One of my favorite veggies to include with dinner is asparagus. The way my kiddos gobble it up is quite comical, and I just love all the varieties you can do to change it up!! Last week, my hubby was grilling some chicken for dinner and since I had a bundle of asparagus, I quickly prepped this and ...

Stuffing Topped Chicken Pot Pie
One of my families most favorite dinners is chicken pot pie. My kids LOVE it and ask for it each week. Ask me though, and I can only handle so much chicken pot pie before I am burned out and not wanting to even look at it, haha. To make everyone happy, I decided to change up my go to recipe and ...
Lemon Ricotta Pasta
Last week, I went through my fridge and found a container of Ricotta. It had been on sale at my grocery store, and my original plan was to make lasagna. That day however, I wasn't in the mood for something so "heavy", and opted to make this pasta dish instead. The lemon is so flavorful in this dish ...
Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Stew
With winter here, there is nothing better than a bowl of stew, right?!?! Well, I live in Houston, so my winter is about 70 degrees and sunny, but I still love a good bowl of soup/stew, haha!! Since Mondays are my "slow cooker" days due to cleaning my house and not wanting to dirty up the kitchen, I ...
Homestyle Chicken Pot Pie
As we head into Fall/Winter, my family loves a good hearty dinner. Enter in....my home-style chicken pot pie!! Loaded with chicken, vegetables, a flaky topping, and served warm to the table, everyone goes crazy for it!! I use a shortcut by putting a puff pastry sheet on top in place of homemade ...
Fish Taco Bowls
This summer, I have really been focused on making new recipes, trying new foods (aka more seafood and vegetarian), and including more grilling options in our meal plan each week. Living in Houston, it has been averaging 100 degrees lately, so I am definitely grateful for grilling and not having to ...
Balsamic Chicken & Veggies
I don't know about you, but I love a one pan dinner! Not only is clean up a breeze, but it keeps things contained. My kitchen doesn't look like a tornado hit it after dinner, and typically, one pan dinners are quick and easy!! This one is incredibly simple, healthy, and based on the fact that all ...
Asian Shrimp Stir Fry
A few weeks ago, my mom and I were talking on the phone and she mentioned that my aunt had just bought a spiralizer and was in love with it. Since I am obsessed with kitchen gadgets, I was immediately curious to know all about it. My aunt had made zucchini noodles for her family instead of pasta for ...
Parmesan Roasted Carrots
The one veggie that all 3 of my kiddos will gladly eat is carrots. My daughter loves them crunchy with ranch, whereas my two boys love them steamed and tender. Last week, my grocery store had a sale on their baby carrots, so of course I bought two bags! That night for dinner, I added some ...
