Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
My little girl {well, she is 8 so not SO little any more} loves turkey. If you ask her what she wants to eat for a meal, it will always include the word turkey. So, I look for different ways to make her happy and still have an actual meal. Hot turkey, spinach and Swiss roll ups are one of our families favorite dinners!

I am thrilled to work with Minute® Rice to bring you this quick and easy recipe that is perfect for a weeknight meal. While this post is sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
Can I tell you about the super delicious dinner I fixed the other night? It is rare that everyone at the table sits down to something they LOVE and will eat everything on their plate. Just like I imagine a lot of families to be, we have a lot of specific food tastes. The winning meal the other night: crispy chicken and asparagus goat cheese rice.

We are on the go pretty much all the time during the week. Between our normal work schedule and all of the children’s activities, we also have doctor appointments and a bunch of other appointments to get to. I always keep our pantry stocked with easy grab and go snacks that are delicious but easy to eat. A delicious chocolate coconut snack mix has become one of our new favorites.

I think sweet potatoes are generally one of those love or hate items. Before I did Whole30 the first time, I never used to eat them. Of course, they are way better for you than regular potatoes so they went into meal rotation a lot once I started doing Whole30 or trying to stick to a paleo diet. Mathlete, the sweet potato lover, was thrilled! For our our Big Game party, we will be serving Thai sweet potato nachos in place of the regular potato version.

I have an addiction. I can’t complain too much because it a pretty healthy one but I just can’t get enough of it. Confession: I am in love with roasted broccoli. You will be in love too once you try this easy roasted broccoli recipe.

We have been snowed in for a few days and finally got out today! We did a quick trip to the grocery store and, of course, grabbed a latte for me. Three days with no latte was just too many. Every since I made the chocolate waffle and fruit bites, I had been craving chocolate waffles for myself!

Every family needs a few insanely good one pot recipes that can be thrown together on busy weeknights or when no one feels like putting much effort into cooking. One pot spinach artichoke pasta is just that recipe! With all the flavors of your favorite spinach artichoke dip mixed with al dente pasta and made in one pot, you can’t go wrong serving this recipe over and over.

My kids are not breakfast eaters. Or any meal really. They are snackers and getting them to really sit down for an actual meal can be difficult. I try to get them interested with foods that seem like snacks but are actually going to fill them up. One morning I made mini chocolate waffle and fruit bites and they were a hit. They’ve become a favorite breakfast item and we make them at snack time too.

When we were dating, Mathlete proudly announced he was going to make me chicken Parmesan for dinner one night. It is his go to Italian dish and he eats it pretty much anytime we go to an Italian restaurant. I decided to create a little twist on his old favorite to make it weeknight and even freezer friendly! Mini chicken parmesan pockets are perfect to make a batch of and then freeze. You can pull them out whenever you want them for an easy weeknight meal.

I finished my first week of Whole30 and so I am feeling a little crummy. I always find that days 7-9 are my worst. By day 11, I am feeling good and know I can make it through the month. Let’s celebrate the completion of my first week though with a hearty stew that is filled amazing flavors and easy to make too. Paleo chicken chorizo stew is the perfect winter’s meal and it is good for you too!
