dinner in 15

Hey everyone, so normally if I'm posting a recipe its healthy but this isn't, haha. I'm posting it because its quick and it has been dubbed "delicious" by my husband. my toddler tolerated and that was my main motivator in posting because she is picky picky. 

while the water comes to boil for the pasta i cooked the sausage. my lazy pant method of sausage meatballs is to pinch off meatballish sized pieces and drop them in the pan. i let them brown up, flip'em and cover them with a lid. 

once the pasta is done, drain liquid, then add the tomatoes, and cheese sauce, plus seasoning, top with meatballs..boom, dinner, 15 minutes. 

the seasoning i used is what i always use...goya, fajita, and black pepper. 

serve with a salad (that my husband cut so I'm not adding that in the time)

Throw together - chili-ish soup

This was a throw together that won big with the mr and the babe. I threw everything in the picture in a pot and called it dinner. The freezer bag is a pack of previously cooked hamburger meat. I usually will buy 3-5 pounds and cook it all with my staple seasoning and then divide and freeze it.
This made enough that i froze half. With a little one running around controlling pretty much everything, its nice to have something healthy to just grab and throw in the microwave.

Happy father's day

I put together a basket of chocolate for my sweet dad and my father in law.  When it comes to men, I try to keep it simple and stick to something I know they like.

Microwave Poached Eggs

This may sound crazy but I cooked myself up some poach eggs with a microwave. 

Into a microwave safe mug/bowl I poured in enough water to cover the bottom, added about a teaspoon/tablespoon of vinegar (really depends on how much water you use), and, of course, sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. 

Heat it until the eggs are cooked, duh right? Well, I can't give a time because microwaves are so different. Ours is kind of super powered so it took 1:15 (soft yolk, cooked whites) which is awesome because I was so hungry and didn't have the patience to pull out a pan and actually cook the eggs. 

Drain the excess water. Maybe toast your bread and melt on some cheese:) with more cracked pepper. ... I also added mustard which I find so delicious on an egg sandwich. 

A bit messy for a sandwich but that's why I have forks, dig in.

Christmas Treats

Bad photos of some super tasty Christmas treats. 

First up some cupcakes that were baked in our new toaster oven:) 

This lame attempt at a gingerbread house kept us busy while the weather had us inside, the end result wouldn't win any beauty contest but it sure was finger licking fun to make.

Christmas Brunch Recipe

Merry Christmas! Hope y'all had a blessed day with your families. We kicked off the birth of Christ celebration with an easy breakfast casserole...made so cute with a gingerbread man pan. 

Recipe - give or take

7 farm fresh eggs

1 1/2 cup stuffing mix

1 teaspoon cinnamon 

2 tablespoon organic honey

Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper

Goat cheese crumble for topping 

In the gingerbread pan I added first the eggs. I used 6 egg whites and 1 full egg, with yolk. To that I added the cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Then, give that a quick mix. Break the yolk, but don't fully mix it in. Add the breadcrumbs. Pour the honey over the breadcrumbs then toss that all together so the bread gets coated with the mixture. 

Cook times may vary

We are rolling with tiny house kitchen so we have a toaster oven. I used 450 degrees on bake for 15 minutes and it was perfect. This dish is fragrant so when it's smell starts to tickle your nose, it's ready.  To take your taste buds to the next level, top with goat cheese crumble and a drizzle of organic honey. 

No actual gingerbread men were injuried in the making of this post. Photo blood is actually Frank's Red Hot :)
