This summer my kids and I will be world travelers! With the help of the internet, the local library, and the smattering of cultural restaurants in our area, we are going to learn about a new country each week. I am so excited to expose my kids to the colors, sights, sounds and tastes of other nations.
These breakfast burritos are a favorite at both of our houses for both quick dinners and for camping. For me to sleep in the wilderness, the food has got to be pretty darn good and these breakfast burritos don’t disappoint. They can be made 100% ahead of time and wrapped in foil until you’re ready to heat them up over the campfire or camp stove. Having everything prepped and ready ahead of time makes camping so much more enjoyable for us!
As the weather warms up, we are ever on the lookout for meals that can be on the table quickly and don’t require the oven. This Creamy Coconut Chicken Curry definitely fits the bill! It’s one of those meals that is so fast and simple to make, but feels fancy enough to serve to company.
These fish tacos offer a dinner that can be easily adapted and deconstructed for picky eaters to enjoy, while those with a more sophisticated palate 😉 can enjoy something that isn’t pancakes or macaroni and cheese. For example, the kids ate chips and salsa, fish sticks, tomatoes, and plain tortillas while we enjoyed these tacos.
If you’ve visited our blog before, you may have noticed that we both have an undying love for cheesecake. We don’t discriminate. We love all cheesecakes–baked, frozen, jell-o, even and especially lemon blueberry. Just when we thought there wasn’t room in our hearts to love another cheesecake, these delectable little things came along. And man, they are good!
My girls recently have come to love hashbrowns because they are similar enough to french fries. It was those words that I said that convinced them to try them, “they taste like french fries”. And they haven’t turned back! My 3 year old said last week when we had these, “Mom, I just can’t stop eating these”! It was too cute!
A lighter version of a comfort food classic, this beef stroganoff is delicious on egg noodles or rice!
It’s hard not to love pasta–it’s cheap, quick to prepare, and usually loved gobbled up by our kiddos while keeping complaints to a minimum. We can’t help but share another amazing pasta dish with you. Our sister-in-law, Whitney, recently shared this lemon cream pasta recipe with us and it’s definitely a keeper!
My kids are all about helping me in the kitchen these days. If one wants to help, 3 stools suddenly appear in my kitchen with 3 eager helpers gathering around. Since St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, I thought it’d be fun to have them help me create a fun treat to get excited about the upcoming holiday. This leprechaun bark recipe is really easy.
These Mickey treats are perfect for upcoming Spring holidays like St. Patrick’s Day or Easter. And they’re fun for the kids to help make with you in the kitchen. See how Adelle copied one of her favorite Disneyland recipes on the blog today!
We like to encourage our kids to be adventurous eaters and to try new things, but new things are not always well received, so breakfast is usually a safe and familiar favorite for nights when complaints about dinner are too much to handle. These deluxe waffles are a favorite “brinner” option in our families!
Salty and sweet, this miso glazed salmon is a simple but fancy-tasting meal the whole family can enjoy. Get the recipe on the blog today!
