The Best Grilled Fish Tacos
Move over taco truck!!! This momma made the BEST tacos!!! And y’all know me, I’m picky as hell about my tacos. So I needed to make my own! I was CRAVING restaurant quality tacos with all the fixings but without the $50 takeout price too. Now, let me warn you. Iām not fancy. Iām no Martha Stewart. But Iām all for creating healthier, more affordable, delicious meals that our family will eat… except tonight when they asked for eggs but they did try a bite of everything and didnāt complain- Annie even loved it. š I used a yummy amberjack my husband Luke caught fishing in Florida, busted out my grill…

Easy Loaded Potato Veggie Soup (Kid Approved)
One of the best compliments I think Iāve ever received came from my ten year old after she took a bite… āMom! This is delicious! You should open a restaurant and call it āMommyās Soup Kitchenā and serve soups just like this!ā She doesnāt know I secretly would love to open a little cafe with hearty and healthy soups, gourmet sandwiches, and all kinds of coffee and desserts. But that dream exhausts me to the core thinking about it. And Iām much more content whipping up delicious little family friendly recipes with a healthy twist in the comfort of my own kitchen, and sharing them with friends on my blog.…

Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Adam and Eve. Romeo and Juliet. BeyoncĆ© and Jay-Z. Peanut butter and jelly. Buffalo chicken and sweet potatoes. Ok, so that last pair seemed questionable at first but I thought about all of the things I loved. Chicken. Buffalo wing sauce. Sweet potatoes. It HAD to be good. Well, turns out I have a new favorite way to stuff my sweet potatoes! Inspired by one of the lovely ladies in my current fitness and nutrition accountability group, I had to try my spin on these. So, you can do this one of two ways: Slow-cook the chicken in a little buffalo sauce and ranch seasoning or Bolthouse Farm’s Greek…

Gluten Free Chicken Noodle Soup
When I was little, my mom made this homemade chicken noodle soup that was to die for. Every time I was sick. I could count on this yummy, creamy, delicious soup. I couldn’t even tell you what she put in it (maybe I should ask her for the recipe) but it was delicious. So with some change-in-the-season coughs coming around, a runny nosed toddler, a croupy three year old, and a feverish 6 year old, it was time for some crockpot chicken noodle soup today. Every child needs that one soup memory. That warm your soul, heal me when I’m sick, best mommy remedy. This is that soup. …

Easy Egg Muffin Cups
Breakfast is a disaster at our house. One kid off to first grade. One momma off to nursing school. One daddy off to work, and sometimes two little kids off to daycare when Grandma’s not here. I don’t have time to make 5 different breakfasts. I don’t have time to make my own breakfast some days but it’s the most important meal of the day so I don’t allow myself to skip it. This is where meal planning comes into play. Because we try to eat clean, natural foods and avoid artificial ingredients at every opportunity, a fresh, healthy breakfast is important to us. So a little time this morning…

Chicken Stuffed Peppers- Two Ways
As a parent you’re always trying to stuff something into food for your kids to eat it. Disguising muffins as cupcakes but packing them with carrots and zucchini. Adding flaxseed to oatmeal. Blending up extra veggies into a pizza sauce or even making cauliflower nuggets! All things I’ve tried and have been successful with when it comes to what my kids eat! Fortunately I have kids who love their veggies but we’re hard up to get them to eat proteins. So shredded chicken stuffed into these peppers was a hit for us! I love them with quinoa, my husband is a brown rice fan. The girls ate both š …
