This recipe was a hit, and by a “hit” I mean 4.5 out of 5 people in my house loved this for dinner. My husband, who doesn’t even like traditional Alfredo sauce, even asked for seconds! So why the “.5”? Well, my 8-year old son is touch and go on pasta in general and the thick and flat fettuccine noodles were not his favourite. For him, I picked out chunks of chicken and broccoli and he happily ate his pasta-free bowl.
Many of us are trying to eat a little healthier these days and are looking for ways to fill our plates with the foods we love, while making a few substitutions to keep us on track with our healthy eating goals. Over the last year or so, spaghetti squash has become a well-established substitute for pasta.
My whole family loves Mexican food. Whether it’s tacos, nachos, burritos, Mexican has always been a fave. Now, thanks to these fun, new Kraft Dinner Macaroni and Cheese options we can add my Fiesta Mac and Cheese recipe to the list!
Are you guilty of changing the names of meal items in order to get your kids to eat their dinner? I know I am. Homemade Macaroni and Cheese becomes “cheesy pasta” and parmesan cheese becomes “shakey-shake” (because you get to shake it!) and then of course there are these Minecraft Pork Chops.
Lasagna is a staple recipe in any kitchen. Whether you're looking for a crowd pleasing family-friendly meal everyone will enjoy, an addition to your freezer meal repertoire or something to take to a friend when they need it the most, lasagna is almost always the answer.
I have a confession to make — between the over 5,000km of driving we did through Yukon and Alaska and attending BlissdomCanada I haven't cooked (even the Canned Soup Mom version of cooking) in at least 20 days.
The first time I made this for my husband was the summer between my third and fourth year of University. We had reconnected after three years of pre-facebook-era no contact and after a week of talking for hours on the phone he was finally driving the two hours to visit me. So I did what any 20-year-old would do—I went to the market and picked up the ingredients to have a homemade dinner waiting for him. Weird—I know—but 100% the truth.
