Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
Welcome to cranberry week! Yep, I am dedicating this whole week to cranberries because I LOVE them so much. Seriously, from the first spoon of cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving, I am all about cranberries until the new year!
…
So, I woke up this weekend and realized we were less than two weeks away from Turkey day. Yes, in case you weren’t aware…Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away. Have you started thinking about your menu yet? Side dishes are where I put most of my effort because they are my favorite part. Usually green beans are our green vegetable of choice and, while they will still be making an appearance on this year’s table, I am completely obsessed with these maple bacon Brussels sprouts.

During this time of year, between the hustle and bustle of getting to a million events and ready for the upcoming holidays, I like to carve out time to spend with family. This may be something as simple as a family walk in the afternoon or huddling around the TV for a football game. Of course, if we are going to watch football, we need food and that means I cook up some of my favorite Tequila Limón wings

Mathlete always jokes that we could double our kitchen space if I would get rid of half of my spice collection. If a friend ever needs a random spice, there is a pretty good chance I have it. I am a firm believer that great spices make the difference in a meal. So, I like to keep lots of different ones on hand to use when cooking. One of my favorite things is to combine different herbs and spices to create my own mixes. This one that I am about to share is absolutely the BEST EVER rosemary garlic rub.

This post is coming to you way late but hey, I’m still on Chicago time 😉 We had an awesome weekend in Chicago for BlogHer Food. I got to meet some fabulous other bloggers and spend time with my good friend, Allyson too! I ate my way through the city which of course prompts to me to turn back to my Paleo Monday routine because I need it more than ever. I certainly can’t complain though about all the amazing donuts, pizza, tapas, pasta and sushi because it was delicious. I mean…look at it!
That was my pasta dish from Eataly. It is simply amazing what a few simple but high quality ingredients can make! I tried to sneak a Parmesan wheel home with me but it was too heavy 😉
Let’s talk about today’s recipe though. Paleo Asian beef is an awesome Asian inspired dish that comes together super fast and tastes delicious. Basically, everything you want when you are cooking during the week!

Raise your hand if you love pie! Ok, now keep your hand up if you actually like MAKING pie. Yeah, a whole lot of hands probably just dropped right about then. I know mine did. I am horrible at pie crust and therefore, I generally avoid making pies. Plus, slicing a pie is no piece of cake {ha!} either. Well, I am about to blow your mind with these mini apple toffee pies because they are so easy!
One of best spaghetti recipes my mom made when I was younger was baked spaghetti. It was a potluck favorite and we almost always took it to church events. I shared the recipe quite awhile ago and now I am re-sharing this three cheese baked spaghetti recipe because it is too good to be missed!

All around the country weekends are filled with football right now! From tailgating to homegating, there are tons of appetizers being served up! One of our favorites to include in our football routine is salt and vinegar chicken fingers.

I am honored to partner with Bertolli to celebrate their 150 Anniversary and bring you this recipe. While this post was sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own. #MyTuscanTable
I didn’t travel much as a kid. My family stuck close to home for vacations {definitely not a complaint…just a fact} and tended to focus more on staycations and spending time with local family members. On the opposite end of that spectrum is my husband who spent his summers traveling all over the country and some international travel too. Even in their retirement, his parents continue to travel the globe. They have inspired me to create a must visit list of travel locations. One of the top places on that list is Tuscany. Until I have the chance to go, I settle for bringing Tuscany to my home through delicious Italian inspired meals like one pot shrimp marinara.
