So I've been seeing this Baked Feta & Cherry Tomato Pasta recipe EVERYWHERE on IG (probably like you all have too!). (And yes, I know this viral sensation started on TikTok but my computer software developer husband wouldn't let me join! LOL!) I had zero interest in making it because I don't like feta cheese.

I love my Baked Sweet Potato Latkes, and make them every year. My 4 year old was looking forward to them all month, and reminded me to make them for Hanukkah several times.

I researched a TON or recipes and with my spidey sense created the BEST cranberry sauce ever!!! Honestly, I actually like it! My babysitter loved it too (although she's never had … [Read more...]

This easy, healthy and yummy meal is a great trick to start your treat filled Halloween night! (of course this meal is excellent any day of the week too and is especially great for game nights as well!) I love loading the kiddos up on HEALTHY and satisfying real foods before they ever have a treat (whether it be Halloween candy or birthday cake!). Also, eating healthier real food first will … [Read more...]
