My daughter always wants to help me in the kitchen. Many times I am in a rush and don’t take the time for a little helper. As parents we can get so wrapped up in our busy schedule and the responsibilities of life and parenthood, that we may forget the importance of time with our kids. So we headed into the kitchen to make these chocolate covered strawberry crispy rice treats.
Today we have a quick, easy, and family-friendly salmon recipe baked to perfection for you. With the new year comes new resolutions and many of us are trying to eat and feed our families more nutritiously. This recipe is a great one to get kids eating fish. The creamy Parmesan mixture makes it oh-so-tasty and really, who doesn’t love cheese?!
Today, I’m delivering a daily installment of Cinnamon Puff Rolls. a.k.a. Cinnamon Cigars or Cinnamon Puff Pastry Rolls. Cinnamon Cigars doesn’t sound very appetizing does it? Who’d want to eat a cigar? Eww! These Cinnamon Puff Rolls are ridiculously quick and easy to make. Just a case of whisking a small amount of dry ingredients together and sprinkling over the dough, rolling the dough up, and baking – hey presto!
With Christmas nearly upon us, this time of year is exciting, magical, and busy for everyone. As much as we love holiday baking and decadent desserts, when it comes to recipes, what we’re really usually looking for something wholesome and simple to keep our families fed. This honey chicken and veggie stir fry is a great one to keep tummies filled with something nutritious and saves you from spending a ton of time on dinner prep.
There is nothing I love more than baking treats during the holidays. Not only do I love baking treats, I love giving these homemade treats to our neighbors and friends. I know it’s not always easy to find the time to make homemade, so I try to find simple, but delicious recipes that I know everyone will love. That’s why these Christmas Tree OREO Cookie ball pops are such a great treat to make for gifting.
These Melting Snowmen OREO Cookie Balls are the perfect treat to make this winter! They are adorable, simple enough to make with “helpers,” and they taste amazing! They are rich and delicious, but you also have built-in portion control. Does it get any better? (No. No, it doesn’t.)
Day 4 of 12 ~ Theme: THE GRINCH ~ 12 Days of Christmas Family Fun

Usually what we’re after when we scour the internet for recipes is something quick, easy, and tasty that will fill tummies at our dinner tables. Let me tell you, this family friendly minestrone recipe fits the bill perfectly. I can’t really tell you that it’s health food. Let’s just make an exception this one time because, well…bacon. It’s not a lot, but it brings to much flavor to this dish.
Initial field reports when I placed this rockstar dish on the table were all positive since they could see the killer looking chips and cheese covering the top. After the first scoop out of the pan, I lost a couple kids when they saw the tomatoes 🙂 However, after everyone actually tasted their dinner, all was good again. Every single one of them asked for a second helping, which is the ultimate stamp of approval for this momma!
Every Thanksgiving I get asked to bring a side dish to Thanksgiving dinner; this is something I am very thankful for! I’m going to let my mom and mother-in-law handle the heavy duty Thanksgiving dinner items for as long as possible. Preparing and cooking a turkey for 20+ people is not a skill I’ve developed yet, but side dishes? Those I can handle.
