Almond Butter Muffins {Freezer meal}

Hangry toddlers are the worst.

Okay, so are hangry husbands… and sisters, and… well, I’m sure teens and tweens aren’t much better. But as of this point in my life, most of my day to day experience is dealing with the toddler and husband situation.

Which is why it’s not just nice but critical to have quick, easy, healthy, filling, and satisfying meals and snacks on hand. And these banana almond butter muffins deliver in all of those areas.

Black Bean and Cauliflower Rice

Black Bean and Cauliflower Rice

Let’s be honest- most of us could do with eating more veggies. So I’m always either on the hunt or testing out my own veggie dish.

The first time I made this we were eating this for LEFTOVERS and I commented about how good the cauliflower turned out and my husband was like, what cauliflower? Oh, you shouldn’t have told me.

Yes, it’s that good. And BONUS it’s super fast and easy to throw together any day of the week.

Easy Cinco de Mayo Fiesta

Easy Cinco de Mayo Fiesta

Remember how I started talking about Cinco de Mayo over a month ago?  Guess what… it’s here!!!

If you’ve been with me for any length of time you’ve probably figured out that I love food. I love ethnic food of all sorts, but there is a soft spot in my heart for Mexican, Tex-Mex, and Americanized Mexican food. Maybe it’s because it’s super delicious and has the opportunity to be spicy (which I love), or maybe because it’s super easy to make.

Probably both.

However, with Cinco de Mayo coming up this weekend, I wanted to keep it short and sweet this Thursday with a wrap up of some of my favorite tasty yet easy to make Fiesta-ish foods!
