As a mother, one of my goals is to raise fabulous little cooks and bakers so when they leave the nest they can create healthy and delicious meals. I grew up watching my mom and dad drive through the drive through, but I never learned how to cook. Cooking and baking is a fun event…
I am passionate about creating delicious healthy meals for my family.

Roasted Tomato Soup
I love tomatoes they are one of my favorite foods. I love to eat tomatoes in salads, with a little salt right off the plant, in sauces, but my favorite way to eat tomatoes is in soup. Growing up my mom made grilled cheese sandwiches and out of a can tomato soup. I thought it…
Nutella Chocolate Kiss Acorn Cookies (Gluten Free)
Can summer really be officially over? I feel like I should have done more with my kids or gone more places, but then again I am so excited for Fall. I love this time of year with the cooler temperatures, the color changes in the leaves and all those glorious yummy food to eat and…
Cooking Asparagus Made Easy
Growing up in parts of Western Nevada I remember taking long walks with my parents along the drainage canals that fed water to the local farmers crops. Along side these canals grew wild asparagus. It was fun picking and foraging the asparagus that grew like weeds near the water’s edge. My mom made many meals…

Nutella Banana Sushi

Quinoa Coconut Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

Quinoa Burger Patties
When we decided to go gluten free as a family, one of the new foods introduced to us was the seed quinoa. I had never heard of it, but quinoa is now one of our favorite staples in the pantry. Quinoa is wonderful because it cooks quickly, it is a super nutritious complete protein, and…
