I also wanted to give you a little heads up about a great company I’ve recently had contact with and will be hosting a giveaway for at the end of the month. Thirty-One Gifts specializes in darling bags of all shapes and sizes. This month they have a Customer Special going on. For every $31 dollars spent customers will receive 1/2 off one of their cute purses. A great deal, I’d say. Look for more information here. Giveaway coming soon. 🙂
Quick and easy go-to recipes are simply the best. For the kids, we always like to make mini biscuits and grands biscuits. With four ingredients we have a super quick meal that everyone loves!

I love to make Chicken tortilla soup! Especially in a crock pot.
1 can tomatoes with chilli's
1 can tomatoes with sweet onions
2 cans corn
4 cups chicken broth
3 frozen chicken breasts
1/2 cup sour cream
It has such an awesome taste to it, so many different complimenting flavors! Nice sub for taco soup.
I love to make calzones with some canned pizza crust when I am in a rush! I've recently gotten “pin”spired to do some braiding on the top just to make it cuter 😉

Easiest recipe ever is throw two chicken breasts in a crock pot with a can of diced tomatoes, 1/3 cup of sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Cook it for 4-6 hours, shred the chicken up and put in tortillas with whatever taco like toppings you like (I like it with cheddar cheese and sour cream). Sooooo yummy.

Simply, baked chicken! Season it (how ever you'd like), cover with foil and bake at 350 for 30-60 mins (depending on if it was frozen or not). I slice it up for the kids – this is considered chicken “nuggets” at our home – healthiest chicken “nuggets” around! 🙂 Plate it with a variety of fresh veggies and fruits, salad, etc…
