I'm back at it with home canning! I absolutely love having home-canned tomatoes on hand. I pick up a 25 lb. box at our local farmstand, spend an evening canning them because it's just too darn hot to do that during nap time, and enjoy them all winter long. They're delicious made into marinara sauce or salsa, crushed over pizza, or added to just about any dish for a hint of summer when the only tomatoes you can get are a suspicious shade of pink at the grocery store. Last summer I was pregnant ... continue reading...
Sweet Potato Garlic Fries with Lime Aioli
I'm not a big fan of watching sporting events on TV, unless it's the Olympics, in which case I am glued to the TV. My favorite sports are track and field, the marathon, swimming, women's gymnastics, and rowing, but I watch just about anything! Other than the Olympics, however, I don't particularly enjoy watching sports on TV. Live sporting events are another story. I love the atmosphere of being at a live event, the crowds, and of course the food. I recently went to a Cubs game in ... continue reading...
Carrot Zucchini Muffins
Is it too much to ask that breakfast be both easy and healthy? I don't think it is. I am all about taking the time to do a little bit of prep work to make sure our mornings can start smoothly. With a baby and toddler who both expect to be fed the second they get out of bed in the morning, I'm thankful I can give one of these naturally sweetened muffins that are also packed with veggies to Lleyton while I'm nursing Easton. If you follow me on Instagram (which you totally should!), you saw ... continue reading...
Green Chili Macaroni and Cheese
If there were ever two ingredients that belong together, they are green chilis and cheese. It goes without saying that macaroni and cheese is comfort food at it's finest, and adding a little bit of heat and flavor from the green chilis really takes it to the next level. And when I say a little bit of heat, I mean just that. I kept the spice level down to make this recipe toddler-friendly, but if you like your food hotter, feel free to add another jalapeño in there! This is what you ... continue reading...
Peach Ricotta Crostini
I love entertaining. I love cooking a big delicious meal and hosting friends and family in our home. But I do think it's possible to enjoy a great meal that doesn't require the host to be in the kitchen for the entire time the guests are there. I'm a huge fan of entrees that require minimal attention in the oven, like my perfect roast chicken, and appetizers that come together in just a few minutes, like this one. With fresh summer peaches, it doesn't take many ingredients to compliment ... continue reading...
