Indian food is probably one of my favorite cuisines. We used to eat at our favorite one in New Jersey almost weekly. Trevor and I have yet to find an Indian restaurant around here that we love, so we end up cooking it at home more now. It’s turned out to be a really good […]

Mac & Cheese Bites
When you say mac & cheese to most people, they think of the boxed variety with the powdered orange cheese. It’s super cheap and easy to make, but tastes pretty gritty. When we go out to restaurants, they make creamy mac & cheese from a rue with nice pasta and cheese. It’s so delicious! But, […]

Egg Salad & Avocado Toasts
I never really liked eggs until I was pregnant with Amelia, about 6 years ago. Ever since then, I’ve eaten them everyday! I love a good fried egg over a creamy piece of avocado toast. The combination is *chef’s kiss*! But sometimes, I want something a bit different. So today, I decided to mash them […]
Coconut Curried Chickpeas
In Hoboken, NJ (where we used to live), our favorite place was called Karma Kafe. It was a small, family-owned place that had the BEST Indian food. But, since we moved to Florida, I’ve yet to find an Indian food restaurant I love. It means that to fill my Indian food cravings, I’ve had to […]
Butternut Squash Turkey Skillet
We’re still trying to do low-carb eating in our house for the month of January. We’ve had a couple of hiccups, like anyone. But that’s how life goes, ya know? Well, for tonight’s dinner, I made something good. Like really good! I prepped the veggies the day before knowing we were going to be short […]
Classic Mac and Cheese
I woke up this morning in the mood for some real comfort food. It’s just so cold here in Florida and I need something to warm me up from the inside out. Mac and cheese is so good for this and it’s a yummy go-to for kids and adults. I know my kids love to […]

Ms. Lee’s Carrot Salad
Amelia has been practicing some life skills in her class and one of them involves peeling carrots and potatoes. It’s one of those things you don’t really think of practicing with your kids but when they do learn, it makes a world of difference. It means they can help with one more thing for dinner […]
