Introducing Ollie to food has been the most exciting adventure. She is a great eater and we love constantly getting to try new things. She loves finger foods and the independence they give her. I also love finger foods because of the independence they give her. That being said, Ollie has been dubbed the “Queen… Continue reading Pancakes: 7 Ways

Tomato, Basil, and Mozzarella Quinoa Salad

April 7, 2017April 6, 2017 paxtoncavinLeave a comment

While being home with Ollie I have noticed that what I eat for lunch is directly related to my mood in the afternoon.

This was one of the main reasons… Continue reading Tomato, Basil, and Mozzarella Quinoa Salad

This dish was inspired by an impromptu trip to Outback Steakhouse. They have a similar dish on their menu, we tried it, loved it, and then decided to try to recreate it at home.

Lasagna

March 25, 2015March 1, 2015 paxtoncavinLeave a comment

Lasagna is delicious. Yes, it is a bit of work to put together, but it is worth it in the end. My obstacle in making lasagna is that C.J. does not care for ricotta or cottage cheese and he doesn’t like a ton of sauce on his foods. I finally decided to try to tackle… Continue reading Lasagna

This meal is simple and delicious. It is as close to Tex-Mex or Mexican food that I can make for… Continue reading Porcupines in the Skillet

Goulash

January 30, 2015January 25, 2015 paxtoncavin1 Comment

  Growing up we ate goulash probably once every two weeks or so. My dad really enjoyed it, it was something that my mom could make a lot of (leftovers!), and it is super easy. This recipe is a tad bit different from the goulash I ate growing up, but the main ingredients are all… Continue reading Goulash
