The recipe I’m sharing with you today is one I’ve been making for many years, and it’s a family favourite. Whenever I announce that we’re having sloppy joe stuffed buns for dinner, there’s a lot of cheering, fist-pumping, and exclaims of “YES!” from the whole family. So why have I waited this long to post it, you ask? Let me tell you,…
Amara Organic Baby Food Review & Giveaway
I remember when my first-born was ready for baby food, I made most of it myself so that I knew exactly what was in it. I used organic fruits and vegetables. I cooked them, pureed them, and froze them in ice cube trays. I had stacks of different varieties of baby food in our freezer, ready…
Snack Ideas with New Reese Spreads #DoYouSpoon
Have you seen the new peanut butter chocolate Reese spreads? Or better yet, have you tried them? They recently arrived in major grocery and retail stores across Canada. I notice them every time I’m grocery shopping lately, practically calling my name. I’m a sucker for Reese Peanut Butter Cups, and this new spread is based on them, so…
Balsamic Maple Pork Tenderloin #MOLOmonday
It’s been a glorious summer, and although I’m a little sad to see it coming to an end, I really love the fall with all its colorful foliage, cozy sweaters, and warm mugs of pumpkin spice lattes.

Egg in a Jar
Here’s the fourth post in my daily grab-and-go breakfast series this week: Egg in a Jar! My kids go crazy for eggs. They would gladly eat eggs for breakfast every morning, but it’s time-consuming to cook up an egg, standing over the stovetop to make sure it doesn’t burn, while I’m trying to get everyone ready for school. Then I…
Blueberry Almond Flour Mug Muffin
If you haven’t noticed already, throughout this week, I’m sharing grab-and-go breakfast ideas to get you through those busy school mornings. Yesterday’s recipe for Yogurt Parfait Popsicles was perfect for coaxing reluctant kids to eat a quick breakfast, but sometimes I find I get the kids fed and forget to feed myself! This mug muffin is one of my…
Yogurt Parfait Breakfast Popsicles
I’m back today with another grab-and-go breakfast idea for those crazy first mornings back to school. It’s tough getting back into the routine of school mornings, so I’m hoping I can at least make breakfast a little easier for you. As I mentioned in my post yesterday (Peanut Butter, Jelly and Banana Overnight Oats) it’s hard to get my boys to…
Peanut Butter, Jelly and Banana Overnight Oats
Going back to school after a long and lazy summer is hard. I’m not looking forward to dragging my kids out of bed when they’ve been so used to sleeping in and getting up slowly for the last couple months. What makes it even harder is that they don’t usually want to eat breakfast first thing…
