Making simple, easy meals. Life is complicated enough, why should our food be too?
When I was still little but old enough to make my own plates at family gatherings, I would always pile my plate high. Everything looked so delicious.

I spent my time folding laundry, watching girly movies and you guessed it, cooking! The boys spent… Continue reading { Bean Free } White Chicken Chili and 5 other recipes!
I was hoping that I would come back from Santa Fe with loads of healthy-eating travel tips to share – but the truth is, I was way under prepared and as a result, didn’t stick to my healthy eating. I paid the price for it with a really sick belly and learned some lessons. Bring… Continue reading {GF} Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup
