Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
Happy Friday! Are you enjoying spring so far? We had some absolutely gorgeous weather for most of the week and should get even more this weekend. I love it!
Since I have been spending so much time outside, I didn’t have a chance to put together features. Forgive me, please. I will definitely be looking at this week’s party to see what you’ve been working on so share your best stuff. Can I also ask that you click on 2-3 other links while you are here too? That way, everyone gets a little love!

We are all about chips and dip in this house. My son is a huge guacamole fan and eats it all the time. We also love creamy dips. Right now, though, our favorite is this grapefruit avocado salsa that uses the best of spring produce to give it tons of flavor.
…
Being able to make a quick salad at the beginning of the week and last for days is a huge time saver! This easy cucumber salad is perfect for your weekly meal planning or event because it is so easy to make and can be tossed together a few days in advance. The flavor just gets better with time! This easy cucumber salad is destined to be your new favorite salad!
Cheesecake bars are one of those desserts that are impossible to resist. This combination of delicious carrot cake and flavors of a classic cheesecake recipe create a dessert that is perfect for any holiday or when your sweet tooth has a craving.

Happy Friday! Have anything fun planned for the weekend? It is our last official gymnastics meet of the season so I’ll be immersed in the world of high buns and high beams. Of course, there will also be time to look through what you all link up today!
Speaking of looking through links, here were the ones that caught my eye last week.

I love to cook but, with our crazy schedule, I often need to fit dinner preparation into a super short period of time if my family has any hope of actually eating dinner! A stir fry is such an quick and easy way to make a meal that is full of flavor and includes vegetables too! This ginger soy chicken stir fry, which includes spring’s perfect vegetable, is a current favorite in our house and we make it several times a month!
Now that spring is officially here, we are all about delicious spring vegetables like artichokes and asparagus. While Mathlete isn’t as big of a fan, I can’t get enough asparagus! I just love it. To make him a little happier about eating it so often, I make him prosciutto wrapped asparagus.
…
During the week, our schedule is absolutely insane. So, I need recipes that are easy and fast to make sure my family still gets a home cooked meal versus delivery from some local restaurant. We are big chicken marsala fans but I rarely have the time to create one of our classic Italian favorites at home. Right now, one pan meals, like this one pan pork marsala, are my savior.

Happy Friday! Can you believe that March is half over? We are already into spring (although it definitely does not feel like it here) and headed quickly towards Easter! I feel like I might blink and it will be 2018. Anyone else?
Just as with the beginning of the year, you guys are totally rocking these parties. I love seeing what you share. Here were a few of my favorites from last week:
Chocolate Chip Scones // Macadamia Nut Easter Bark // Peanut Butter Pie // Cannon Blast Cocktail
Rainbow Stitched Desk Accessories // Dessert Pop Art Printable // DIY Easter Chick Craft // DIY Water Bottle Dog Toy

Growing up, Easter was one of the holidays where we always got together for lunch as a family after church. Usually, we went to my grandma’s house and she cooked a ridiculous amount of food. There was always a ham and then what seemed like an endless amount of side dishes and desserts. Now, as an adult, I typically host Easter at our house and love looking for Easter recipes to serve. I don’t cook nearly as much food as my grandma did but I have a few favorite Easter recipes that I always include.
