Easy Pretzel Chicken Tenders

September 10, 2015 by Shannon

Easy Pretzel Chicken Tenders for a great Weeknight Dinner

I love easy dinners for the busy school week. After school extra curricular activities and homework sometimes limits the time I have to prepare a good homemade meal for my family. I’m a huge fan of casseroles and slow cooker meals this time of year to make sure that my family gets a great tasting, well…

Crispy Crunchy Oven Baked Fried Chicken Dinner

Having a plan for dinner sure does make even weekdays go much smoother. I try to come up with a weekly menu on Sundays, but sometimes that doesn’t happen. This Sunday we spent the afternoon and part of the early evening at the Country Fair (check out the pics on Instagram) trying to get in a…

One Pot Italian Sausage, Pepper & Onion Pasta

One Pot Italian Sausage Pepper & Onion Pasta Dinner

This week is definitely going to be a hot & humid one here. I love simple meals that don’t require a lot of work or cooking time on days like these too. Preparing meals in the slow cooker or on the grill sure do make dinner time a lot easier in the summer. One of…

Blueberry, Almond & Goat Cheese Spinach Salad

Blueberry, Almond & Goat Cheese Spinach Salad

Summer is a great time to load up your plate with freshly picked fruits and vegetables. Summer is also a great time (especially with this heat & humidity we’ve been having) to cool off with delicious homemade fruit filled desserts and creamy ice cream. To help keep things balanced, I try to eat a salad…

Mexican Egg Salad Sandwiches for Lunch

We are into our second week of summer vacation and I’ve spent a ton of time in the kitchen! I guess I forgot how extra busy our kitchen is having four hungry children home all day! The truth is that my house has been quite the zoo lately and I haven’t had that many quiet…

Make Ahead Freezer Meals For Two

April 22, 2015 by Shannon

Make Ahead Freezer Meals for Two Freezer Cooking

Usually when I make dinner there aren’t any leftovers.  No food left over to pack for lunches or warm up for dinner the next day.  Our large family with 4 growing children has no problem eating everything I make most of the time and that’s great!  Sometimes it’s nice to have some leftovers though.  A…

Easy Weeknight Meal: Baked Italian Chicken Tenders w/ Crinkle Cut Fries

April 9, 2015 by Shannon

Spring is finally here and I bet after the long and cold winter, you’ve been busy outdoors!  There’s so much to do this time of year.  I find that getting my garden ready and preparing my flower beds sometimes keeps me outside until dusk, even on a weeknight.  My children don’t seem to mind though….

30 Minute Sausage & Tomato Soup Dinner

I couldn’t be more excited about the warmer temperatures we’ve been experiencing here in Western New York.  This week the temperatures have been between 40 and 50 degrees, and while that may not sound warm to most of you, it sure does feel nice after -20 degree days last month.  It’s especially nice when the…

Easy Slow Cooker Mexican Chicken Soup for Dinner

There’s nothing I like more on a cold Winter’s day than a nice warm bowl of soup! Sometimes I just don’t have a lot of time to prepare a homemade soup or I just don’t feel like it because I’d rather be snuggled up warm under a blanket instead of running to the store for…
