Molasses Cookie Balls
Posted in: 1 WWP, 2 WWPP, Cookie Ideas, Dessert Ideas | 45 Comments
I made these on a complete whim this morning. A few days ago I caught this Molasses Cookie recipe post on Black Book Kitchen Diaries and the seed was planted. Molasses cookies! I couldn’t get them out of my head. I thought about them for days.
Of course I "Roni-fied" the recipe. I wanted to see how far I could stretch the idea of a cookie without butter or sugar (inside the cookie at least) and I’m happy to say these came out delicious! Click here to continue reading Molasses Cookie Balls >>>

Simple Tuna Burgers
Posted in: 3 WWP, 4 WWPP, By Points, Food Photos, Grill Ideas, Lunch Ideas, Sandwich Ideas | 12 Comments
I made these burgers for a quick lunch today. The husband said they smelled good, yet he opted for a plain old ham and cheese. Go figure. I’ve come to terms with the fact that I shall never understand his dietary choices. ;)
Being honest, I had no idea how these Tuna Burgers would turn out. I wanted to go a little nutty adding in mango or even pineapple, but then decided to go simple just to see if the base recipe would work out. Click here to continue reading Simple Tuna Burgers >>>

Little Guy and I created a new tradition tonight! A simple pumpkin cake using a store bought cake mix, canned pumpkin and a standard ice cream cone. We got the idea after seeing this. I’ll put the directions below the video.
For those who’ve watched our prior video… Little Guy brings back the tree in his belly! It totally cracked me up!

Pasta with Pumpkin, Sausage and Spinach
Posted in: 7 WWP, 9 WWPP, Dinner Ideas, Food Photos, Pasta Ideas, Toddler Approved | 38 Comments
Believe me, I never thought I would put those three things together either. Pumpkin? Sausage? Spinach? But Oh.My.Word! So yummy!
I saw Rachel Ray make something similar a while back and I think she used fresh sage and nutmeg. So those are the flavors I stuck with. Of course starting with a base of onion and garlic.

Fast Food Style Egg Sandwich

You are going to think this idea is absolutely ridiculous or genius. I tend to think it’s genius but I may be biased. ;) Simply, I make an egg mold out of an empty nut can. Here, I’ll show you. I went a little picture happy.
Ingredients I used…

Acorn Squash Stuffed with Apple Cider Quinoa
Posted in: 6 WWP, 8 WWPP, Dinner Ideas, Food Photos, Lunch Ideas, Vegetarian Ideas | 7 Comments
This idea hit me on my home from the gym today. I was pondering what I would make for lunch and then I remembered I had these two tiny acorn squash from the farm that I had no idea what I was going to do with. Just look how stinkin’ cute these are or should I say were… ;)

Leek, Carrot, & Cabbage Fried Rice

I wasn’t planning on posting this idea as I thought it was too close to my other quick fried rice ideas. Both of which I recorded videos for…
I made last night rice similar to the kale one but instead of kale I used 3 leaves from a head of cabbage. Click here to continue reading Leek, Carrot, & Cabbage Fried Rice >>>

Thought this question would be answered easier with a bit of show and tell. :)
The pictures on your blog always turn out so great… what kind of camera do you have?

Simple Base Cabbage Soup
Posted in: 0 WWP, Dinner Ideas, Lunch Ideas, Snack Ideas, Soup/Stew Ideas, Vegetarian Ideas | 17 Comments
Weight Watchers has a 0 point soup and this is sort of my starting point version. I like a tomato base especially with cabbage and I think you can use any kind of vegetable you like. There’s no wrong way to make this soup. Honestly, there is nothing to it yet I can’t stop eating it! It’s SO good!
I was inspired to make it for two reasons.

Warm Chard Salad with Turnips, Almonds and Dried Cherries
Posted in: 7 WWP, Dinner Ideas, Food Photos, Lunch Ideas, Salad Ideas, Vegetarian Ideas | 7 Comments
Did I tell you that the number one benefit of joining a CSA for me has been an increase in leafy green consumption. I gotta be honest, I rarely bought anything but a bag of baby spinach before joining the farm and even then I would just use it for traditional salad or cold like lettuce. I didn’t grow up a "greens" eater so it just doesn’t come natural to me.

Yet Another Chili Idea
Posted in: Dinner Ideas, Food Photos, Soup/Stew Ideas | 15 Comments
In the fall I could make a chili every weekend but unfortunately the husband isn’t a fan. I know, crazy… right? I mean WHO doesn’t like CHILI?!? Especially on a cool fall day! This drives me nuts as chili is the ultimate comfort food for me. I don’t care if you make it with beef, turkey, or only beans. Scoop it over rice, bulgur, pasta or even couscous, doesn’t matter. Top it with some cheese and it’s love in a bowl in my opinion.
