On Tuesday, when the boxes arrived, I decided to bake the sweet potatoes that were in the box because they take quite some time to cook. And, by baking them, I retained all of the nutrients that would have been boiled away in the traditional method used for mashed sweet…
Today is another day that is full of good things. Some of those good things have us on the road a bit, so dinner must be prepped ahead of time so it can be put on the table shortly after we arrive home at 7:00 pm. I am willing to…
Salads for dinner are our favorite on hot nights. Last night happened to be one of those so it was surely salad time! Sprouts also had Organic, Grass Fed Ground Beef on sale for $3.99 a pound so I had some in my freezer. That is quite a deal! Using…
Last night I did it again. I was cooking dinner and I spied the peppers in my refrigerator that I bought at Lombardi Ranch. They were on the medium size and looked a bit like Jalapenos (not pictured here). Since they were larger, I falsely assumed that they wouldn’t be…

My husband named this meal. He took a bite and said it tasted like “Octoberfest”…of course, silly me, since it is October first today, I had a little fun with that. This is the meal that came from the prepped ingredients from this morning. Here is the list: 4 Chicken…
The day has come to cook the butternut squash from our trip to Lombardi Ranch. Butternut is one of my favorite squash, but I must admit, I see it sitting there and imagine how much time it will take to prepare it. I exaggerate the amount of time it will…
Tonight I am on a mission to use the rest of the kale and the remaining peppers. So, we will be having a meal with some really great chicken sausage (my daughter asked if she could have a bowl as a snack!) and at a variety of other ingredients, most…
