Helping Busy Moms Take Back Their Lives!
It’s not like you expected homemaking to be a piece of cake. But you had no idea you’d be so tired, frustrated, and overwhelmed, right? I’ve often felt the same way. When I first became a wife and mom years ago, I needed GPS to find my way around the kitchen. Oh, and developing systems to efficiently handle laundry and cleaning? Um… do I have to answer that? Homemaking is
I’ve been using Freezer to Slow Cooker meals for years now. I have found that there are some that I repeat over and over again because they’re just too good not to. We would miss them too much if we never had them again! If you’re looking for some new ideas, be sure to check out the following delicious slow cooker recipes!

I had heard about the Instant Pot Pressure Cooker craze, last year, but I finally got an Instant Pot of my own for my birthday, in September. I was so excited and a little overwhelmed! (this post contains affiliate links) Now that I’ve had time to try it out for several months, I feel like I have the knowledge to tell you all about it and write
Last week, I had a craving. I wanted lasagna, but I wanted soup. Haha, I’m kind of indecisive like that! So instead of making a decision on that menu, I decided to figure out a way to combine the two. The answer was chicken lasagna soup! I wasn’t sure how it would turn out, but it was actually pretty good. My only complaint was that I didn’t let the
This week, in honor of my Spring Time Freezer to Slow Cooker Sale, I’ve decided to give away a Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Meal Plan! Just for you, no strings attached! You don’t have to sign up for an email list or anything. You don’t have to buy anything. You just get it for free! How does that sound? In this menu you will find the following
So, I bet some of you are wondering…. what is Zuppa Toscana soup? It’s such a strange name, obviously not from the American language. Personally, I was introduced to Zuppa Toscana soup at The Olive Garden. It is such an amazing tasting soup, I decided to come home and figure out just how to make it, so we can eat it more often. On this particular day, my family ate
You all know how much I like Mexican food, right? OK, well maybe you don’t, but I want to assure you that it is a regularly eaten food at our house. In addition to loving Mexican food, I also really like to cook with ground beef. Why? Because it’s one of the least expensive meats to cook with. In order to save money on my overall grocery bill, I often find
The other night, I was digging around in my deep freezer and found that I had several packages of cubed steak that I’ve never done anything with. I brought them in, knowing I could figure something out to cook for dinner that night. I let them thaw out on the counter and decided that I would give the ole Instant Pot a run for the evening’s dinner. (I’m sure I’ve never told you

It seems like I’ve been in the mood for soups lately. Tasty, delicious soups! Tomato Basil Chicken Stew this week! I’d say it’s because of all the cold weather out there, but it’s actually been unseasonably warm here. (It was 70 degrees today, in February!) There’s just something about smelling a soup simmering in my slow cooker all day that makes me happy! The smells waft through the
I’m so excited to share this tomato basil soup recipe with you! It’s actually chock full of chopped vegetables. We like having some chunks in our soup, so I left the delicious soft vegetables alone in chunks within my soup. If you prefer to have a smoother tomato soup, feel free to blend the veggies up with an immersion blender while it’s still in the pot. When deciding if I really wanted
My husband bought me an Instant Pot Pressure Cooker for my birthday this past year and I have been having a ball using it! Of course, I needed some more Instant Pot Recipes, so I decided this list was definitely in order!
