Fresh Orange Julius

When summer time comes around I always want to eat a lot more fruit. I don’t if its the weather or the bigger variety of fresh fruit available. But I just crave it.  Lately in the evening Nate and I have been making smoothies or milk shakes (without ice cream) to quench our need for a […]

Neapolitan Pancakes

Here I am (Aimee) reposting a delicious recipe that my mom posted over 2 years ago. When we first started this blog we were just posting recipes we liked, mostly for each other as I don’t think we had anyone else reading. At that point we weren’t taking any pictures of our recipes. Even when […]

Quinoa Burrito Bowls

I’ve found that the best way to keep myself motivated is by making lists. Whether its a list of long term goals to accomplish or a simple check list of day to day things I need to accomplish. Nate and I decided that by the end of the summer we want to look back and […]

Simple Fresh Garden Salad

Tonight I was excited to make a salad from ingredients taken out of my little garden.  My garden is small but I have kale, peas, spinach, romaine lettuce, and mint growing in it that were all used in the salad.  I was a little concerned about using the kale in the salad, especially worried about […]

Peanut Butter Caramel Popcorn

Spinach Dip

One of our favorite places to “shop” is Costco. How is it that when you go to Costco with the plan to buy 1 thing, you end up buying way more than that and spending way too much money? Okay, in all honesty, since we started watching our budget and trying to save more we […]

Beans, Rice and Ham Soup

By now your Easter ham may be all eaten up and gone but at our household we are still enjoying it and even have a couple of baggies full in the freezer.  We certainly have enjoyed it in sandwiches with mustard but this year I choose to do so much more and perhaps a little […]

Chocolate Chip Cookies for Two

Sometimes Nate gets mad at me for making dessert recipes because I am usually pretty good at only eating 2 or so cookies at a time (I count my calories everyday, so I can still get my sweet fix without blowing my calories for the day) but that leaves a bunch more cookies to be eaten. […]

Are you sick and tired of me posting dessert recipes yet? I truly am sorry if you are. But I love making desserts, you see I love sweets, more than anything. But sometimes I like cooking other things too. Actually, I always like cooking other things too. I really just wish I had enough time/money […]

Mini Cadbury Egg Blondies

When I think of Easter, I think of Easter candy. It’s sad for me to say that my mind doesn’t first go to the true importance of Easter. I am very grateful that our Savior, Jesus Christ was resurrected, and that we can celebrate it on this day. But, I do love my Easter candy. Why […]

Pasta Salad

 My favorite candy in the whole wide world is skittles. Although most the time I prefer chocolate over fruity candy, I am always in the mood for skittles. Okay, I’m always in the mood for candy in general, but skittles are the best. I love all the different packages of skittles, crazy cores, original, tropical, […]
