Hey everyone, here you can find my favorite recipes. One of my favorite things to do is cook for my family. They are always asking me “what’s to eat”? For me it’s a calming way to relax and get my mind off of things. There is something satisfying about cooking a meal and having everyone want seconds. It’s a feel good moment. I love to make people happy and it’s an amazing thing when you can make someone happy with food. Food can be healing, comforting and we need it everyday. It brings together families, and is soothing for the soul.

I’ll be adding my favorite recipes on this page as time goes on. These recipes are all the usual things I cook and are family approved. My son will always tell me if it’s not good and I’ll only put on here things he approves! I also will have recipes only I enjoy, (not-boy approved), sound selfish? Well hey, moms matter too!

I try to cook with organic options when possible and always less than $30 for a family of 4. There are times when I like to splurge, usually during the holidays but for the most part I keep it budget friendly and healthy as possible. I’ll be listing breakfast, lunch, and dinner options as well as deserts. I’m definitely not a professional chef, just a mom that likes food and and enjoys cooking. 

Someday I’d love to make a cookbook with all my favorite recipes. Who knows if I can get the proper photos and perfect kitchen backdrop in the future.  Something to look forward to, goals ladies! We all have to dream!

I hope you enjoy my recipes and get a chance to try them. I’m pretty sure you will love them too!
