Photo Credit: Scott Bauer With Thanksgiving soon upon us, I thought it would be a good idea to start a new series on how to cook a Thanksgiving Turkey.

We have always loved to camp, but since we bought our teardrop trailer earlier this year, we have been doing a lot more of it. While I love to camp, one part of it I don’t enjoy is coming up with camping meals and getting all the food together. I like to have all the food prepped and… Keep Reading »
I have to admit over the past couple of years, I haven’t eaten much bread. It’s not that I don’t like bread – I most certainly do. However 2 years ago, our family made a commitment to remove high fructose corn syrup from our diets.

Hopefully my kids will polish off the rest of the Christmas cookies so I can… Keep Reading »

During the winter, I make at least a couple of batches of soup each week. Hearty and filling, homemade soup is a great way to warm up on a cold winter’s day. One of our favorite soups to make is this Dill Carrot and Celery Root Soup recipe. I originally got the recipe from The Nourishing Gourmet,… Keep Reading »
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Modern Mom Insider for Hellmann’s. All opinions expressed are 100% mine I hope all my US readers had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I know our family did. We ate too much as usual, and probably have enough leftovers to last us for a week. After a day or so, my… Keep Reading »
