With each new year comes a renewed determination to make better food choices. I try to swap sugary snacks for healthier options. I also try to make swaps in the meals I cook too such as replacing pre-made sauces with homemade ones and lowering my carb intake by using vegetable noodles more often. These easy teriyaki shrimp vegetable noodles are perfect for accomplishing all of those goals while still giving me a delicious, take-out quality meal at home.

Once Thanksgiving passes, my kitchen turns to holiday baking. While I love baking sweet treats for my family, my absolute favorite is baking holiday treats for others. From contributing to the annual bake sale to raise money for charity to baking for neighbors and friends, I just can’t get enough. Just after Thanksgiving, I made these gluten free pecan pie bars as a way to say thank you to someone’s dad for doing me a huge favor and saving me a ton of time during the busy holiday season.

Our fall season is always super busy with school, sports, family activities and trying to spend a ton of time outdoors before it turns too cold. I adore fall foods like pumpkin, squash, and sweet potatoes. But, while we love all the comfort foods that fall brings, I find it can be difficult sometimes to cook some of those meals in the time we have. Plus, we are trying to eat a little healthier and add in lots of vegetables where possible into our diet. With shrimp vegetable noodle chow mein, I can still get my fall butternut squash fix and reach my healthier meal goal in a quick and easy meal my family loves.

I’m not worried though because I have this recipe for honey garlic shrimp stir fry and Minute® Ready to Serve Family Bowls on my side to make dinner quick and delicious.

Long weekends are all about lounging around and, if you’re lucky, enjoying a delicious brunch or two. You all know that I am absolutely obsessed with Mexican food and our local restaurant has the most amazing Al Pastor tacos. Seriously, I dream about them. Last time we were there, I just knew I had to make them at home too. But, instead of traditional tacos, I decided to make an al pastor breakfast hash instead…perfect for those weekend brunches!

Just last year I fell in love with beets. Before that, I just could not stomach them. Then, I had them roasted with goat cheese. From there, I was hooked and went on to discover how amazing they are with blue cheese! Right now, I am totally in love with trying different types of vegetable noodles and recently branched out to beet noodles with blue cheese sauce.

We are all about chips and dip in this house. My son is a huge guacamole fan and eats it all the time. We also love creamy dips. Right now, though, our favorite is this grapefruit avocado salsa that uses the best of spring produce to give it tons of flavor.

Spring is definitely here in our little corner of VA. It has dreaming of Easter and all the yummy spring goodies.
