They sounded weird but man these Hungryroot Ancient Grains Pancakes are delicious. I love them just as much as regular pancakes. They were voted “not as good” by hubby, but he still ate them seemingly happily. They got two “yummy yummy” from the almost two-year-old, which is high praise. They are as simple to make as a regular pancake mix. Use special code IB7QY8UM to get $40 off Hungryroot, a personalized grocery service that makes it easy to shop for, cook, and love healthy food.

These oven ready meals are sooooo convenient. We typically don’t even use the oven, we microwave them. You microwave the pasta and then mix it in with the baby spinach and boom, dinner is served. I served Grant blueberry yogurt … Continue reading Sunbasket Creamy Mushroom Penne with Baby Spinach and Almonds
We’ve been doing Sunbasket since before the pandemic started. We like to pick the oven-ready or speedy meals for quick, easy meals. The regular ones are too much cooking for my taste and time (similar to Hello Fresh). Most of … Continue reading Sunbasket Rainbow Quinoa Black Bean Tacos
Last night’s dinner was a little bit of leftovers, a household staple, and a vegetable. My husband told me he was making steak, which meant I had to come up with dinner. If left to his own devices hubby would … Continue reading Morningstar Farms Chik Patty and Peas
