Dinner is done!
A Week of Simple Meals We are moving into Farm Girls Supper Club week, which means I’ll be shopping, prepping and cooking half the menu for 90 attendees. If you’re the praying sort, I wouldn’t mind a shout out. This dinner is a labor of love. The best way I can describe it: It’s like…
An Easy Weekly Plan Your Whole Family Will Love! SUNDAY We’re grilling rib-eyes and bell peppers and serving everything up with chimichurri. I have all the ingredients to make this shortcut caesar salad with kale instead of romaine. MONDAY It’s my night to take dinner for my daughter’s YoungLife leaders. A big pot of weeknight…
A Super Easy Weekly Meal Plan It’s one of those weeks! Between Sunday and Friday, I have five cooking classes, a photo shoot, three blog posts to write, multiple recipes to edit and a pop-up dinner for 100 to finalize. So many of you have the same schedule in a different capacity. I just ran…

An Easy, No-Oven Weekly Meal Plan Back-to-school season means back-to-routine season. Healthy dinners at home are the first place to start. And an easy weekly meal plan is just what I need to tackle the schedule of dentist appointments, ortho appointments, haircuts and errands we have on deck. My kids won’t be allowed back to…
Why I Don’t Meal Plan During Summer Break Routine is good, and so is a break from routine. Summer cooking means cooking from the farmer’s market, grilling outdoors, making big snack platters that “count” as dinner, and generally just relaxing and enjoying a looser schedule. During the school year, our schedule is like a military…
