Pumpkin pie smoothie recipe!
Despite the 90 degree temps, we're feelin' Fall in a major way. I also see 60 degree forecasts ahead so don't put those sweaters away just yet!
Last week I had the pleasure of collaborating with Chicago Parent in sharing our favorite pumpkin inspired recipe. There are SO many pumpkin recipes out there - it's enough to make your head spin and I truly prefer the less sugary, artificial taste that so many beverages leave you with. Yick! Instead, we create a new spin on our morning smoothie. I'd love to share it with you!
My sous chefs provided amazing support in this endeavor. I must acknowledge this. I present one of the easiest recipes you could make and your kiddos will love it. That's a promise.
Be sure to check out the full article for more pumpkin yumminess from some of my fellow lady friends here in Chicago!

Hi friends! I am testing out a new series after lamenting and crowd sourcing my struggle to deliver healthy, wholesome recipes to my family given our new back-to-school schedule. Yo girl is sick of tacos on Tuesdays and we have something every day of the week. I will be living in my car!
True to form, I surveyed my Instagram fam and you delivered. This recipe was shared by friend: alinochkarudman. Nom nom and enjoy!
Cold weather season is here! Last winter you loved my IGTV quick tutorial on Instagram so I am bringing it to the blog. Also, I can finally make this drink again because we had gorgeous weather all summer and hot drinks were not appealing!
The secret’s out: you can make your own delicious “no knead” bread at home using only 4 simple ingredients. Curious how to cook up this delicious dough? I first learned about this from my friend, Erica who got the recipe from A Pinch of Yum. Proof that there really is such a thing as social media influence.
The Shamrock Shake has once again made its annual appearance. And while this may be a favorite childhood treat for many, including myself, I went on a quest this year to find a healthier version. One that my entire family would love. Selfishly, this is also how I start my day so really, it's about killing two birds with one stone.
In an attempt to eat "healthier" this past Super Bowl Sunday, I found a recipe in, none other, but Blissful Basil's newest cookbook for a fresh take on sliders. The recipe does not exist online but I found a similar version to share with you today.
Greetings friends. Happy Monday! I'm all over the place with this blog content schedule but I digress. I spent quite a bit of time in the kitchen yesterday and wanted to share this bright, colorful dish as it takes 30 minutes to whip up and it's oh-so-healthy. I will be making this again and again. Not only did I feel full but I felt healthy.
Afternoon friends! How was your weekend? I flew in and out of Nashville for a social media speaking engagement with my partner for Oak St. Social. Whew! It was a whirlwind weekend but so much fun!
My husband purchased a new grill last month and it finally arrived over the weekend. First up on his list was to smoke a turkey breast. It was amazing but that's a post for a different day. I was charged with the sides which is truly my favorite chore of any meal.
Sorry for the profanity folks but that's the name of the recipe. I kid you not.
When my husband told me about this recipe I felt that sure...it's probably going to be a good sandwich. In all actuality: it's the best Fu*#$ng sandwich I've ever bit into.
