Italian-Style Turkey Burgers

Slow Cooker Pork Carnitas {Paleo, Gluten Free}

It’s been a crazy week friends. Between the immense need for a serious house cleaning, plus the start of soccer twice a week for the older two, and the start of ballet for my daughter, I had to take a few days off from blogging. I seriously can’t get over how quickly this week has…

Garlic Baked Shrimp

Happy hump day everyone! Somewhere along the lines of having baby #4, I started streamlining our meals and cooking on repeat. This is so not like me…I used to live for my weekly meal planning, browsing new recipes, making a huge mess in the kitchen even on a week night (well I still do that, but…

Pasta with Creamy Tomato Sauce  {Vegan, Gluten Free}

Power Chicken Hummus Bowl {Panera Copycat Recipe}

I know what you’re thinking…two spinach salads in a row? Well I do always keep a Costco-sized tub of the green goodness in the fridge, but the truth of the matter is I made this one a while ago and I am just now getting around to sharing it. I don’t typically eat out during the week, for…

Fact- it’s hard to make scrambled eggs look pretty in pictures. I’m obviously craving all things Mexican these days. Ever since our Mexican food extravaganza on Christmas eve I can’t get enough.
