Recently, I had the opportunity to try out some new Weight Watchers® cheese and cream cheese items. First off, I want to say that while I have heard many success stories from friends about Weight Watchers and their program I haven’t tried it myself and don’t plan to. However, I like cheese, my kids love [...]
Since Mamavation, I have been trying to make a conscious effort to still eat healthy, even though I still crave sweets and desserts. So what better way then to take a classic treat like cupcakes and add vegetables!! That’s right. These cupcakes are not only delicious and sweet, but actually have veggies in them. I bet your [...]
A month or so ago, while journaling my daily food and activity on the Mamavation forums, I noticed one of the other sistas had oatmeal cupcakes for a snack. Curious to know what exactly they were, she linked me a recipe for Oatmeal Cupcakes. Of course I had to try them out for myself! So earlier this week, [...]
The other day, I decided to trick my girls for breakfast. I told them I was making waffles, like I do usually every other weekend.

Every Easter, as with most holiday’s I always buy a huge bag of potatoes to make either mashed potatoes or some sort of potato dish. And every time, I always end up with at least half the bag of potato’s after. Do you tend to end up with leftover potatoes after a holiday meal? Then [...]
Last week at my Apples of Gold class, we learned to make this Green Chili Egg dish. Over the weekend my family was in town to visit and we decided to get together for brunch. I figured this was a great time to make the dish myself. Well, everyone loved it. It’s a very simple [...]
Honestly, when I start to think about Clean Eating, I think of spending all day cooking. Lately I noticed thought, since trying to cook more from scratch, that it doesn’t necessarily take as long and can actually be quite simple to do. For example, my daughter wanted Barbecue Ribs for her birthday dinner this week. When I [...]
Want a super-easy-everyone-will-love snack or dessert?? I posted this recipe a while back, but it totally deserved an update!

The title grabbed me, and the idea grabbed me, but honestly at first glance of this book I was not very impressed. Then I read it.
