Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

While waiting for our friends, Drew & Shannon, to come over for Pizza Night, I decided to make some cookies with the kids. We sampled these at a recent playdate at Mary Elizabeth’s house and she said she had found it Southern Living. There are only 5 ingredients – you gotta love that! Fast, easy, [...]

Monday Dinner: Beef Daube Provencal

Ok, so in an effort to spend less time in the kitchen (both preparing and cleaning up), I went to Cooking Light for some slow cooker favorites and I found a winner! I’m not a big beef eater and I actually used my dutch oven instead of the crock pot, but this was great. I [...]

Dinner Time: Chinese & Healthy Cookies

While the picture (actually of our leftovers!) doesn’t do it justice, I made Crispy Honey Chicken, Lo Mein and Fried Rice. We LOVE PF Chang’s and the kids love the honey chicken, so I thought I’d save money by doing it at home.

However, last year I discovered [...]

Thursday’s Meal – Mexican Lasagna

I’m still trying to only visit the grocery store once a week, thereby forcing me to meal plan and save money. Most of you can testify I’m not the best at coming up with recipes on the fly, but tonight when I searched my kitchen, I came up with the idea of using some frozen [...]

Our Wednesday Meal Plan

Today was Ricky’s day off, so I wanted to have an original dinner for him and the family since he’s been working the past few nights and eating sandwiches and leftovers.
Our morning was simply cereal on the way out the door and for lunch we packed a “picnic” since the kids and I were going [...]
