As if Black Bean soup isn’t already good enough, I added Kale and Mushrooms to push it over the top!! I started with a Black Bean soup recipe from allrecipes.com (link), and changed it up a bit. What I ended up with is below, and it’s been a huge hit with our friends and families so far! It’s a hearty soup that covers 4 of the 6 GBOMBS (Greens, Beans, Onions,…
We love Oatmeal for breakfast, especially when it’s loaded up with lots of fresh fruit. We used to add fruit at the table, to each of our bowls individually, until I tried adding fruit while the oatmeal is cooking… The result is AMAZING!! The flavor and natural sweetness from the fruit is absorbed into the oats as they cook, making every bite absolutely delicious! Prep time: 10 min Serves: 6…

I’ll be honest with you, I was a little nervous when Evan told me he wanted to have a healthy birthday cake at his birthday party this year. I was very proud of him for making that choice, but yes, nervous. We have made kids cry before with our healthy desserts. Multiple kids cry. Luckily they were part of our immediate family so they got over it quickly. But now…
Today I put apples on everything! They are so sweet they liven up everything. Tonight we made veggie pizza with apples and butternut squash soup with kale and apples. Yum!
