SUNDAY Current situation: Poolside with a glass of white wine discussing takeout options. It’s been a perfect Mother’s Day. We had a big Mexican lunch and the last thing I can think about is dinner. If you’re cooking at home, I’d suggest something simple like steaks or tri tip on the grill, grilled asparagus and…

Weekly Meal Plan // Week 18
We are entering our last couple weeks of school and my crew is crawling to the finish line. They’re tired, burned out and a tiny bit grumpy. Summer can’t get here fast enough. These next couple weeks a meal plan will help us stay in our routine until the school year is over. It will…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 17
Oh, brother. It’s 9am on a Monday and I’m starting the week behind. Working furiously to get my meal plan up and attacking a pile of paperwork that has accumulated over the past two weeks. Our first Farm Girls Supper Club Saturday night was magical, with perfect weather, a full moon and delicious, seasonal food….
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 16
Let’s make this a quick one! Our dinner is in the oven and I’m quickly mapping out the week ahead. One of my kiddos is throwing a ball in the front yard, one is coming home from a softball scrimmage (and will surely be “starving”) and the oldest is sitting across from me on the…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 15
Two weeks until the first Farm Girls Supper Club and I need to make room for “all the things.” That’s why we are purging our fridge big time. Not only will it make room for recipe testing and tweaking, it will makes me feel good to use what we have. Waste not, want not. We are…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 14
SUNDAY Skinnytaste Sloppy Joe’s. This is my favorite homemade sloppy joe recipe, and it’s relatively fast. Perfect for a cold and cozy Sunday. If you don’t want it on a bun, serve it with cauliflower rice or over sautéd spinach. We’re serving ours with a big salad on the side dressed with my super simple…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 13
A Super Easy (and mostly healthy) Weekly Meal Plan We’re rolling into April and that time of year that always feels the most frenetic to me. As I’ve said before, it’s like riding a bicycle downhill with no handlebars. We have a few April birthdays in our family, and weekends are filled with an Earth…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 12
MONDAY Miso soup is super fast and fits the “meatless” theme of the day. For extra veggies, add baby spinach or thinly sliced bok choy. You could also add sliced mushrooms, although I can’t get away with that in my house. Use sprouted organic tofu cut in small cubes. I’ll also make a pot of…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 12
Spring is on its way, and these last months of the school year will fly by. We are in the midst of wrapping up summer plans and it has me thinking about summer shorts, white jeans and swimsuits. Goodbye corned beef, hello kale. SUNDAY We’re still technically on spring break, and today is a travel…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 11
SPRING BREAK SKI MEALS We’re rolling into spring break, so I want an easy weeknight meal plan that will feed a hungry crew of skiers. I need easy prep, big batch meals that will satisfy a crowd. We’ll have five kids with us, so I’m planning approachable people-pleaser dinners with a heavy dose of carb!…
