Simple Sesame Noodles


With school starting, I have been looking for quick and simple meals to do during the week. My mom had mentioned this recipe to me and so I had to give it a try. Man was I glad I did! This dish was super easy, delicious and nutritious! The recipe does not call for any veggies, but I add veggies to anything I can. I cut up 2-3 cups of veggies and sauteed them in garlic and olive oil. I added them to the pasta and poured the sauce over the whole thing. One thing I suggest is to make a batch and a half of the sauce to accommodate the veggies you added. Enjoy, we sure did!!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Scrumptious Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookies are one of my favorite things to make with the kids! It's tradition to make them for a few different Holidays including Valentine's Day. While decorating is the usually the main purpose in making these, over the years I have tweaked the cookie recipe and frosting to make them absolutely scrumptious as well! So much yummier that buying a store-bought mix and canned frosting.  I would even be so bold as to say I think they are every bit as good, if not better, than Swig and Crumble! Give them a try and see if you agree.   My Scrumptious Sugar Cookie Frosting is an ultra creamy, cream cheese frosting with a few extra additions that put it over the top! Sour Cream adds to the creaminess and takes the sweetness down a notch.  The frosting is still plenty sweet but not sickeningly so.  Butter Vanilla Emulsion is my other secret weapon that really elevates the flavor of this frosting! It can be found on Amazon, or in a craft store like Michaels,  but...

Great Harvest Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

Kirsti sent me this recipe about a year ago and we've made it several times since.  It's easy and delicious!  I love making Pumpkin Bread in the fall when the scent of pumpkin and sweet spices fill up my kitchen.   Sometimes I surprise Brynlee with this for an after school snack and it never fails to brighten her mood after a long day.  In fact, I think this delicious pumpkin bread would brighten anyone's day!
