Anyone else feeling the effects of the time change? I definitely missed the lost hour yesterday as I felt like I was playing catch up all day. So much that this blog post didn't get written. With one child at preschool and the other one napping, I better hurry and get this done while I ...

Sesame almond energy balls
Just when things started settling down and I was feeling like I was getting into a good routine again, I got thrown for a loop. Luke is really congested. Newborn babies only breathe through their nose, so being congested causes huge problems. Eating and sleeping become really difficult. If baby ...
How dinner went down: February 26th-March 3rd
Having a new baby is affecting my memory. I just had to sit here for 20 minutes because for the life of me I couldn't remember what we had for dinner last Sunday. Now that I think of it, I probably wouldn't have been super quick to recall a dinner from a week prior before I had Luke, either. You ...
How dinner went down: February 19th-25th
Welcome to your weekly peek into my kitchen at dinner time. This was my first full week going dairy-free. It hasn't been too difficult to find my go-to recipes without dairy, but a week without cheese is still a sad week in my book. Nonetheless, there was some serious tastiness for dinner this ...
Easy homemade wheat thin crackers
Meghan has a play group that we have weekly play dates with. It's a great opportunity for her to practice her social skills, sharing, and...who am I kidding? It's a time for me to talk and connect with other moms. One thing I miss about going to work every day is the daily adult interaction. So ...
How dinner went down: February 12th-18th
Here's your weekly peek at the Happy Healthy Mama family dinner table. Sunday Vegetable lasagna. I don't have a recipe as I never use one when making veggie lasagna. (If you need one let me know and next time I make it I'll write down what I do and post it for ya!) A friend of mine ...
Sesame noodles with red pepper and edamame
I'm short on time today so I won't even try to get my tired brain to come up with a clever introduction to this recipe. I'll just tell you that it's one of the tastiest quick dinners I've ever made. When a dinner can be ready in less than 30 minutes and delivers big on flavor, it's a winner in my ...
How dinner went down: February 5th-11th
Here it is: another week of how dinner went down in our house. Grocery shopping day snuck up on me and I wasn't fully armed with a meal plan this week. I hate when that happens because grocery shopping inevitably takes longer and I often either forget something I need or buy things I don't need. ...
1-Minute Sugar-Free Brownie
This 1-minute sugar free brownie is made is your microwave and you'd never know it's healthy! Warning: this recipe may change your life. I know it's changed mine. What if I told you you could have a gooey, chocolate-y, sweet brownie that was also sugar free and totally healthy in one ...
Apple cheddar frittata
When I need a quick and easy dinner, one staple item I turn to often is eggs. They lend fast preparation, are a good source of protein, and are chock full of nutrients. Eggs also happen to be economical and delicious. This is a dinner that can be on your table in under 30 minutes. If you're ...
How dinner went down: January 29th-February 4th
I love reading blog posts with weekly meal plans. I always like to see what other families eat for dinner in a typical week and can usually find new ideas for my own weekly meal plan. I've been hesitant to post my own meal plans here, though, because I don't always stick to them. Sometimes I ...
Orange Almond Energy Balls
Let's face it. We all could use a little more energy. Everyone has something in their life that steals their energy, whether it's a demanding career, school, or being a mom. For me, it's juggling being a wife and mother to a 3 year old and newborn that is robbing me of my usual energy ...
