Month of November FOCUS
Stuffed Dates with Goat Cheese
Dates are my secret weapon when I am craving something sweet. I pop in one or two and my sweet tooth is satisfied. I will use one or two to sweeten up a smoothie. I have used them in place of sugar in pancakes and desserts. They are a great base for homemade protein bars….
Honey Salmon In Foil
This is a very simple meal to make and it comes out perfect every time I have baked it. I personally get nervous with fish because I am not sure how to cook them but this is flavorful and flakes so nicely. My husband does not like salmon but loves this dish! So that is…
Ginger Shrimp Stir-fry
Thursdays are our throwback day using leftovers from the week. I find all the vegetables that need to be used and pair them up with a protein. My favorite is frozen shrimp. Super easy to thaw under running water and cook quickly for a fast delicious meal! I tripled this recipe for my family but…
Homemade Taco Seasoning
I can whip up a big batch of this in a few minutes and it lasts me for a couple of months. I use a mason jar with a lid. I even taped the ingredients on the outside, so I didn’t have to look them up when I need to make a new batch. …
Taco Chili

Chicken Noodle Soup
This is a family favorite! I found it at LocalFoods.com. I always make a double batch each time I make it because it goes fast! It might look like it takes a long time to make, but really it is mostly simmering time, so you can be doing other things in the house. The flavor…
Homemade Pizza Sauce
This homemade pizza sauce is super easy to throw together while your homemade pizza dough is rising. Our family’s favorite homemade pizza dough is right HERE! You will need 30 minutes for the sauce to sit and get super flavorful. I often double this recipe and freeze the extra for future pizza nights. It thaws…
Homemade Pizza Dough
Friday Pizza Night!! It is super easy to call up and have a pizza delivered but nothing tastes as good as homemade pizza dough with the love you put into creating your very own pizza with your family! The dough takes about an hour to make, so I make sure to make it earlier for…
Grilled Teriyaki Chicken
This is my husbands FAVORITE meal!! When he has been away for work, this is his going away meal and his welcoming home meal. He likes to have my homemade macaroni and cheese along with it. It is important to prepare ahead of time with this dish, because you want the chicken to have time…
