It's October and I am in full fall mode! That means all the baking, all the cardigans, and all the best weather! I was so excited when I saw someone mention that they replaced the pie crust in apple pie with cinnamon rolls. I am not a fan of traditional pie crust, so I knew … Continue reading Super Easy Cinnamon Roll Apple Pie
Today is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! To celebrate, I'm sharing my favorite recipe for one of the most popular flavors of cookie.

This rich, creamy casserole has all of the comfort of a casserole and bowl of alfredo with none of the guilt! Almost everyone in my family enjoyed it (and the one who didn't is our picky eater and was put off by the broccoli...but he still ate a small serving). I adapted my recipe below … Continue reading Low Carb Chicken Alfredo Casserole

Bananas and avocados man…they enjoy torturing me! … Continue reading Mealtime Mondays – January 20, 2020 – January 26, 2020
This week was honestly just a little bit hectic. My anxiety was messing with my sleep schedule, resulting in me feeling sluggish and having several awful headaches bordering on migraines.
