Roasted Butternut Chicken Recipe – One Dish Dinner

December 1, 2016 by Kendra 5 Comments

I should’ve taken a photo. This plant randomly popped up in our garden last spring and we let it grow… into a butternut squash that took over a good 1/3 of the garden and produced dozens of squash. So let’s just say my roasted butternut chicken recipe is a result of a bumper crop of squash! Even after giving tons of squash away, I still have a lot left in the garage and was trying to figure out how to […]

September 22, 2016 by Kendra 12 Comments

When sharing my shopping list for Aldi, I mentioned making oyster soup and a reader asked if I had a recipe. I do! Here is my Creamy Oyster Soup recipe you and your family’s enjoyment. My recipe really only serves two. I make it for the toddler and I at lunch. There’s just enough left over for a small bowlful to enjoy later. Chop your veggies small so they cook through faster, and you may omit the potato if you like, […]

Delight the entire family with this real food version of sweet and sour pork and pineapple recipe!

I love both “real” Asian food and the Americanized versions. This recipe for Sweet and Sour Pork and Pineapple is easy to make at home, tastes delicious like buffet foods, and best of all it’s made with real ingredients, less sugar and is much better for you! This is one of those recipes that are very easy to make, but take a little extra time. It took about 30 minutes to fry the pork but oh was it worth it!!! I […]

Making homemade pie filling to can with apples right from the tree!

Apples! Apples! Apples! Ever read the cute children’s book titled 10 Apples up on Top? Kinda how I’ve felt lately. Trying to keep all my apples balanced. But at least I’ve gotten the applesauce and the apple pie filling canned! Yay! Today I’m sharing how to make Homemade Apple Pie Filling to Can. There’s nothing quite like a fresh apple pie and using pie filling from the store is just never the same. However, using your own home-canned pie filling is […]

A homemade mocha gummy bears recipe using herbal and regular coffee!

With my first pregnancy I craved gummy bears. But after I ate them I felt sooo sick. Most likely I was craving the gelatin, since I would also pig out on jello. This time around gummies are already sounding good again. But I didn’t want to eat them and feel sick, so I started looking for gummy bear recipes. Before I tried any of them, something landed in my inbox and I knew it was perfect. A Mocha Gummy Bears recipe in […]

How to make your own veggie stock for almost free!

Ever buy veggies and realized you were tossing half of your money’s worth while prepping them? A CSA box is a very good example. The stems and outer leaves keep your veggies the freshest, but are they really good for nothing but compost after eating the actual veggies? Don’t toss those scraps, make veggie stock! A quart of veggie stock will cost you around $2, or you can make your own for almost free. Which would you prefer? To make […]

Best snack cookies ever! Peanut butter oatmeal raisin cookies.

Are you looking for a cookie that is just as much an energy boosting snack, as a treat? If so, these peanut butter oatmeal raisin cookies will be perfect! Recently I had a craving for oatmeal raisin cookies, but felt like I should be making more of a protein snack than just a sweet cookie. I looked online for a recipe first. While the cookies were delish, they were far too sweet. Back to the drawing board. It took a […]

Maple Glazed Salmon with Ginger Cream Sauce

Sponsored posts are what keeps the lights on around here. 🙂 I love finding creative ways to share and showcase my favorite brands. But for every brand that accepts my pitch, there are dozens that pass me by. Sometimes I get so excited about my ideas that I carry them out anyway, rejected pitch not-withstanding. My Maple Glazed Salmon with Creamy Ginger Sauce is one such example. The more I considered the recipe concept that was in my head, the […]

Making delicious pon haus with dippy eggs for dinner.

German recipes: pon haus and scrapple are considered the same thing by many. After doing a quick pon haus and scrapple recipe search on Google, I disagree. In fact, my pon haus recipe isn’t much like the recipes I found online either. My method of making pon haus is pretty simple compared to some. Scrapple and pon haus do have one thing in common. They use broth from bones and other parts of a pig, that would otherwise be considered […]

I’m a cook/bake from scratch kind of gal. Mixes are quick and convenient, but most of them taste like they came from a box too.

Jason and I both love granola bars, but most of the store bought ones have.. well, you know what I’m going to say. 🙂  9 times out of 10 the healthiest foods are made at home. So I decided to try making my own granola bars. After searching for a healthy granola bar recipe I realized that I had LOTS of choices! So I picked out a bunch that sounded yummy and put them all together into a healthy granola […]

7 ideas that make healthy lunches for work. Plus snack ideas!

I started back to work last week and in line with my goal to keep eating healthy all the time, I thought I would share my ideas for healthy lunches for work. Many times I can just grab leftovers and heat them up at work. Since I’m a nanny I often take advantage of the kitchen and use a skillet to heat my foods instead of the microwave. We don’t have a microwave at home and I don’t feel that […]

Healthy sandwich bread recipe. Made with honey and whole wheat!

Have you ever read the ingredient list on a loaf of bread? It’s ridiculous. Even the “healthy” breads have a list of ingredients a mile long! Well, not quite, but you get my point.  I looked and looked for a healthy sandwich bread in the stores, and by healthy I mean less than 10 ingredients at the very least! 🙂 I did find something that I was comfortable with; in the freezer section with a price tag I was NOT […]

I don’t know about you, but I like to feed my family organic or at the very least, non-gmo foods. However I don’t like buying organic foods. Why? Have you seen the prices?!?!?! lol Saving money on organic foods sounds like a good idea and I wanted to find some ways to do so.  Below I’ve listed some ideas I’ve found and stores who have started selling their own brand of organics that are often cheaper than the big names.

Best ever cinnamon raisin bagel recipe! Whole wheat, homemade and delicious!!!

I don’t know about you, but I love bagels. Cinnamon raisin to be exact and that’s why I am sharing my cinnamon raisin bagel recipe with you today! Bagels can seem like a lot of work, first mixing the dough, then letting it raise, beating it down, forming the bagels, boiling the bagels and finally baking them. Okay, so they aren’t as easy as making bread. But honestly? From start to finish (and I grind my own flour), not counting […]
