Quick and easy meals in a flash:

As a busy home-school momma I try to meal plan and stick to it but of course life happens and inevitably interruptions tend to come and upend even the best laid plans. So, I like to have an arsenal of recipes to pull from in a flash that are not only quick, easy to put together, delicious, healthy and I keep several comfort food type meals in my list too. I will add to this list periodically or when I find an amazing new recipe that I think you all will love and that your kiddos will love too because lets be honest, if our kiddos won't eat it we usually don't end up making it right?!😉

If you have a yummy list of your family faves I'd love for you to share the wealth with the rest of us! I'd love to glean from your baking/cooking insights, tips and tricks and look forward to sharing our recipes together friends 😀

Happy cooking!

Tonight I made them with a bbq sauce, but I plan to make half with ranch and half with a homemade sauce next time, to change them up a bit. What I liked most about these simple rolls is that I can make them with any meat I happen to have on hand & the topping and sauce op...

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas: This yummy recipe for chicken enchiladas is sure to be a crowd pleaser and be a hit even with picky eaters! It is super easy and adaptable, you can whip it up in a snap while catering to your families health needs/preferences and individual tastes :) What I love most is that I can prep multiple dishes all at once, one for tonight and one for later in the week or to pop in the freezer for a night I am short on time and but want to provide a homecooked meal for my family (double bonus🙌). First start with gathering all your ingredients: -Tortillas: Either store bought or homemade ( I love to use flat out brand, 5 grain fold it tortilla's (healthier version) or Mission whole wheat or flour tortillas (my kiddos prefer these as they are a bit softer and less chewy texture). -Meat: Chicken (or any other meat could be substituted. *I also love to use ground elk or organic grass fed ground beef, both are equally delicious) -Rice: Basmati...
