Congratulations to the winner of the goodie food box Jessica F. you have been emailed! I finally busted out the pumpkin this week. I already feel like the month is off to a quick start so don’t want to waste any time! Pumpkin desserts are one of my favorites this time of year- pumpkin cheesecake,…

Kale and butternut squash…what’s not to love?

Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes
(please excuse the iphone photos for today’s post) Did you all have a nice weekend? We sure did because daddy came home after being gone for 3 weeks! 3 very long, summer weeks, but despite our rocky start (sick kids, ER visit for my youngest) the time apart did get a little easier this time…
Homemade Ranch Dressing
Hi friends! I just wanted to post a quick update on my pregnancy since I have been a bad blogger since the morning sickness hit. I am 11 weeks and feeling better each day, nausea is a lot better but not completely gone. I got to see the little nugget for the first time this…
Pesto Chicken Salad
Chicken salad is so personal- everyone makes their own favorite version. I have never loved a heavy-mayo based chicken salad until I had one at a wedding shower a long, long ago- it was made with fresh tarragon, celery and some other basic ingredients.

I used plain Greek…
Apple Oat Muffins and What I Ate This Month
Apple oat muffins. Sooooo good. I have been wanting to make this recipe forever. I kept seeing the little recipe card on the loose in one of my kitchen drawers and I just knew the kids would love these muffins. Also on my list of things to do has been making egg-free baked goods for…
Peanut Butter Yogurt Dip
I had never been to a Pampered Chef party before living in Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. I lived in the most awesome neighborhood and made several stay-at-home mom friends. To be quite honest, there wasn’t much to do there so we had all sorts of fun get togethers. I got introduced to Pampered Chef through…
Blog Update and Roasted Vegetable Enchiladas
I am so excited for this week because I am having a little remodeling done to Nutritious Eats. It won’t be anything drastic; just a little updated and more user friendly, both for you and me. Due to the edits the site will be down Tuesday and Wednesday so don’t worry if you come by…
