Green Chile Pumpkin Soup Recipe

September 12, 2018 By Shannah Coe 7 Comments

This green chile pumpkin soup recipe combines the slightly smokey flavor of a green chile with a creamy pumpkin soup for the perfect fall comfort food. Create this pumpkin soup with canned pumpkin for a simple recipe that is ready super quickly.

I usually don’t get excited about pumpkin until October but, with all the rain and cold weather we have had, I am totally craving a creamy pumpkin soup. I love the subtle flavors green chiles add to a standard pumpkin soup recipe making it totally irresistable.

Creamy Baked Avocado Pasta

October 21, 2014 By Shannah Coe 13 Comments

I am so excited to be partnering with Hass Avocado to share with you my new found love of avocados and all the health benefits they offer. As always, even though this post was compensated, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

As a kid, I ran away from anything that had avocado in it. It was one of those ridiculous situations where I had never really tried an avocado but was convinced I didn’t like it. Thankfully, as an adult, I became a little wiser and fell in love with avocados. I eat them on toast, in salads and, of course, in guacamole. I have also started cooking with avocados more and it all started with this creamy baked avocado pasta.

Margarita Chicken Rice Bowl

October 8, 2014 By Shannah Coe 3 Comments

I am so excited to continue my work with Success® Rice by sharing this recipe with you that has become a family favorite of ours. As always, while I was compensated for this post, all opinions and thoughts are my own.

We are big Tex-Mex and Mexican food fans. From burritos to quesadillas, we love the flavors of lime, cilantro combined with a hint of spice. One of my favorite things to get when we go places like Chipotle is a rice bowl. I was at home one evening and really craving one so I decided to make my own version. This margarita chicken rice bowl is so easy to make and ridiculously delicious too. You may never go to Chipotle again because you’ve got something even better that you make at home!

Garlic and Herb Pork Kabobs

September 17, 2014 By Shannah Coe 11 Comments

We are coming down to the last days of the regular grilling season and I am trying to squeeze in every chance to grill that I can. Of couse, my available cooking time is almost nonexistent right now so I need things that can cook fast and don’t require a lot of marinade time or prep work. That is one of the reasons I love the Smithfield marinated pork products…they do all the work for you. I recently picked up one of the garlic and herb tenderloins and brought it home to grill for dinner.

Slow Cooker Cuban Beef

September 9, 2014 By Shannah Coe 4 Comments

Grab your Crockpot and get ready to make the MOST amazing recipe ever. This Slow Cooker Cuban Beef is so delicious, easy to make and full of flavor!

I have such a love affair with my Crockpot. Once the weather starts to cool a little bit and I move away from grilling everything from burgers to fruit, I start using my slow cooker more and more. Mathlete isn’t always a huge fan of chicken cooked in the crockpot so I tend to stick to beef more often.

Sloppy Joe Casserole

August 14, 2014 By Shannah Coe 16 Comments

I am always looking for new products to use when my gluten free or vegetarian friends and family visit for meals. I am excited to share my newest find, that I used in our favorite recipe for sloppy joe casserole, with you today. Even though I was compensated for this post, all thoughts and opinions expressed here are 100% my own.

With fall and back to school fast approaching, I am starting to build a great list of go to recipes that easy to make and taste great too. My sister in law was visit recently and she is vegetarian. I thought she might be joining us for dinner one night so I did a little research on what I could make that my family of meat eaters would love and she could enjoy too. That was when I was introduced to #BeyondMeat. BeyondMeat is a meat substitute that takes all of the familiar things in meat {amino acids, fats, trace carbohydrates, minerals and lots of water} from plants and applies heating, cooling and pressure so that the result is just like meat. I used the BeyondMeat to make a delicious sloppy joe casserole and everyone LOVED it.

School is back in session here and so we’ve added homework and a few other activities into our mix. Doing lots of dishes and making meals that require a lot of work are totally out of the picture. I am loving one pot meals more and more right now as we try to squeeze every extra moment of time outside in possible before the weather turns cold. I shared this sweet potato and turkey one pot recipe awhile back over at Mom 4 Real and I wanted to share it with you here too.
