Mac & Cheese for One

I was going to make this post a little more adult oriented, like, “Here’s an easy lunch when you don’t want a ton of leftovers!” BUT, my inner mama is about to show, haha! My 3-year-old daughter tends to wake up around 3 a.m. a few times a month because she has to go potty and is also “starving” as she puts it. I REALLY would like to give her a granola bar and send her back to bed so this mama can get some shut-eye BUT somehow I was gifted with a quite bougie child so she wants something hot and homemade.

15 Quesadilla Recipes You Have to Try!

Back to school is right around the corner and my kitchen is full of veggies from the garden still. On hot late summer nights like this, one of the family favorite go-to dinners are quesadillas. They are quick, delicious, and don’t heat up the kitchen. Quesadillas are also easy to customize for each family member. If one doesn’t like onion and the next doesn’t want peppers changes are a snap. I love serving them with sour cream and homemade Pico de Gallo. These are 15 quesadilla recipes you have to try!

These quesadillas are also great for those busy school night. We are always rushing around with sports getting back in full swing and music practices.

These homemade nachos just might become your new best friend but be sure to share them with the ones you love! These homemade nachos just might become your new best friend but be sure to share them with the ones you love! It was one of those hot summer days when you consider moving to Canada. I know it gets hot in Canada as my northern friends tell me but this is a level of hot that can only be achieved in the deep south. I mean cook an egg on the sidewalk hot. I thought I was going to melt away anytime I had to go outside. Forget getting the mail, it can sit in the mailbox all day until the sun goes down. And trying to accomplish anything with your hair is just an exercise in futility.
