Happy New Year!

Hey there 2019! Hope everyone had an amazing Christmas and New Years! Have you set some New Year’s resolutions? I have and I must say, 2019, I’m comin’ for ya! I have so many awesome things planned for 2019, but first, how about some breakfast?

The Perfect Breakfast Treat

My mother-in-law, daughter and I made these Zucchini Chocolate Chip muffins over the Christmas break for breakfast, and we loved them! Even my husband and father-in-law loved these muffins! They are so good when they are still warm, fresh out of the oven, with a little pat of butter. These muffins are light, flaky and I love seeing the little flecks of green from the zucchini in them. Plus, a few chocolate chips are always a good idea!

Welcome to the world of Mashed Sweet Potatoes and Butternut Squash! My mother-in-law, Sandra, invented this recipe and really my only role in this recipe is to season it, taste it and season it again. So major kudos goes to Sandra! Thank you for letting me share this recipe!

Comfort Food in a Bowl

The weather is getting cooler which means it’s the perfect time for soup! And, when the weather is getting cooler that also means it’s the perfect time for people to have colds and to get other people sick! Yay! ….. Just kidding! But really, what is better than a big bowl of comforting chicken soup of a cool Fall night? I decided to put a little twist on the traditional chicken soup and add more of an Asian flavor profile and lots of superfood ingredients to fight off those pesky germs.
