Silk Gone Savory + {Creamy Chicken & Wild Rice Soup}

At any given moment, I usually have 3 - 4 different kinds of Silk almondmilk in my fridge: Vanilla Unsweetened, Dark Chocolate, Protein + Fiber Original, and Almond/Coconut Blend.  When I first started using almondmilk, it was always in sweet scenarios -- in a breakfast smoothie, in muffins, in brownies, in cobbler, in pie etc... the vanilla flavor was my go-to. But when I started partnering with Silk on a regular basis, I made it my goal to add more savory recipes to my repertoire. Almondmilk is so versatile ...

Day 3 Reboot + {Squash, Carrot, & Apple Soup}

My Little Helper + Slow Cooker {Chicken Corn Chowder}

Honestly, I don't remember ever spending much time in the kitchen growing up. Or grabbing a stepladder or chair to get closer to the action. Maybe because of this, or maybe just because... I always hated cooking. For my entire 20s, and into my 30s: Hated it.  And then something happened -- I realized I liked being creative in the kitchen. It wasn't the cooking itself I hated, it was following recipes.  I was being held back by the list of ingredients on the page. ...

Spilling the beans + {Slow Cooker Pork & Beans}

Well, it's time for me to not only cook the beans, but to spill them too: I've joined the ranks of working moms again...part-time! I started working 3 mornings a week at Babycakes' new Montessori school, while she attends. I really am sooooooo excited for the perfect fit! But not so excited about all the new germs we've been so lovingly introduced to.  We've both been sick for a number of days, and it just makes everything so much more difficult.  I have no energy, and ...
