PEACE ~ LOVE ~ COOKING
Some nights, taking the easy way is the best way. These store-bought ravioli simply drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and topped with our easy homemade parmesan comes together in just a few minutes. Top with avocado or serve with a salad. Easy way dinner, yes!
These pickled beets are a hit! Easy to prepare and easier to love…on salads or all on their own. We keep them handy and suspect you will too once you try them. Enjoy!
While I admit, I have the gift of a short memory for many things, I’m pretty certain my Dad made some version of this salad when I was a kid. As smart as my Dad is, he likely made this the easy way by combing the beans and onions and tossing in his favorite (store-bought) […]
Kids love poop, it’s hilarious! When the kids and I perfected these treats, they needed a name. Much tastier than poop, of course, I just could not resist keeping the name. We combine creamy peanut butter, crunchy millet, and almond flour and then smother in dark chocolate! There is a good chance you already know […]

Yes, healthy…fresh strawberries are full of vitamin C and also contain impressive amounts of manganese, potassium, and folate. Chocolate has a powerful variety of […]
My Mom loves to shop. Growing up, she loved to take my sister and me clothes shopping and her motto was and still is…”if it looks good on you, it’s in style”. Wise, Momma! She also taught us how to stretch our dollars, shop the sales, and appreciate and find great items at thrift shops. […]
Good morning, French Toast! This 5 ingredient recipe is so easy, and delicious, the kids can make it. Top with berries and drizzle with maple syrup if you’d like. This past Mother’s Day, I had mixed up the simple ingredients the night previous and stored in an air-tight glass jar. Mother’s Day morning, the kids […]
When our neighborhood pool opens for the summer, we are all smiles since most of our summer days are spent swimming! One afternoon during the last week of school, our daughter advocated for an afternoon at the pool. When mommy was reluctant because it was already late afternoon, and we had no plan for dinner […]
