I decided to purchase a new airfryer! This is a quick and delicious recipe using an airfryer to make okra fries. The okra are not as crispy as they get when I grill them but the ends and seeds are crispy. They are more like roasted than crisp fried. Could go a few more minutes if looking for extra crispy. […]
Infused oil is such a great flavor booster for sautéing anything (especially fish) and I almost always use it when I roast or grill vegetables with sea salt. We like things a little spicy and this oil packs flavor with minimal effort. I get mine at HEB and I noticed there is a way to purchase it online through their website. […]
I have made a commitment to myself to do the Whole30 program. It’s basically eating whole foods like meats, fruits and vegetables while avoiding all grains, dairy and additives like sugar. I have read the book, signed up for their newsletter and am now going to try and blog my way through this program. First, I’m really glad my local HEB […]
We discovered this cereal and it’s delicious. It’s gluten free because it’s made from lentil, navy and garbanzo beans. It’s sweet without being too sweet and my kids love it. I found it at Whole Foods Market but its also available on Amazon.

So I’d rather cut away some of the sandwich than have the whole thing go untouched. Here’s what I packed today: Whole Wheat Bread, Nitrate Free ham, Organic Cheese Hard Boiled […]
My kids are crazy about deer sausage. My husband is a hunter and gets us stocked up with lots of meat during deer season. I slice them up and pan fry them until they are a little crisp on both sides. This would work with whatever type of summer sausage you have on hand or even hot dogs. This […]
When I make smoothies in the morning I usually have leftover and I pour it in these Kinderville Ice Pop molds. I love to send these to school as a snack because they are so healthy and my kids LOVE them. They stay frozen a long time because they are kind of thick. They are silicone so the frozen smoothie pops up […]
This was my grandmother’s recipe but I changed it a little and turned it grain free. These bentzes are tasty sweet or savory and are super easy and healthy! They are kind of like a pancake but with a creamy flavor. They are moist with an amazing texture. You’ve got to try this recipe. My grandmother said these were a favorite […]
