Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
During the holiday season, we do a ton of entertaining. Each year, we host a huge Christmas party where all our friends and some family members get to spend time together during the busy holiday season. Of course, as with most parties, the food is a major piece of the party and I like to go all out with lots of different delicious items on the food table that capture all our varied food preferences. One of my favorites this year is an Asian-inspired recipe: wasabi ginger soy tuna crisps.

Since having kids, Mathlete and I don’t make to watch football games in person very often any longer. But, we still LOVE to watch our team play so we host a lot of tailgates at home. After a few years of successful home tailgates, I’m sharing my five essentials for the perfect tailgate.

I am excited to work with Hungry Jack to bring you great ideas for hosting a breakFEAST Pancake Bar Party. While this post is sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
All over the country schools are back in session and mornings are hectic and busy. But, that doesn’t mean that breakfast isn’t still the most important meal of the day. September is All-American Breakfast Month and I am focusing on making sure my family gets a delicious breakfast while also throwing in a little fun with a breakFEAST pancake bar featuring lots of yummy toppings like honey walnut butter.

I’m proud to partner with CVS/pharmacy as a Gold Emblem Super Bowl Party Host. I am being sponsored to help lead this campaign, but all opinions expressed are my own, and all product claims or program details shared should be verified at CVS.com or with the appropriate manufacturers.
Have you recovered from the aftermath of the BIG game? Between all of the talks about the plays, the commercials and, of course, the food, I think I have finally covered all the topics I wanted to discuss with friends about the big game. My favorite topic: the food. And, even though the party is over, there are plenty other games in other sports to come so I wanted to share my top 10 sports party foods based on what we had at my Super Bowl party.

Over the weekend, some incredible football was played and the two teams going to the Super Bowl this year were set. That means, around the country, tons of people starting planning their Super Bowl parties. I know I definitely kicked my planning into high gear knowing it was just a few weeks away. As I was planning, I was trying to think of the requirements for a great party and thought I would share my 5 must haves for your Super Bowl Party!

I’ve talked a lot here and on social media about my adventure doing Whole30 this month (I even had a friend share her words of wisdom!). I started on January 5th without thinking about how that might impact our Super Bowl plans though. I’ll still be finishing up Whole30 when we host our Super Bowl party which means I need some Whole30 Super Bowl recipes to make so I can actually eat! Just in case you are in the same boat, or maybe just want some healthier options at your party, I’ve gathered up 13 recipes that are Whole30 compliant and perfect for game day!

It is no secret that I am a HUGE fan of Thai food. From Thai Butternut Squash soup to a host of other things, we eat Thai inspired dishes a lot in our house. Mathlete spends a lot of time begging me to make/eat something other than Thai inspired dishes. So, when I was dreaming up recipes to serve at our upcoming party for the BIG GAME, I knew I wanted to bring a Thai influence into at least one of the game time food options. Our party will be filled with mostly men so I knew French fries would be a hit and decided to make Pad Thai French fries.

You are totally going to give me the side eye but I want to talk about New Year’s Eve. Yep…we haven’t quite made it to Christmas yet and already I am looking to the next holiday. Why? Because, after Christmas, you have less than a week to get prepared for New Year’s Eve! Only 6 days until the biggest party of the year. So, I want to help you get prepared by sharing 25 New Year’s Eve appetizer ideas so December 26th doesn’t hit and you go into major panic mode on what to eat.

If you follow me on Facebook, you’ve seen my saga of the broken oven. Just when we thought it was a glitch, the oven completely died. Of course, that happened 3 days from our annual holiday party which was totally stressful. I immediately had to rethink all of my holiday party recipes to limit how much of it needed oven time. That meant no cookies, puff pastries or anything like that. Instead, I decided to make the star of the dessert table Chipotle Chocolate Truffles.

Every year, I host a Christmas party where we invite all of our family and friends to come and celebrate with us over drinks and food. I start planning the menu about 2 months in advance and am always looking for new things to add to it. I had been toying with the idea to recreate a favorite appetizer from a local Italian restaurant but that sort of morphed into this bacon macaroni and cheese bites the more I played around with it.
