My little girl has become a little finicky with her eating habits lately. It must be a trend common among 3-4 year olds. Truth be told, she's always been more of a snacker than one to sit down and eat full on meals. Thankfully, that's actually a good and healthy habit to get into! You just have to be sure that the things you are snacking on are good for you.
Lately, I've fallen into a bit of a slump with her snacking. So... I thought I'd try something new, fun, and exciting!...
Read MoreWhile my mom has been on the 'Get Forking Skinny Meal Plan', she decided that one of her favorite breakfasts/lunches ever is the Skinny PB&J Parfait. It's one of my favorites too.
So, with that in mind... I wanted to come up with another similar treat for her! Something that she wouldn't come up with on her own and that, once again, was just outside of her comfort zone.
What's better than peanut butter and chocolate?
Well, not much. If anything...
Read MoreI'm working on Game Day recipes this week in preparation for Super Bowl! I'm not a big football fan, but I do love the food and the commercials - so bring it on!
If you can't tell by now, I'm a bit of a homebody. I've found that it's either far too hot to go outside and do anything worth enjoying or it's just too cold. There's probably three months of the year here in Texas that I find tolerable to venture outdoors for longer than a few hours in.
That being said... I love, love, love to homegate! What's homegating? That's where you 'tailgate' from the comforts of your own home. And... if you don't know what tailgating is - well then you probably wouldn't be looking up game day food to begin with, hah!...
Read MoreI'm not generally one for shakes or smoothies. I think there's something mentally about a thick milk drink that I almost find unsettling. Or maybe it's that I'd rather eat my calories rather than drink them. But... I know there's a lot of people out there that absolutely swear by them (including my grandma!)
I've been wanting to make a protein shake recipe for a long time now! Pretty much ever since my grandma's visit last year. Plain old vanilla or chocolate protein shake? Psshh... we can do much better than that!
Let's get festive. Let's get creative. Let's get fun...
Read MoreOh, what sweet perfect madness this this?!
Two of my most favorite things combined into one wonderful collaboration of epic proportions! Red velvet and cinnamon rolls. Need I say more?
While these little devils may take some time and attention, they are absolutely worth the effort!...
Read MoreBraaaaaains...
I know, I know... Halloween is over. So why am I posting a recipe now for brain cupcakes?
Well, partially because I missed out on a lot of the pre-halloween hoopla due to a horrible virus that ran through my house in the weeks leading up to it. And... well also because one of my favorite shows is The Walking Dead.
