Have you noticed ALL the smoothie bowls around the net? They are hard to miss- so beautiful and colorful….they’re definitely eye-catching! Why don’t I have one on my blog? I started eating smoothie bowls when I lived in Hawaii about 5 years ago! There was this little place called Lanikai Juice, about a mile and a…
Egg, Greens and Goat Cheese Breakfast Sandwich
When we took our anniversary trip to Walla Walla a couple weeks ago we decided to grab a quick breakfast on our way out of town. Usually if I am on a road trip I am not into big sit down meals…eating a lot and sitting in the car for half the day doesn’t work with me….
Artichoke, Mushroom and Onion Sauté
It’s recipe redux time and the theme is Spring Cleaning! “Go through your pantry, cupboards, freezer, or fridge; what ‘treasures’ have you found? Pick an ingredient/spice/condiment that’s been hanging out for a while and give it the attention it needs. Share a healthy recipe made using your new-found pantry prize.” Now is the perfect time…
Black Bean and Corn Salad {Vegan, Gluten Free}
I’m not very good about working ahead of schedule. I never have been. In college and grad school, I always did my best the day before an assignment was due. Not much has changed! But I have learned that having 4 kids alone can throw you some curves balls, so it’s probably a good idea…
Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Casserole
Friday thoughts….sometimes I feel like just giving up. Giving up the blog, giving up trying to work from home, giving up being a stay-at-home mom. Ooooh, I just read that back and realize it sounds serious and depressing, but don’t call for help because I don’t mean it like that. I just go through that…
Egg In A Spinach Nest with Sriracha
I finally had a date with my 2015 planner, long overdue…and as I was filling it in I realized we are already a quarter into the new year! With that discovery, I briefly flipped out, then did a quick overview of what my first 3 months of the year looked like. I thought it would…

Rosemary Dutch Oven Bread
When I first started getting into blogging I read a ton of craft and sewing blogs. In fact, the only food blog I read was the Pioneer Woman. I guess I was in denial that there would be competition when it came to food blogging. I guess I thought I was one of the first…
Garlic Baked Shrimp
Happy hump day everyone! Somewhere along the lines of having baby #4, I started streamlining our meals and cooking on repeat. This is so not like me…I used to live for my weekly meal planning, browsing new recipes, making a huge mess in the kitchen even on a week night (well I still do that, but…
Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls {Gluten Free}
This year was a first for me, I asked the hubby not to get me my annual box of Valentine’s chocolates! I know. Crazy. I just told him I’d rather have a Stitch Fix gift card than flowers or candy so he was happy to oblige. However, the wonderful women from Recipe Redux made me make…
