Sausage, Potato & Cheese Breakfast Casserole w/ Jimmy Dean Sausage Crumbles #JDCrumbles

I tease some of my friends because they are ON IT for breakfast in their household. They make pancakes, sausage, fruit salad, AND oatmeal for their kiddos (yes, that's one meal), whereas my son has been known to gobble a handful of dry cereal on his way out the door. I'm trying to do better. My best tip has been to make breakfast the night before. When breakfast is a mere minute versus 10 … [Continue reading...]

[In The Kitchen] Mardi Gras-Inspired Sausage and Shrimp Alfredo Pasta #Spon

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Johnsonville Sausage. The opinions and text are all mine. I'm pretty sure if you look deep into my family tree, you'll find some Creole heritage. There has to be. I'm in love with all things Creole and the food is but one of my obsessions. I've been trying to get to Louisiana, home of the best Creole and Cajun food in the country, for … [Continue reading...]

[In The Kitchen] Cajun Jambalaya Pasta With Shrimp, Chicken, And Sausage Recipe

This is one of my go-to "fancy" recipes. It's impressive when finished, but it's deceptively simple to make. I usually bust this out on the weekends for an at-home date night, since no matter what restaurant we go to, my husband orders the exact same thing: the Cajun pasta. I make mine with a lot of spice because my husband has the tolerance of a true New Orleans boy, even though he's from … [Continue reading...]

[In The Kitchen] My 2013 Christmas Menu

For the past two weeks, I've been on a vegetarian diet. My only goal was to see if I could do it and to expand my collection of go-to recipes. I'd say I've only been somewhat successful because I underestimated how much meat I truly eat. I've been craving a Five Guys burger like nobody's business. But now that Christmas is almost here, I've got an excuse to get in the kitchen and cook really … [Continue reading...]

4 Secrets To Getting The Food On The Table Without Losing It

It's the end of the day and its time for dinner. You walk in your kitchen, stand there for a moment, and think about what it is you are going to make for dinner. Then you head to the pantry, then to the fridge, then back to the pantry and start to do what I like to call "the dinnertime two-step." You're twirling around your kitchen going from one place to another, doing some kind of busted version … [Continue reading...]

6 Tips To Wean Your Kids Off Sugar

Note: I am not a nutritionist. I am simply a mom who noticed her kids were eating too much sugar and decided to do something about it. Ask your child's pediatrician if you have any questions about your kid's growth and development. 1) Watch what YOU eat.   I had (have?) a serious sweet tooth. Doesn't matter if it's cupcakes (my treat of choice), brownies, cinnamon rolls, or cookies. After I eat … [Continue reading...]

The Beginners Guide To Shopping At Aldi’s

It's no secret that I love Aldi's. (Note: Yup, I call it "Aldi's" even though it's just "Aldi." I'm country, what can I say?) I talk about the discount grocery chain at every opportunity and the low prices actually make me giddy when it's time to go grocery shopping. (Before I continue, let me tell you this is NOT a sponsored post. This is just me sharing my love of Aldi's. Although, if they … [Continue reading...]
