A few years ago, my aunt sent me a little stand up photo album with family favorite recipes. When I was menu planning this week, I decided to check out those recipes. I ended up choosing to make her chicken Parmesan. It’s a one skillet recipe and done in less than 30 minutes. Score! I…

Can you believe it’s already March? Okay, technically, tomorrow is March, but it’s close enough. Last week, I spoke about how I didn’t know how my meal planning would go since I had been sick and had to go to the doctor. Well, Monday’s dinner burnt, so I made something else. Tuesday’s dinner went as…

Sometimes we want pancakes, but I don’t feel like flipping the pancakes. I like this alternative so does my family. You can add different toppings to the batter.

During January, I was sick for half of the month. When I was sick, I was not hungry for any food. Toward the end of my sickness, I craved BBQ chicken wings. I sent Hubby out to get me some frozen chicken wings so I could cook them up in the pressure cooker. They were…

This sheet pan was so yummy! The leftovers were even better the next day. These past few weeks have been off and on with great meals. I’ve been so busy writing Individualized Educational Plans (IEPs), teaching, and being sick that I’ve cooked meals that haven’t been stellar. Last Wednesday, I left work on time and…

As a busy family, I often struggle with figuring out what to feed the family. So I came up with a list of possible meals that are easy to put together. On days the Wee One or the Imaginative One asks me what’s for supper, I can show them this list. Then they can choose…
