This, my friends, is the sandwich that saved me about $30.00. It was one of those nights when I just didn’t have much time to cook. It was oh-so-tempting to just give in and go out. But you know I’m really trying not to do that. (Psst… it’s the reason for this site, actually.) Knowing…
Shrimp Tacos with Grilled Pineapple Salsa
Here they are, as promised, Shrimp Tacos with the delicious Grilled Pineapple Salsa I shared last week. Today is the first day of my 25th year of marriage to the man I’m convinced God made especially for me. He loves God, me, our kids, family and friends, and chocolate. and shrimp. So I’m sharing this…
Four Cheese Tortellini Salad
Summer is in full swing here, and we’re ready for some “cool” food! I did a lot of grilling last month for a photography job I was working on. It was fun, we ate very well, and I even found some great new recipes. Check out these delicious stuffed tomatoes! But, I’ve come to the…

Are there foods you loved as a kid and now your more-mature self knows better? (I’m looking’ at you Spaghetti Os.)

It’s Monday evening and I had wanted to get this week’s 15 minute meal plan out to you at least by this morning if not yesterday! I just know you’ve been sitting on the edge of your seat waiting for my next meal plan… and my big news. (Okay, really I know you haven’t,…
March Menu: 15 Minute Meals Week 1
If you’re a busy mom, you know that sometimes life comes at you fast, you get busy, and you have to adjust your plans and do things differently for a while. That time has come for me, and it’s messing with my meal planning system. I’ve got something in the works that is keeping me…
Oven Roasted Lemon-Greek Chicken
This. This is what took the stress out of my Sunday morning this week. I woke up knowing that this gorgeous Oven Roasted Lemon Greek Chicken was all prepared in the fridge and ready to pop into the oven. No worries about finding something to feed everyone when we returned from church. Ah… such a…
Creamy Chicken & Peppers With Rice
Everyone needs some Chicken and Rice once in a while. It’s not only easy and quick, but it’s also comfort-in-a-dish AND, it’s kid-friendly. But I got a little bored with the standard chicken and rice a few months ago. So I added some green pepper and onion. I was surprised how much it changed the…
15 Minute Chicken Fajitas
Mmmm. Chicken Fajitas! Nobody will know how easy it was to make or how healthy they are! They’ll just know that this is way better than takeout. (And you’ll know it was way cheaper!) This is yet another one of those meals that I can make super-quick because I’ve already got the chicken sliced and…
