Here it is. Finally. The recipe many moms (and their adorable toddlers) have been waiting for. Mac N Cheese made better. It’s fantastic and of course has some extra veggies hidden in it. I’ve made 2 different versions and Annabelle has liked both of them, but she’s never had mac n cheese from a box […]

Not chicken broth from a box or can but good, old fashioned, home made broth that has spent hours, or even days, simmering is one of the best foods you can eat. Not only for fertility but also during pregnancy, lactation and every other stage of life. It even makes a fabulous addition to baby […]

I’ve been going back and forth will raw milk co-ops since Annabelle turned 1. We’ve finally joined one with a membership that delivers every other week so for the last 2 months or so we’ve been getting a gallon of raw milk every other week. I love that we have it, except I don’t really […]

It’s been a while since I’ve stayed up late making freezer snacks for Annabelle but last night I was in the mood to make her something new. Her diet has changed recently, we’ve gone gluten free and (mostly) dairy free and I’m still having a hard time getting her to enjoy treats that are based […]

This is by far one of my favorite hearty salad recipes and it’s perfect for warmer weather since it’s served chilled. If you make it a few hours ahead of time make sure to toss the avocado seed into the bowl too, it will help keep the avocados from browning! Ingredients 2 heads of broccoli […]
