This Cheesy Rice and Veggie Bake includes broccoli, onions, mushrooms and celery, baked with rice, creamy mushroom soup and cheese for a simple, healthy weeknight dinner. Use leftover Cream of Mushroom Soup from last night’s dinner and save time as well as feel good about a healthy…
Homemade Tomato Basil Bisque
If it was up to Anna, we would have Homemade Tomato Basil Bisque for dinner every night. She just loves this creamy tomato soup! I created this in an effort to duplicate one of my childhood favorites, Campbell’s tomato soup. This is my healthier, chunkier version. Hope you like it as much as I (and…
Manicotti
Today’s addition to Kids in the Kitchen is Toby’s Manicotti. It is Italian goodness at its best! Toby learned the base that makes lasagna and other Italian favorites so popular- ricotta, mozzarella, parsley, eggs and Parmesan. Mmmmm! He’ll make a great husband some day! Manicotti is as easy as it is delicious and Toby shows…
Veggie Soft Tacos
I have wonderful high school memories of sitting in a booth at Chili’s and spending time with my BFF’s. We used to freqent Chili’s….our favorite spot! My order was always Veggie Soft Tacos and a chocolate shake. The tacos were super simple, just a few veggies and a little ranch dressing! I’m changing it up…
Cheesy Enchilada Crepes
When I created this dinner, I was in the mood for saucy, Mexican flavors. But I also wanted the light, creamy, cheesiness you get in lasagna from cottage cheese (or ricotta.) I decided crepes would be the perfect avenue for these flavor combinations to meet. With the light, fluffy texture of the crepes, the creaminess…
Pea and Parsley Pesto Linguine
This dinner was so fresh and light tasting! I froze the extra pesto in ice cube trays so next time I need a meal I can pop a couple pesto cubes into some pasta! This pea and parsley pesto is amazing and it tasted just right with the wide linguine noodles. I found this delicious…
Mexican Mac ‘n Cheese

Coconut Crusted Mahi Mahi Bites
I love the challenge of taking a healthy item and making it taste better, especially when it’s something my kids (or me) wouldn’t eat otherwise. Like fish! Believe me, I wish I liked fish, but I never have. Why do I wish I liked it? It’s good for you and fish restaurants always seem so…
Creamy Tomato and Red Pepper Soup
It’s a drizzly day here in Colorado…which makes for perfect soup weather! When I have red peppers I need to use, I usually make a roasted red pepper sweet potato soup that is out of this world! On this occasion I had no potatoes. So, I came up with a creamy tomato, red pepper version….
Veggie burgers
I love a great burger! I tend to order burgers at restaurants and eat plenty of meat in general, so during the week I try to balance our diet with some meatless options. Even though I try to be healthy by balancing my choices, I am not good about eating things that TASTE extra healthy,…
