Gingerbread Martinis (Without the Guilt)
Give me a gingerbread cookie and I’m a happy momma. Give me a gingerbread cookie I can drink, one for adults, a little something to sip at a holiday party or while wrapping gifts on Christmas Eve, and I’m happier than my kids on Christmas morning!

I’m looking forward to another one of these on Christmas Eve, snuggled up in warm blankets, Christmas slippers on, and watching It’s a…

Macho Nachos!!!
Taco Tuesday alert! Ok. So it’s not exactly tacos. More like deconstructed tacos. Ok. Nachos. Nacho Tuesday! That’s a thing, you know. Well, after tonight’s dinner, it’s definitely going to be a thing in our house! Our 6 year old raves about the macho nachos she has at school. Chips, taco meat, and covered in cheese- that kind from the can. Yeah, I’m drooling. But being the Fit Mommy that I am, I wanted to create a healthier version that we can all enjoy, without the guilt! Ingredients: 1 lb lean ground turkey 1/2 cup fresh salsa 1/4 c chopped onion 1 tsp chili powder 1 tsp cumin…
