 It has been 2 years since I have posted. I want this blog to be a place I can share health and wellness information along with recipes and tidbits from my life! as a mother of a 15 year old boy and a 12 year old girl and wife that just celebrated her 20 year anniversary with the love of my life. I love cooking and I am always trying new recipes for my family. Nutrition advice is plentiful every where you look, and seemingly ever changing. I will share what is working for us and hopefully inspire you to get in the kitchen with your loved ones...cook and enjoy your food with the people you love!

Kale Chips

Homemade Kale Chips Try these @ home they are a fun finger food, that is a healthy snack for the entire family. INGREDIENTS 1 bunch of kale, washed and dried thoroughly olive oil, for drizzling sea salt, for sprinkling DIRECTIONS Preheat the oven to 275 degrees Remove the ribs from the kale and cut into chip size pieces. Lay on a baking sheet, make sure to not crowd, I used 2 rimmed baking sheets.  Toss the kale with the olive oil and salt, I found this easier to use your hands to toss the kale to make sure each leaf was coated evenly. Bake until crisp, turning the leaves halfway through, about 20 minutes. Serve as finger food. Let me know how your family likes this one!!

Grammy's Old World Turkey Casserole

This is my Mother in laws recipe for turkey and cabbage casserole. She makes it with instant white rice, and cambells condensed tomato soup. You could defiantly make this healthier by using brown rice and your own tomato sauce topping, for our family we make it just like Grammy does. Ingredients 1 lb. ground turkey 1 Cup instant rice 1 small head of cabbage, chopped 1 can instant  cambells tomato soup 1 medium onion, chopped Directions Brown the turkey and chopped onions, adding salt and pepper to taste. Once the turkey and onions are done cooking remove from the heat and stir in the instant rice. In a large casserole add chopped cabbage to the bottom, then place the turkey and rice mixture, top with the can of soup, spreading it on top of the entire casserole, finally add a can of water. Bake uncovered @350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
