As we come to the end of another school year we are making plans for all the trips and Feises we want to make this summer. So, that mean also looking at the budget. We LOVE food but not at the expense of our adventures. So, I am trying to still keep our game going…

Mediterranean Chicken with Rice
We are back to our To-Go dinners. Dance classes have picked up again to four a week so we are traveling much more than usual. Rather than stop at fast food restaurants for dinner I make our regular meals and put them into divided covered dishes for the kids to eat their dinner in the…
Settling In with Roasted Citrus Chicken
The second day back is always better than the first day. Everyone tends to be more tired on the second day back to school and work than the first but at least we are starting to feel the routine is moving forward again. My daughter had dance class last night and things seemed “normal.” The…
Chicken Enchilada Verde
As I look around my house I realize how busy life has been over the last month. Nothing is seriously wrong but there are baskets of laundry to be folded, clean dishes to put away, and tables to be dusted. It seems that just like everyone else we are running from morning until late in…
Creamy Chicken and Stuffing with State Testing
My daughter had her EXPLORE test this morning. Because she is in Virtual School we had to drive to a town about 40 minutes away for her to take the test. This is her first year in Virtual School so it has been a huge learning curve for us. She was homeschooled in New York…
Chicken Piccata
There are days that I forget to start dinner until it is just about time for my family to start complaining that they are hungry. We all do it. I have a month of meals planned to choose from so I usually have something I can make quickly. Not the other night. It was the…
Skillet Chicken and Broccoli with Cheese
The weather still is yucky here and it seems like it is not going to return to “normal” any time soon. The high temperatures don’t even break half of what the average normal temperatures are supposed to be this time of year. Each day I hear the meteorologist say, “There is no end in sight…
Tuscan Chicken Skillet Dinner
So after vacation my cupboards are still pretty bare. I have some meat left in the freezer but as it has been about 10 degrees most of the day I have not wanted to go out grocery shopping. We picked up a few things on the way home but I need to get creative for…
Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Spaghetti
I love my slow cooker. I say it every chance I get. It makes cooking dinner so easy at least 3 days a week. I know some people don’t like the texture of the shredded meat that often occurs with the slow cooker. One way to combat that problem is to sear the meat prior…
Chicken Alfredo Casserole
Every once in a while my family loves a good, home-cooking casserole. The right combinations in a casserole can almost feel like a warm hug from when you were a child. They can evoke memories from your past. I always find it amazing to stop and think about the way food effects us emotionally and…
Cheesy Quinoa, Chicken, and Broccoli Casserole
Wow, another snow day today! That makes three this week. I need to keep everyone focused and moving forward because changes of schedule in our house can be difficult. They start to sleep in later, which causes them to stay up later, so they sleep in later…. Until their days and nights are flipped. So,…
Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Verde Soup
This posting is late tonight as my kids are on their second snow day this week and most likely heading into their third tomorrow. Yesterday school was closed because of the snow. Today school is closed because of the cold. I woke up this morning to an igloo on Weatherbug for the forecast – not…
