Apple Curry Chicken Crockpot
About time I cooked something in the crockpot to share with you guys!

Bacon Guacamole
At my household we eat guacamole like it’s going out of style, having it two to three times a week.

Roasted Rosemary Sweet Potatoes
Rosemary. What a lovely little piece of heaven. It’s one of my favorite herbs. Did you know that in Latin “Rosemary” means the “dew of the sea”?

I knew rosemary was romantic.… Continue reading Roasted Rosemary Sweet Potatoes

Banana Nutella Popsicles
For no particular reason, I have been making a lot of different types of nut butters lately! I feel like my refrigerator has become a nut-butter jar collector. Probably housing seven different nut-butter jars. No joke; it’s straight up crazy. That’s a lot for our family of two, especially since my husband solely consumes a… Continue reading Banana Nutella Popsicles
