Crockpot mac & cheese


Tonight we made one of my easy go to crock pot meals- homemade mac & cheese. We are still trying to perfect it because it turns out super cheesy and so next time around we will probably experiment a little ;) But this is another great crock pot meal for you busy folks! Enjoy!

Cauliflower based dough


Tonight we made cauliflower based dough for cheese bread and pizza! It is kind of time consuming but I think it is a great (not to mention super healthy) alternative to normal dough! Enjoy!

Time out for women!

This weekend was much needed! After our car breaking down in the middle of the Walmart parking lot (ideal place, I know lol). I got to go down to Salt Lake and attend Time Out For Women with Breanna! Such fun having a girls night out! Such awesome speakers and amazing music! Then got to spend the night at the most comfy place ever! The pillows were so squishy! Then we got to wake up and spend the day being uplifted again! Thanks so much to Dave for sending us there, it was amazing!

Banana pancake


Made super easy pancakes, seriously so easy! 1 banana mixed with 2 eggs and add some cinnamon if you want. Or if you are like me and like some chocolate chips, add those too! Enjoy!

Pinterest inspired snacks

Today I spent some time making some snacks ideas I have gotten from Pinterest. They were super easy to make (no joke) and super tasty!

Here is the link for the cheese crackers!

I tried both after making them and I was surprised with how much I actually enjoyed the cucumber sandwich. I liked the added crunch it brought! These snacks are healthy and simple! Enjoy!

Chicken salad

This was too easy. Chicken patty in the oven for 12 minutes. While it cooked i prepped my salad and then when it was done, cut it up into strips and add your favorite dressing (I used ranch)!

Enjoy!

Chicken & Broccoli

I worked this weekend so dinners become tough when I'm gone all day! But thank goodness for a crock pot and a sweet husband! Nate put the chicken in and let it sit for about 4 hours. Then when I got home I cooked the broccoli, added the cheese, and cream of mushroom soup. Pop it in the oven for 30 minutes at 350 and bam dinner made! It was super easy, not the quickest dinner especially when you are hungry lol but it was easy so that made up for it! Link below! Enjoy!

Easy Italian Chicken Bake

Tonight we had Easy Italian chicken bake! The hardest part of this meal was smelling how tasty it was as it baked. It was torture! And oh it was so worth the wait! I was a bit hesitant having pesto on it but I am glad I did it because it was delicious!  Try it out for yourselves, seriously super easy! 4 ingredients!
Enjoy!

Apple crumble & caramel cheesecake

Now I have to admit that the cheesecake was bought for this dessert but could easily be made from this recipe on here! I did make the topping which I was shocked was surprisingly super easy! I took it to my Relief Society (church function) and it was a hit!
So the recipe is for cheesecake bars, the actual photo on here didn't have a link on it so I just used the bars recipe and it worked fine! I didn't coat the caramel on like in the picture for the bars, I drizzled it on! Enjoy!

Grilled turkey and cheese lettuce wraps

Tonight we had grilled turkey and cheese with pineapple lettuce wraps. Super easy and healthy too! We used the griddle to grill turkey and pineapple (separately). Then added cheese on top of the turkey. Once grilled to liking we took it off and set it in lettuce and wrapped and enjoyed!
Here is the link if you want to use bread instead of lettuce! Enjoy!

Jaxson's Birthday Party

Saturday afternoon after the race we had a party for Jaxson. He got lots of cool Legos, super hero outfits, and a cool race track. Papa pop (aka my dad) helped the kids out it together, or should I say they helped him lol. It was hilarious watching him! Fun afternoon! Happy Birthday Jaxson!
