Instagram post 2233709721184286565_1946175648 There’s some kind of game this weekend that is great to watch while eating chili. Or you could be like me and obsessively wash your hands and eat immune boosting foods (like sweet potato) because you’re currently avoiding the coronavirus. Up to you, but this Turkey, Sweet Potato and Kale Chili covers both obsessions. #recipe link in profile . . #momlife #food #foodie #mommyproblems #kale #chili #sweetpotato #health #healthy #superbowlfood #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #huffposttaste #buzzfeast #realsimple #seriouseats #thenewhealthy #f52grams #kitchn @williamssonoma #whatsfordinner #whatsfordinnertonight #familyfood
Instagram post 2232221996312450057_1946175648 This is not a sponsored post. As a family food blog, the fact that 1 in 4 Canadian children are at risk of going to school hungry is beyond tragic to SPC. Feeding their children is a struggle we wish for no parent, so please support #buyacupgiveacup. By purchasing @fruitsationscanada applesauces, one cup will be donated to @breakfastclubcanada for every cup purchased before the end of March—up to half a million cups in total. If you’re looking for ways to use apple sauce other than as a snack, please try our Whole Grain Blueberry Muffins (shown here) which uses 1 cup of applesauce. Let’s together help parents who need us, so they never have to send their babies to school hungry. #recipe in our archives

Instagram post 2224305923609252658_1946175648 I read a quote this week that said: Being a parent is like jumping out a plane with a bunch of people that don’t know how to open their chutes. So, you fly around doing it for them... then you hit the ground, but you don’t die. You get up and cook dinner. For every parent who is pulling off the impossible today and then making dinner, these simple Sheet Pan Chicken Tacos are for you. Thank you for being a super hero in and out of the kitchen.

Instagram post 2215761923725956207_1946175648 It’s #meatlessmonday but not yet #tacotuesday. Although, these aren’t even tacos so we’ll just leave these Sweet Potato Taquitos here and let you figure out what day to eat them on. (Not that it matters.) You just have to make sure you have them with lots of guacamole. That stuff is mandatory. . . #food #foodie #sweetpotato #taquitos #sweetpotatoes #vegetarian #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #f52grams #kitchn #thenewhealthy #buzzfeast @williamssonoma #whatfordinner #whatsfordinnertonight #familyfood #realsimple #imsomartha #vegetarian #health #healthy #mealplan #mealplanning #healthymealprep #mealprep
Instagram post 2209367852585340823_1946175648 We have one perfect #NYE hors d’oeuvres made two different ways. Our mini Yorkshire Puddings Bites with Beef Tenderloin have a #vegetarian option that feature a “beef” Wellington topping. We also share a fool-proof method for creating the perfectly puffed puddings. The only problem with these party nibbles is having enough for your guests since they’re gobbled up in record speed. It’s a real problem as there are never enough. Never.

Instagram post 2208282428064563073_1946175648 If you’re looking for a dessert for New Years Eve then call off the search. This No-Bake Mascarpone Cheesecake has been a staple at our holiday table, and people have lost their minds over its creamy, not-too-sweet perfection. I dressed it with crushed candy cane because my house is overrun with the sweets, and the peppermint balanced the cake’s richness. However, you can use your favorite fruits. A great make ahead recipe, this dessert will start 2020 off on the most delicious note. #Recipe 👇🏻 Crust 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 15 sheets of crackers) 1/3 cup light brown sugar 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted Cheesecake 1 1/4 cup cold heavy cream or whipping cream 1 block 8-ounce block of cream cheese, softened to room temperature 2 cups mascarpone cheese 1/2 cup granulated sugar 3 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, sifted 1/4 cup plain Greek style yogurt 1 tablespoon real vanilla extract Method Mix graham crackers, brown sugar and butter. Pour into a 10-inch springform pan. Press the crumbs across the bottom of the pan and up along sides; be sure to pack the crumbs tightly. Use a water glass to press the crumbs into the seam of the pan and along the sides. Place in the refrigerator. Using a stand mixer with the whisk attachment or a hand mixer, whip the cold cream into stiff peaks, about 5 minutes. Pour into a small bowl; set aside in the refrigerator. Using a stand mixer, beat your cream cheese and granulated and confectioners’ sugars until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula and add the mascarpone cheese, yogurt and vanilla extract and beat on medium-high speed until combined and smooth. Fold whipped cream into the cheese filling by hand until incorporated. Remove crust from the refrigerator and pour filling into crust and distribute so it fills the pan. Using an offset spatula, smooth filling across the top. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 8 hours or, ideally, overnight. For serving, loosen the cheesecake from the springform pan by running a knife around the edges and then gently remove from pan. Place cake on serving plate and garnish with crushed candy cane or fruit.
