Fajita Chicken Quinoa

One of my favorite dishes is fajitas, but I didn’t have any tortillas the other night when I went to make it. I didn’t want rice, so I tried out quinoa, and this turned out phenomenal. You will not be disappointed. I love quinoa because it makes a great rice substitute without all the simple…

Gummy Legos!

I cannot take credit for this recipe. My husband found it on thekingofrandom.com, an awesome website full of fun science projects and household hacks. I will not be modifying the steps much, as the King of Random’s version is tried and true. He’s rather scientific about these things, dontcha know.   Pour your gelatin and jell-o…

Banana Fudge Pops

I had three sad looking bananas sitting in my fruit basket, but I wasn’t in the mood to make banana bread, so each day they sat there drawing guilt from me because I couldn’t bring myself to throw them away, but I couldn’t bring myself to make banana bread either. So I decided to turn…

Swedish Fishie Swigger

These are a perfect drink to do at a Summer party at the beach or pool, or for a child’s birthday party. I use Sprite or 7-up for this recipe, but you can also use alcoholic beverages if you like.   First you obviously need some Swedish Fish… …and some 7-Up.     Then just…

PB Banana Sandwich

I had the craziest hankering for a deep-fried peanut butter and banana sandwich the other day. I honestly don’t know where it came from. No, I’m not pregnant. I just saw it in a vision. Then I realized the deep fried part probably wouldn’t work out very well, so I thought maybe I could grill it…

Sriracha Popcorn

EAAAAAASY sriracha popcorn. You can do this with tapatio sauce as well using the same measurements. Sriracha is a tad spicier, but it’s also got a subtle sweetness to it. It just depends what mood you are in!                 Save Print Sriracha Popcorn Prep time:  5 mins Cook…

PB Banana Snacks

I got this idea from Skinny by Tomorrow on a Facebook post and HAD to steal it. I like it because it’s a good mix of healthy and fun. And it’s easy to make! Sort of.   Slice your bananas and smear on some peanut butter.   Give them a good squish with a top…

Homemade “Squeeze” Babyfood

I am so excited about this recipe because it is so easy, and soooo much cheaper than the store bought pouches (which run anywhere from $1.35 to $1.85 where I’m from). And you can make whatever the heck flavors you want. I am going with an oatmeal base and a variety of fruits to choose from, with some…

Carrot “Fries”

These make a sleek, delicious alternative to the more starchy, greasy counterpart. And if you dip them in my famous Fry Sauce or my Special Sauce, then you won’t be able to stop eating these suckers. Then again, the sauce takes the healthy aspect back down a notch…but pay no attention to that! We’re here to…

Valentine Gummies

Try something original and fruity this year for your sweetheart. Homemade gummies are a yummy, healthy alternative to all the candy being circulated at this time of year. Your honey will love it. This is a really fun project to do with the kids as well, so if they are looking for something to make for mom…
