Rustic Bean Soup w/ Chicken and Spinach
Friday, November 12th, 2010
This is a perfect belly filler, leftover user, freezer friendly, affordable meal. And it was delicious! I wanted to lick my bowl, and rob emptied his too. Noah loved that I gave him a bunch of my garbanzo beans, and devoured them. It was his first time trying them, and he loved it. [...]

Thai Panang Curry Base
Sunday, September 5th, 2010
This is probably one of the more ingredient heavy things I prepare, but it is oh so easy (it comes together in a blender) and it makes enough base for 4 curry meals for 6 people each. I have found the harder to find items at Whole Foods. You can keep the base in the [...]

This is a simple, quick recipe perfect to make ahead or to freeze. It’s incredibly innexpensive and VERY filling, and delicious enough to eat all the time.

Crock Pot Chili
Monday, August 16th, 2010
This chili can be made with or without meat, and tastes delishious either way. If you want a vegan chili just leave out the ground beef.
It freezes great, is perfect for casual company, and makes my husband grin when I make it for dinner (or reheat some from my freezer)! Hearty enough to eat on [...] -
Meal Swaps: cook once and eat for a week!
Sunday, August 15th, 2010
by: Cheryl Kindred Sarasota Doula (and very busy mama)
I LOVE Meal Swaps. As a busy mama I often have neither time nor energy to cook a delicious, healthful dinner every night. Some nights, all I can do is pop something in the oven, or reheat a meal on the stove. For those nights I adore [...] -

Easy Chicken Pot Pie
Sunday, August 1st, 2010
This has quickly become a favorite in my home. It is super simple to make a LOT at a time, and if a baby (or child!) inturupts you while preparing them it is no big deal to walk away for a little while. Each step can stand on its own.
1 chicken makes 3 loaf pans of [...] -
A serving of veggies between every bun: Sloppy-Joes
Sunday, July 18th, 2010
I love eating healthy and cooking healthy foods with way more veggies in them then you’d guess. This recipe is one that gets lots of rave reviews from everyone, and when you tell them it’s chock-full of beets, carrots, sweet potato and zucchini no one will believe you! This is also freeze-able, which makes me [...]
