Nothing makes me happier than spending time with my kids in the kitchen. I love to help encourage their skill in the kitchen. Along with teaching them the value of cooking/baking for themselves.
It never fails whenever we hang out in the kitchen that laughter follows. Usually behind a huge mess. But hey, not a big deal.

While everyone else is running around yelling pumpkin spice this or that, I'm over here screaming give me the apples.
One of my favorite fall treats to make is Apple Crisps or Apple Crumble.

Do you know that you need some healthy fats in your diet?

I love it when my kids ask me to make something in particular for dinner.
The stress of making dinner decisions every night is beyond frustrating.
My oldest daughter requested this Chicken and sweet potatoes dish that I make. Well with the great quarantine of 2020 I didn't have any chicken. So I decided to mix things up a bit and use a steak.
They love this recipe just as much.

Since everyone will home with me for eternity, ok maybe not that long, we are having to up our snack game.
We eat a decent amount of fruit. One because it is easy but two I try to limit the process foods. So I figured this would be a nice treat for them. Plus it may help keep them full longer than 5 minutes. Can I get an Amen?
As an added bonus, preparing the dip did take about 10 minutes of our day.
Here is what you can for.
Citrus Fruit Dip
Ingredients:
4 OZ Cream Cheese --Philadelphia Cream Cheese is the best, no substitutions.
4-6 OZ Container Vanilla Yogurt
A dash of Pure Vanilla Extract
2 Tablespoons of Pure Honey
2 drops of Orange Vitality
Combine all the ingredients into a bowl and mix together using your hand mixer. Beat until smooth. Serve with fruit or graham crackers.
