This post is brought to you by Bush’s Beans – and my gaggle of hungry kids home for the summer Oh my gosh – my kids have been home for the summer exactly one week and they have become the most demanding little creatures. For some reason, they keep saying I’m supposed to feed them [...]

Mushroom Love {Recipe: Mushroom & White Bean Tostada}
There are two foods in this world that could convince me to become a vegetarian: mushrooms and beans. I love both and every time I taste a dish featuring either of these ingredients, I seriously consider giving up my carnivore ways. The first time I had mushrooms and white beans combined was when I tasted [...]
Simplify Mealtime {Recipe: Oven Roast Turkey Breast}
This week started right on track, and I love it. I was able to sit down on Sunday afternoon and create a simple menu plan for our family meals. I made a list and went shopping and have truly appreciated how much time and money has been saved simply because I planned. I know that [...]
Almost There {Recipe: One Pot Sausage and Bush’s Beans Ragout}
My goal was to have a brand spanking new Dine & Dish to show you this week, but it’s not happening quite yet. Soon…very soon. I told myself I wasn’t going to post again until the new design was live, but I can’t do that to you! I can’t keep this delicious, comforting, one pot [...]

Hass Avocado Recipe Contest {Recipe: Beef Tostadas}

Avocado’s are one of those things that just seem to “ooomph” up an ordinary recipe, don’t you agree? A chicken sandwich sounds much more appealing when you [...]
The Gift of Time {Recipe: Lemon Pepper Shrimp Over Pasta}
I’ve been thinking a lot about time lately… lack of it, its speed and the meaning behind it. We have 4 weeks of summer remaining. I should be looking forward to those four weeks, anticipating the fun that we can have together, but instead I’ve been looking back, full of regret for the things we [...]
