a lot cheaper.

Mexi-Cali Meat Burritos
If you haven’t figured it out by now, my family loves almost all Mexican food. I found this recipe over at Food.com many years ago and we fell in love with it. I’ve adapted the recipe just a bit.
This makes a TON and freezes extremely well. We easily get 3-4 meals out of this one. I freeze it in zip-top baggies in amounts that my family generally would eat in one meal. I love that it has the beans built into the recipe.

Fruit Parfaits
My kids are always begging for dessert. And I don’t like giving it to them more than once a week or so. Sometimes, I am able to talk them into a piece of fruit for dessert…but not often.
I figured, if I could make the fruit look fun, then they might just buy it for dessert. It’s not 100% healthy, but it’s way better than most typical desserts. Read More…
Slow Cooker Candy
Yes, I said it…I made candy in my slow cooker. I was skeptical at first and I totally ruined my first batch somehow, but the 2nd time worked perfectly! It was really, really good!
I send half of it to hubbyman’s office where it was devoured before lunch and the second half was placed on the tables of a Valentine’s Day party…none of it made it’s way back to my house. I think that says it all. This will be my new go-to recipe for parties and cookie exchanges. Read More…

Homemade GORP
GORP = Good Ol’ Raisins and Peanuts. It’s usually made with raisins, peanuts, and m & m’s, but really you can do whatever you’d like. There is a catch though…it needs to be 2/3rds healthy and 1/3 fun! Read More…

Grown-Up Grilled Cheese Sammies
