I have a sweet tooth…a big one. Some days, I think all my teeth are sweet because my cravings are that strong. One of my absolute favorite things is salted caramel sauce. I love it on ice cream, in desserts…with just about anything sweet.

Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
Warning…I am a chicken…with no head.
Why? Because I am heading to my first ever conference and I have a million things running around in my head.
Don’t worry though. I am still here with ideas for your weekly menu BUT the commentary will be very brief…like non-existent 🙂
Sunday: Lemongrass Salmon with Barley Salad

With spring {finally} here, I’ve been planning to make these frozen yogurt bites and store them in the freezer for a fun snack for the kids. Ever since we discovered them last year, they are a favorite in our house.
***********************************************
I’ve been kind of busy around here so I haven’t spent quite as much time on Pinterest as I usually do. One thing caught my eye recently though…you might have seen it:
My little ones L-O-V-E yogurt so I thought this would be a fantastic summer treat for them that was also fairly healthy. So, I thought it would be a perfect candidate for a Pinterest projects feature.

Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a great week. Mine is flying by in the blink of an eye!
A quick announcment: There most like won’t be any party features next week. I may {a big MAY} be able to get them done before I leave for SNAP! but I seriously doubt it. So, don’t be surprised if you show up here on Thursday morning and find there are no party features to look over.
Of course, if I DO post them, I’ll let you know on Twitter and Facebook so be sure you are following me there. 🙂
Now, let’s take a look at the party features from last week’s awesome Pinworthy Projects Party.

Whew, my friends, we have made it to Wednesday! That means we are so close to the glorious time that is the weekend! For a lot of people the weekend also means grocery shopping so Wednesday seems like a great day to make our weekly menu plan!
Let’s take a look at some ideas that made it into this week’s What to Cook Wedneday!
Sunday: Few foods evoke childhood memories for me the way fried chicken does! A pan fried chicken sandwich with avocado hash seems like a very grown-up way to enjoy my childhood favorite.

You guys remember my gig as a contributor over at Sugar Bee Crafts, right? I am loving it. Mandy is super supportive and a great person to learn from!
Last month, I shared a recipe for homemade ricotta cheese that I am bringing over here today to share with you in case you missed it.
The origin of this recipe dates back to a random Friday night when I was super pregnant with my youngest. I was spending some downtime hanging out with my two closest friends {they’re married!} while the Mathlete was indulging his racing pastime. We were watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives and they shared a brief rundown of how to make homemade ricotta.
Now, a lot of you might question why to even bother making something homemade that is so readily available at the store. I certainly did…until I made it!
…
Thanks so everyone who linked up to the party last week! I was so excited to see so many awesome ideas shared! Of course, being Thursday, it is time to check our party features!

Creating a weekly menu plan can be a real challenge sometimes! It is hard to make sure it includes recipes you know your family will enjoy but also keep from always making the same old things. That is what What to Cook Wednesday is here for! It is your go to source for ideas to help build your weekly menu plan!
Let’s take a look at what is on the list this week…
Sunday: Cooking seafood on the weekend is always great because I make a quick run to the store and get it super fresh. This week, tomatillo shrimp makes an appearance.
Monday: We’re shaking things up and doing pasta on Monday! How does pasta with a pale ale {yep, beer!} cream sauce sound for a meatless Monday?
…
Happy Thursday! Let me tell you…this week has been something else! I have a big ole to do list and very little time or motivation to get any of it done!
For now, let’s avoid my to do list a little longer and take a look at some party features instead!
…
What to Cook Wednesday (WTCW) is super fun for me! It helps me come up with new weekly menu plan ideas while also sharing with you some awesome recipes from around the web!
Do you ever make any of the recipes I share? Maybe you have some recipes of your own you’d like to share here…If you do, shoot me an email because I would LOVE to have you guest post for a WTCW segment to see what menu plan ideas you have.
Now, let’s get on with our recipes!
Sunday: Corned beef did not make an appearance in our house for St. Patrick’s Day. So, I’m going to make up for it and have baked honey mustard corned beef this week instead.
Monday: Stir fry is such an awesome option for a quick weeknight meal. I’ve got Asian stir fry with noodles on my list for the week because I know our Monday is going to be a busy one.
