Now that spring is officially here, we are all about delicious spring vegetables like artichokes and asparagus. While Mathlete isn’t as big of a fan, I can’t get enough asparagus! I just love it. To make him a little happier about eating it so often, I make him prosciutto wrapped asparagus.

Our Very Favorite Easter Recipes

March 22, 2017 by Shannah Coe 8 Comments

Growing up, Easter was one of the holidays where we always got together for lunch as a family after church. Usually, we went to my grandma’s house and she cooked a ridiculous amount of food. There was always a ham and then what seemed like an endless amount of side dishes and desserts. Now, as an adult, I typically host Easter at our house and love looking for Easter recipes to serve. I don’t cook nearly as much food as my grandma did but I have a few favorite Easter recipes that I always include.

I am excited to partner with ALDI to bring your one of our family’s favorite holiday recipes. While this post was sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

For the past several years, we have had German au pairs help us with childcare in our home. Each one of them has talked about ALDI and how wonderful it is. However, it wasn’t until just recently that I visited the ALDI near our home to check it out for myself. I went planning to just check it out but left with all of the ingredients for my family’s recipe for the best green bean casserole!

Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash

November 7, 2016 by Shannah Coe 4 Comments

Let’s talk Brussels sprouts. I absolutely hated them until about a year and half ago. I think a lot of people have a similar reaction to them because they’ve probably never had them prepared well. I can attest that preparation makes all the difference. Last year, for Thanksgiving and Christmas, we had maple bacon Brussels sprouts. I am pretty sure that will be requested again this year but I need a vegetarian option for the veggie lovers at our table. So, I will be offering roasted Brussels sprouts with butternut squash this year.

One of our favorite breakfast items is dark chocolate cranberry baked oatmeal.

Easter is coming up and for us that means carrot cake. I am not sure how carrot cake became such a staple in our Easter celebrations but I am certainly not complaining. You just can’t beat the combination of the spiced cake and cream cheese frosting. Mathlete tends to be more of a cookie/bar fan versus cake so I am making him some carrot cake cookie bars instead of the regular cake.
