Easy Air Fryer Donuts

I love baking with my kids. I know I have mentioned how much I love cooking with my kids more than a time or two, but it can be such a fun activity to do together for them to learn not only a helpful life skill, but it can be a fun science project as well to learn about changing properties. But sometimes I want to just create something easy with them. And these Easy Air Fryer Donuts are only two ingredients, but a huge hit the whole house enjoyed.

Lazy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

With the season changing and things getting cooler outside, I have been on the lookout for more hearty filling meals. I have been trying to switch up our meal plan because it fills like we are eating the same things over and over again, which is fine, but can get boring after a while. So I found a recipe called Chicken Pot Pie Bubble Up and altered it to make what I now like to call Lazy Chicken Pot Pie. My entire family loves it and any meal that can get my kiddos to eat their veggies is a mom win in my book!


Lazy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe


For this recipe, we add more chicken because protein really bulks up a meal and fills you up for longer, but you don't have to. You can also use canned chicken to make this even easier. You could use canned veggies as well, but we didn't enjoy the taste at all. We don't normally eat canned vegetables so that could be why. It could definitely make this meal even cheaper than it already is. I love how easy this Lazy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe is to make as well as inexpensive it is. Some have called it chicken pot pit bubble up, but that requires you to make the dough from scratch. I will include those directions below, but I like taking the easy way out whenever I can.

Crockpot White Chicken Chili Recipe {Healthy Comfort Food}

 Since I have came across White Chicken Chili, my entire family has loved it! I have adapted it quite a bit though to make the process easier for me and have more flavor so I thought I would share my updates. This dish is a fairly low calorie dinner option that will leave you full and satisfied especially on those cold winter days. I personally love slow cooker meals because I just throw everything in the pot and then by the time dinner rolls around it's ready to go.


Crockpot White Chicken Chili Recipe {Slow Cooker Healthy Comfort Food} Freezer Meal


For the past two years, this recipe has tied for second in our HOA's annual Chili Cook Off. I might have won this past year if more people voted/participated. But I like to make this because I don't mind if there are leftovers (there never is). My entire family enjoys it and it's highly asked for!

This recipe also makes a great freezer meal! There is so much that if my husband doesn't want to take it as leftovers, I can throw it in a glass Tupperware container with the date in dry erase marker and have saved it for a later night when I didn't have time to prep anything.

Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

This recipe was originally published December 2, 2012! WOW! So much has changed since then for us. We have another child for one, and a lot has changed diet wise. I thought I would update it for a few reasons. You could make this slow cooker recipe in a crockpot or instant pot (which wasn't a thing in 2012). The original recipe called for Velveeta cheese and I thought I would share how to make that homemade. With the current climate and so many making recipes at home with canned goods, I thought I would share a better for you recipe made with items from your pantry instead of fresh from a fridge. 


The original version of this recipe was created to trick my daughter into eating her veggies by adding purees into it which you could still totally do, but I have found that you can do this with almost ANY recipe really. Making the cheese sauce for this homemade is better for you because it has less preservatives. If you want to make it easier, then you can definitely buy Velveeta block cheese and call it a day. You could also make this keto friendly and omit the spaghetti noodles, then just top it on zoodles. Yum!
