We eat fish at least once a week in our house. I’m lucky to have an incredible fish monger within walking distance to my house so it’s super easy to just hop on over and get fresh fish whenever I feel like it. I usually serve fish on the days when I want something healthy …

It’s time for a good, old Sugar Cookie Summer Berry Crisp. Recently I found myself with a tube of pre-made sugar cookie dough and no idea what to do with it. I needed it to test a recipe for an assignment but ended up going another way so it was left unused. I’m a bake …
Graham crackers are a childhood snack staple. Kids love them and parents feel good about indulging because they are healthy and seem like a more sensible option than let’s say, an Oreo cookie. On the surface, store bought graham crackers may seem healthy and a great snack to feed you little ones but upon closer …
Warmer weather is upon us which means lots and lots of potlucks, cook-outs and BBQ’s. I don’t know about you but, no outdoor meal is complete without a crisp and refreshing veggie salad. I mean, you have to have something healthy to go along with all of that grilled meat, right? Lately I’m not such …
Have you ever had Wheat Germ French Toast? If not, you are in for a treat. I have two boys under four years old and to say their eating habits are erratic would be an understatement. One day they love something and the next won’t even look at it. It can be frustrating but I …
My obsession with homemade yogurt started after I read the book French Women Don’t Get Fat. The book itself was a fun read and it really reinforced what I already knew about European eating habits from my own time spent in France. The French aren’t a low-fat or fat-free culture. They eat everything (in moderation) …
Have you had morning muffins? In theory, Mother’s Day should be a day where mothers around the world get to kick back, relax and do nothing. Feet up, breakfast in bed and maybe even a bubble bath seems like a great way to be honored and adored but let’s face it, how many of us …
Have you ever heard of Broccoli and Cheddar Pancakes? As parents we are always on the search for easy and delicious ways to feed our kids. Life is busy, kids can be picky and there never seems to be enough recipes to keep those little bodies nourished. I spend a lot of my time developing …
Who remembers Jello pudding pops? Better yet, who remembers those Bill Cosby Jello pudding pop commercials? For some strange reason those commercials always stuck in my head. Maybe it was Bill’s smile or the funny way he interacted with the kids or it could be the fact that frozen pudding on a stick is like …
It’s easy to get into a lunchtime rut, especially when it comes to packing kids lunches and snacks for school. I have to admit, I’m not very good with the cutesy lunches. It’s not that I don’t think they are adorable, I’m just not very well versed in making things look precious or adorable (not …
Stromboli is something my mother-in-law makes every New Years Day. It’s something I will always equate with her and my husbands family. If you’ve never had it before, Stromboli is an Italian stuffed bread filled with anything from vegetables and cheese to meat. It’s crazy simple to make and the possibilities are endless when it …
Sure, kids love mac and cheese and tacos but raise your hand if you are over the regulation chicken finger thing. You can’t see me of course, but I have both hands up. In fact, if I see one more chicken finger on a “kids” menu, I think I’ll scream. Sure, kids like them (unless …
