About Me




 






I love to Cook!  It's strange because my love for food was something I developed as an adult.  As a child food and I were mortal enemies.  I was very picky and took hours to eat.  Food options at home were very singular.  My parents cooked rice 6 days a week and it was usually accompanied by chicken or pork and occasionally steak that my mom boiled (yuck).  On the off chance that we didn't have rice we were limited to pasta with beef (which became my favorite).  My brothers and I also ate a lot of junk.  We were pretty poor and our parents didn't really know what being healthy was. 

Since becoming a mom I try to place emphasis on healthy eating... but... It's hard.  I work full time and all three of my children play sports year round.  We are always on the run!  For anyone who knows me I have somewhat of a more hate than love relationship with processed foods.  I refuse to buy a bunch of frozen or pre-made foods for the kids and eating out is both expensive and not healthy. 

So after much convincing from family and friends I am going to try a hand at posting some homemade and semi-homemade breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas for the working mom who is on the run.  Most of these are ready to eat in under 20 minutes.  Let me know what you think!
