I love when I come across a recipe like Italian Stuffed Shells with Ground Beef, that is not only yummy but it LOOKS like you spent hours preparing it, when it really took just minutes. I’ve always assumed stuffed shells were too time consuming to allow into my life…but, I was wrong. Oh, so wrong….
Before I got married, I didn’t have much in the way of kitchen supplies. I think I had a couple bowls and a spoon to my name. And then, of course, I got a bunch of Tupperware and cookie sheets and rice cookers for my bridal showers and wedding. Yet, even after all that, I still feel like there are some products out there that I still need and that would love to have. That’s why I consulted the trusty ‘Or so she says…’ Facebook fans! Here are some great kitchen products that come highly recommended from the best ladies in the world!
So, last week on the ‘Or so she says…’ Facebook page, I mentioned that I had only been to Trader Joe’s grocery store one time. The time I went, I felt so overwhelmed by all the unique products, that I just wished someone would tell me everything that I must try. It’s a good 45 minutes from my house, so it’s not like I can go very often, so I want to get the good stuff while I have the chance!
Lucky for me, the Facebook page was swarming with ladies who are Trader Joe’s junkies. They shared hundreds of their most favorite products with me! Soon enough, they started asking for an official list of all the products that were shared, so they could remember to buy the things they hadn’t tried yet, but were suggested. I promised I would get that together.
Happy New year everyone It’s Jana from Double the Deliciousness. I love the fresh start that a new year brings. It’s a great time to reflect and see what improvements you can make in your life. One of my fresh starts/goals that I try to achieve every year is to eat healthier and exercise regularly. I always start off doing really well because I think my body is in a state of sugar/junk overdose and my body really likes the idea of vegetables & good for you food!
And that is just what this sandwich is! Chuck full of veggies and good for you, this healthy Greek chicken pita sandwich is sure to wow. Just what my body is craving at this point. And to make it even better, this one is so quick and easy and tastes as good as any full fat recipe out there!
I was so excited to get some of your comments on my last Craftsy review saying how much you’re enjoying these classes! I am loving them as well, and I’m so excited to finally be learning some things that I’ve wanted to know for a very long time. Today I get to introduce you to…
Hi everyone, it’s Gina visiting again from Kleinworth & Co.! Are you excited to be kicking off the Holiday Season? I know that I have a whole lot of baking to do in the next couple months & I’m sure you do too. Which is probably why October 10th is Cake Decoration Day. So to help celebrate that, I thought I would share with you all a cake decorating tutorial today.
You see, my mom was an expert cake decorator & did it professionally for most of her adult life. I grew up watching her & picking up a few things here & there along the way. I so wish I had paid more attention to the finer details because now that I have all her tools I feel like I have so much to learn. There is a lot to know about cake decorating!! One thing I remember her doing ALL THE TIME was creating these Parchment Decorating Bags. When you are piping icing – these simple little disposable bags are the easiest way to draw or write on whatever you are decorating. Because they are small it makes them so much easier to handle. Let me show you just how to make your own.
Who knew there was so much to know about knives and how to use them?!? I seriously have learned more in the last 40 minutes or so from this free, online Complete Knife Skills class from Craftsy then I ever expected! My in-laws gave us a great set of knives early on in our marriage, but I had no…
After being on the road for most of the summer, it’s been really nice to finally get settled back into making regular home cooked meals. Rather than order pizza (again), the kids and I recently decided to make our own at home. Some of you may be home-cooked pizza experts, but this was a first…
Hello! It’s Allison from Tips for Family Trips. I’m straying from travel this month to share an idea that has made dinner easier for my busy family.
My family’s dinner will be delivered to our house tonight, and not by Pizza Hut. I participate in a dinner exchange with two other families where each of us cooks the same meal for all three families on one night each week. Wednesday is my night to cook. Friday is my family’s pizza night, and we often spend weekends traveling or with extended family. These days, I only cook on two nights each week.
Here are my tips for starting your own dinner exchange:
Hey there! It’s time for another FabuLESS post. 🙂 Today I want to share with you one of my favorite things from my kitchen: My Recipe Binder! Back when I was a newlywed, I didn’t really have a lot of recipes. I had a few family favorites written down in a little book my grandma…
My name is Kadie and I blog at Seven Alive All Livin’ in a Double Wide. I am a stay-at-home mom to 5 great kiddos. They keep me pretty busy. With what little spare time I have I enjoy all types of crafts, sewing, cooking and crocheting. My favorite things to work on now are…
Thanks to this blog, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Well, a lot more time than I would normally spend in there. And, I’m not complaining. It’s a good thing! I’ve discovered so many new recipes and have been learning so much. Plus, my family can’t complain. They’ll take a home-cooked meal,…
