Chinese food is the one thing I know I like with vegetables. I love the sauces and will even eat what I consider “questionable” vegetables if they have enough delicious sauce on them. I have to be careful though because I don’t want to burn my family out on one type of food I am…
Tuscan Roasted Vegetables over Spaghetti
I realized the other night I was avoiding unfamiliar vegetables over my fear of them being mushy and bland. I need texture and I need flavor. Lots and lots of savory flavors. We are still working on balancing the fact that some want to have meat and making sure everyone is getting what they need….
Black Bean and Corn Quinoa Burgers
I write my menu plan about a month at a time. This is becoming a bit difficult for me with the change in food choices. I am truly trying to stretch myself in cooking and eating but I have already purchased a bunch of chicken and sausage so I am going to try to figure…

Raglan Road – Disney Springs
We arrived two nights prior to the start of the Disney Social Media Moms Conference 2015 and wanted to spend a few days getting to different places that we might not otherwise get a chance to go to. The one place my daughter really wanted to go to was Raglan Road. She wanted to see…
Carrot Cake Waffles with Cream Cheese Drizzle
I have been making vegetarian dishes that speak to me. Meaning, they have no mushrooms or what I consider “weird” things that I don’t really want to eat. I am going to slowly start branching out next week. I don’t know if I will ever overcome my disdain of olives (green, black and Kalamata) and…
Vegetable Pizza with Creamy Garlic Sauce
I am approaching my son becoming a vegetarian the same way I approach everything. Lots and lots of research. I am learning what are the best ways to make sure he eats a balanced diet, getting all the nutrients he needs and doesn’t live on pasta and cheese. I am reading Pinterest recipes like a…
One Skillet Mexican Quinoa Dinner
I am truly trying to support my son in his desire to become a vegetarian. Yet, I am trying to balance the rest of the family wanting to eat meat with his desire not to. He is being very good about understanding that other members in the family are making different choices. He has offered…
Spaghetti with Garlic, Parmesan, Broccoli and Wilted Spinach
My 12 year-old son suddenly decided last week to become a vegetarian. I thought it would be like all his other ideas and last about 24 hours and then be forgotten. I was wrong. He wrote up a contract with himself that for now he will eat eggs, dairy, and seafood while getting used to…
Grilled Basil Farmer Cheese Stuffed Brats Wrapped in Bacon
We travel to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for at least 3-4 long weekends during the summer. My daughter Feises (Irish Dance Competitions) during those weekends. One thing we do every trip is stop at Kopp’s for Frozen Custard, it is super yummy, and shop at Brennan’s which is right next door (oh, so handy) for cheese. On…
