Broccoli & Brussel Sprouts Casserole. It’s that time of year. Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years are all right around the corner. It’s a time of family and friends, food and fun. With the cooler weather and the holidays, I love comfort foods. Casseroles are at the top of my list when it comes to cooking […]
As part of the Country Crock Casserole Club, I received a kit to facilitate this post. All opinions are my own. Easy Recipes for Back to School Back to school time seems to be particularly hectic for everyone. I feel like the whole back to school time period has basically been a blur. Our […]

I received a Country Crock casserole kit to facilitate this post. All opinions remain my own Keeping Dinner Simple Lately, I’ve been dreading dinnertime. Between not wanting to cook because of the heat and being pregnant, mixed with two boys that have seemed to be pretty picky, making dinner just doesn’t seem appealing. I’m […]

Cascade Platinum Results The only way you can truly know if a product works is to use it over time. Sometimes it […]

Velveeta Cheese, aka Liquid Gold I love the variety that summer adds to dinner time. My favorite part would have to be being able […]
Healthy Avocado Yogurt Dip Recipe I eat a lot during the day. I’m definitely a grazer and eat a lot of small meals. I usually eat a small snack or two in between meals, but I find myself growing tired of the same snacks over and over. My go to snacks are usually almonds and […]
Baking Lighter with C&H Sugar Over the holidays, it seems like I eat a ridiculous amount of sugar. It’s the one time of year where I really let go, but then I gain some weight and I regret all of the calories. Instead of eating extra calories that you regret, why not bake with a […]
Red Velvet Christmas Cake Truffles I remember the first time I made cake pops. They took SUCH a long time and ended up being a bit of a fail. They were too gooey, I couldn’t get the candy melt to set right, etc. I loved the concept behind it and thought it might be […]
Peppermint Meltaway Christmas Cookies December is that time of year that my good eating goes completely out the window. I generally end up gaining a few lbs, and try to offset it with lots of running on the treadmill. It’s always fun to try new treats and recipes, and this Peppermint Meltaways one is definitely […]
Surprise Pumpkin Treats Halloween has to be one of my favorite holidays. I love the treats, the crispness in the air, dressing up, going trick or treating with my boys, and seeing how excited they are when they put their costumes on. This Fall, why not take one of your favorite treats and spice it […]
Progresso Recipe Starters I really love to cook for my family. Now that we are in the swing of school and have a schedule down, I’ve been doing a lot of meal planning. We love to eat out, but have decided to cut down a lot to save money. I also like knowing what’s going […]
Before you go running or even wonder what Kale is, I’ll tell you that I’d never had it before a few weeks ago. After we got off vacation, my mom and I wanted to do a cleanse. We looked into a fresh fruit and veggie one. Sadly enough, I got my weight off with the […]
Beef, It’s What’s For Dinner I’m a meat and potatoes type of girl. I grew up in Idaho where it seemed like so many of our meals revolved around meat, specifically beef, and potatoes. To this day I still love meat. I absolutely love a good burger or steak. However, over the years I’ve become […]
Real Dried Fruit From Dole I’m always on the lookout for great snacks that the whole family will love, but that are convenient and we can eat on the run. Because it is summer, this is especially important. I always have snacks and water for the boys whether we are at the park, pool or […]
I’ve been cooking more and more with quinoa since it is such a great whole grain with protein. I decided to use it in a Quiche recipe. It turned out absolutely fabulous. To be quite honest, my picky boys didn’t love it, but they ate it anyways as it was what we had for dinner. […]
Slim Fast Healthy Meals One of the beautiful things about the Slim Fast system is that it is convenient. It doesn’t take much planning to grab a bar, a shake, or have some fresh fruit and nuts on hand. Part of the Slim Fast plan is incorporating a 500 calorie meal at dinner. Not all […]
Over the last five months, I’ve introduced some VELVEETA® and RO*TEL® recipes to you. I’ve come up with some of my own as well as posted a few classics. This recipe I’m about to share is definitely a classic. It was not the first time I’d made it before, and I’ve had it at parties […]
Green Power Smoothie I’ve seen a bunch of recipes lately that call for coconut milk, smoothies included. I’ve never actually tried coconut milk, so I picked some Silk Coconut Milk up when I was at the store today. I really loved the taste, it’s low in calories, and it actually has more calcium than a […]
Planning for Grocery Shopping Planning for grocery shopping is a must in my home. If not, I come home with random foods that looked good, foods that aren’t good for me, and I usually end up spending more as well. In order to plan for grocery shopping, I first look to see what I have […]
Quinoa Patties Recipe I’ve started to hear more and more about Quinoa. My mom told me about a yummy soup she made and I’ve seen recipes floating around, and have heard just how good it is for you. Quinoa is gluten and wheat free, and is a balanced and complete protein. It is […]
Creative Crescents Last month, I had a fun time getting creative with Pillsbury Crescent Rolls. I created a 130 Calorie Strawberry Cheesecake Crescents recipe. Using reduced fat crescent rolls and a high protein filling, it’s a dessert you can feel good about eating. Another recipe that I use crescent rolls in often is a chicken […]
Pasta for me is a comfort food, but with added sauces and creams, the caloric value can quickly add up. I’ve got another recipe here from Robin Takes 5: 500 Recipes, 5 Ingredients or Less, 500 Calories or Less, that will satisfy your pasta cravings at only 419 calories per serving. It’s a pretty sensible […]
Ok, all of you health nuts that love seafood, this is a combination that I would have NEVER thought to put together, but it’s definitely on my top 5 for salad recipes now. This recipe comes from Robin Takes 5, my new favorite cookbook. It’s not a recipe that my kids would touch since they […]
