Leftovers Vegetable Pasta Soup
We have had so many cold days in Kentucky this “spring”. It was still in the 40s in the mornings up until just a couple of days ago. So while generally we’re not thinking about warm soups this time of year, I was still looking for food to warm me up. Do you ever have vegetables

Homemade Peanut Butter
I really like to have healthy peanut butter but I hate paying the price for the healthier versions. I thought to myself the other day “why not make it?” So i did. I just used my food processor and blended the ingredients and it was super tasty. I don’t think that I will always be

Salted and Toasted Breadcrumbs, a Topping for Pastas or Salads
This is such a simple idea but it really transforms a simple meal with little effort. We have used breadcrumbs toasted and non-toasted, but it really adds that extra oomph especially to a simple spaghetti recipe. I love lentil meatballs on my spaghetti, but sometimes I really don’t feel like taking the time to make

Broccoli and Bean Pasta Salad
Well, it is May! Can you believe that? Where did April go? This year is just flying by. It’s really starting to warm up here in Texas too, and I am about ready to start going to the swimming pools. We are so excited for summer! What’s more perfect for warm days than a nice

Peanut Butter and Mounds O’Fruit Sandwich
This is our go-to lunch. I think we have this at least twice a week. Like I’ve mentioned before, we have salads every other day for lunch, but on the days we don’t have salads, I’d say that probably every other time I have one of these. Besides peanut butter and jelly, this is definitely
