Favorite Meat Marinade

I call this our "meat marinade"  because it's delicious with chicken or steak.  One way to add lots of flavor and create juicy tender meat is by marinading.  This recipe is a combination of flavors that we love-  You can customize the herbs to match your taste.

Smokey Sweet Chili

This is a smokey sweet vegetarian chili- hence the name.  I love throwing this in the crock pot without dirtying too many dishes!

Homemade Play Dough

There are not too many things more satisfying for a toddler to smash a perfectly round ball of dough  between his or her hands.

Healthy Protein Cookies

This is our favorite way to get an extra punch of protein! With a mix of oats, peanut butter (or soy butter), flaxseeds, sunflower seeds, and cranberries they are a healthy way to satisfy any sweet tooth!

Minted Chex Mix

We celebrated St. Patrick's Day with everything green!  Lucky for us the Leprechauns left behind some of their special mint mix!  They know our family so well that they even added some of our favorite Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies!
