Instant Pot Cranberry French Toast

November 26, 2019 By Admin 5 Comments

Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Do you have plans? My son and I are spending the holiday together. After talking to a great friend, I explained to her that I was thinking of ordering a “pre-made holiday meal” from a local grocery store. She convinced me that I should do it! So, I ordered a vegan Thanksgiving meal that feeds two people. There is so much food included and with my son being such a picky eater, I know there will be plenty of leftover food for at least a week! Since I have an Instant Pot, I love making delicious meals and such for us. I recently made Instant Pot Cranberry French Toast and it was a hit! This makes an awesome breakfast, especially with those cranberries you may on hand!

If you already have an Instant Pot, what are your favorite recipes? My son loves pasta, so I like to make him spaghetti! I know there are so many recipes out there to try! In the past, I’ve tried Quinoa Fried Rice a few times. It was pretty good.

Cherry Almond Muffins

I remember growing up my grandmother had a cherry tree in her backyard and she always had extra cherries in the Spring and Summer to share with us when we visited. Now that I am getting settled in our own place, I am trying new recipes for my son and myself. My son loves muffins and instead of buying muffins at the store, I wanted to start baking again. We recently made a batch of Cherry Almond Muffins and they barely lasted a week!

I love adding fruit and granola whenever I can. I like the added crunch! I recently made Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt and so excited to share!

Were you a Girl Scout? Do you have daughters who are Girl Scouts? I believe I joined a local Girl Scout troop that my next door neighbor’s mom ran. Our troop was small, but we had so much fun. Before that, I was in the Girl Scout Brownies. I remember doing so many activities.

Hand Cream That Hydrates For Cold Weather

March 7, 2019 By Katharine Leave a Comment

I’ve always been a warm weather type of person. Sunshine and warmth speak to my soul. However, for most of my life, I’ve lived in a very cold state. The winters in Michigan can be brutal! This winter, we’ve had a state-wide winter emergency due to the cold and snow. Our local school district has had over six snow days so far! Ugh, I’m so over this cold and heaps of snow. I’m freezing and always needing to slather on loads of hand cream…. [read more]
