Spanish Rice #MOLOmonday

I have to say, I really look forward to writing these MOLO posts each month. I love getting creative with leftovers, and I get so excited when I stumble upon something exceptionally good that I can’t wait to share. When I made this Spanish Rice, inspired by Lil’ Luna’s recipe, I knew it would be…

Gluten-Free Spaghetti Quiche

I don’t have a problem with gluten – in fact, I love the chewy texture that it gives to dough – but if you happen to have an intolerance to gluten, it can often be challenging to find gluten-free products that have a nice texture and taste. My mom has a sensitivity to gluten, so she knows this…

I completed the LISTERINE® Challenge! {Giveaway}

  Last month, I told you about the LISTERINE® Challenge that I was taking part in, so now it’s time to tell you how it went.  It was very easy to sign up, and you receive a coupon just for registering. The idea of the challenge is that you rinse with LISTERINE® twice a day, and…

Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas

We’re starting to see a lot more sunny days now that April has rolled around, which means we all want to spend more time outside and less time in the kitchen.  I find myself gravitating towards recipes that I can make quickly without even turning on the oven. These Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas from Cook with…

KURA Review & Giveaway #StartYourSmoothie

The weather is starting to get warmer and I find myself in the mood for smoothies more often now.  Smoothies are a frequent after-school snack for the boys on warm sunny days, as you might recall from my post on after school snack ideas.  I let the kids customize their drinks by tossing in whatever fruit they…

Spaghetti with Turkey Sausage & Kale {Catelli Giveaway}

If I could only keep one thing in my pantry, it would definitely be pasta.  You can stock up on it without worrying about it going bad, it’s quick and versatile to cook with, and we all love eating it.  Yay for pasta! I was really excited to be invited to attend a “virtual” cooking class by Chef Lynn…

This is when I get to show you creative ways to use up your leftovers by sharing recipes and a printable, editable shopping list. This time we’re going Greek! First off – Greek meatloaf in muffin…

Vegan Snacks: Review & Giveaway

  As you can probably tell from my recipes on this blog, we’re not a strictly vegan household. We enjoy eating all types of food – vegan or otherwise.  We also have relatives and friends who are vegan, so it’s not uncommon for me to buy vegan products. The nice folks over at Lloyd James provided…

Easy Chicken & Broccoli Divan

Well, we’ve made it through the first week of spring break! Just one more week to go! I did my best to keep the kids occupied, but I had to work (I have a home office), so they had to entertain themselves a lot of the time. And that’s not a bad thing – it gave…
