Kabobs
Ingredients
Wooden/Metal skewers
Meat choice (chicken, lean steak)
Choices of veggies (tomatoes, peppers, onions, mushrooms)
Instructions
Cube up meat and marinate in your choice of free seasonings or sauces in a ziploc bag for a couple hours. For my seasonings I truly just pull random stuff out of my fridge and cabinets. Lemon juice, salt, pepper, garlic, whatever you heart desires.  Cut pepper and onion in squares. One at a time skewer meat and veggies one at a time until full. Place on grill and cook until done/tender.

Rice

1 tsp olive oil
1 Tbsp minced carrots
1 Tbsp minced onion
1 tsp minced bell pepper
1 tsp minced garlic
½ cup brown rice
1 tsp liquid aminos

In a skillet, place olive oil and warm on medium heat. Add in minced veggies and cook until tender; stirring occasionally. Add minced garlic & stir. Put the rice in a pan and add 1 cup of water & soy sauce. Cover and simmer on low for 5-10 minutes or until rice is tender; stirring occasionally. Remove from pan and enjoy.

No Bake Super Cookie

Anyone else struggle with after school snacks? My kids, they LOVE junk. They walk in the door begging for candy, chips, cookies. All the things they don't need. I've made it a mission of mine to provide them healthy options when they get home. Today we are mixing up an old favorite &&& we even put a spin on it! No Bake Cookies, make with my supershake (Shakeology). We did vanilla & chocolate because my oldest is just like me; NOT a chocolate eater. So he has peanut butter flavor. These boys are gonna go nutsssss for these. I LOVE this option because its sweet, so to them its a treat. But it has the vitamins and nutrients from my supershake to help fuel their body (it acts like 7 salads) so #momwin I don't feel guilty packing this in their lunch, letting them grab a couple as they run and play. No Bake Super Cookie Ingredients: 2 scoops chocolate Shakeology OR vanilla Shakeology 1 cup oats 1 cup Peanut Butter 1/2 cup honey 1/2 cup coconut o...

The Perfect Quiet Getaway

Do you ever feel like you're going a million miles a minute? The busy of life overwhelms you. You just dream of a vacation, quiet, getting away. Then I have the perfect place for you >> Woodland Cabins in southern Illinois. Located just outside of Carbondale Illinois, its nestled perfectly on a quiet plot of land so you are close enough for convenience but secluded in your own little piece of heaven. This was our first visit and our entire goal was to RELAX. Literally do nothing for two days other than enjoy each others company. We arrived Friday and the FIRST thing we did was open the door to awe. Our cabin was WoodSong & it was quaint, adorable and so homey. They even had an adorable Christmas tree set up for the season. The second thing we did was jump in the hot tub! It was located just outside our bedroom door so the perfect way to relax on a cold winter night. We surprised some friend who were also staying on the property. The fireplace was lit and it w...
