Five Recent Recipes

Now that Brooks is to the stage where I can actually set him down (ha! sometimes), I've being making some new recipes. Here are my recent favorites if you need some meal inspiration!

All pictures are from their respected websites, I didn't think to take my own, sorry!
Chop everything, toss in the oil and spices then bam! Cook and you're done. I served this over rice and it was delicious! Plus it's full of veggies, hello healthy. It's so versatile too. Throw any veggies you got in there.

A friend from church made this for us after I had Brooks and I finally asked her for the recipe. This makes a lot and keeps well. I've been on a sweet potato kick lately after. I bought them for Brooks then realized how much I actually like them. Well I think they're technically yams...I don't know. ANYWAYS for this recipe you don't have to use wild rice, I've made it with brown rice and it turned out great. Also the longer it sits after you put the dressing on, the better it tastes.

Banana Oat Blender Pancakes
I was craving pancakes for dinner one night while Dan was out of town, but I don't love traditional pancakes. I hate when they're thick, cakey and dry. There are some pancakes that are airy, fluffy but not dense however I've never been able to recreate that at home. So I gave these a shot and I'm in love! I made them twice in a week they were so good! Plus they're pretty healthy too. And Brooks liked them so you know they gotta be good.

Dinner Rolls
I've made various roll recipes and they've all turned out good, but I'm still looking for great. This recipe got me closer! I have an aunt on each side that I refer to as the goddesses of rolls and I want to be one too! But seriously who doesn't love bread? This is the closest I've got and I think if I made a few more times It'd be perfect. I discovered that my problem is most likely adding too much flour to combat the sticky. The recipe said it was supposed to be sticky so I tried it and they turned out way fluffier.

Spicy Sausage Pasta
This is a recipe that I rediscovered. It's from The Simple cookbook I own but here's an online version of it. So simple and easy but flavorful! I usually have all the ingredients on hand except the sausage. I also sub milk + butter for heavy cream because I don't keep that on hand. So tasty!

So I've given this a lot of thought and with some advice from Dan the man, we've decided to go ahead and make our blog private from now on. This means that only those whose emails are on my readers list can view it. WHY Lately I've been thinking about the publicity and the openness of the internet and I don't want my security and my family's security to be a worry because the things I post on my blog. I realized that the reason I am blogging is; 1) For me as a journal and to record and read back on fun memories and 2) So family and friends can stay in contact and feel like we're apart of each other's lives even when we're far apart. Although the page views of all my Facebook friends and others reading my blog has been really nice (I'll admit, I like the numbers) I've realized that I enjoy some privacy more. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? This means that if you would like to continue reading our blog that I am going to need your email address...

We had a lot going on this weekend! Some good. Some bad. I woke up to this Friday the morning What a great way to start a Friday morning without work! I seriously have the kindest man ever. He's so thoughtful After he got out of class and before I had class we snuck in a last minute temple session . Who knew it would be so packed on a Friday mid day! I rushed (because I hate being late) but it was so worth it once you get there and just feel peace . That evening after classes and homework, we drove down to Idaho Falls for a family BBQ the evening before Logan and Amanda got married . The BBQ was great and I loved seeing all my family and meeting some of Amanda's family. I even got a picture with Sister Bullock :) All while this was happening my parents were supposed to be making the trip to IF and be there for the BBQ. I had heard briefly from my mom that Dad wasn't able to get off work and that they would be late. Then it got the point they wou...

  Love My boys! Nate's face! Brooks being silly Another round of sickness in our house. Brooks always seems to get a headache, spike a fever, pass out somewhere and wake up later feeling most of the way better. This time we ended up getting cold symptoms afterwards. When I got sick I was tested and whatever it is it's not covid. Dan got it last and was sick into February. It was lingering so he tested again and it was again negative. So whatever we had was mild, still not fun and stuck around forever. We have this cute bible book about Noah's ark. Carson starts looking at it and pointing to Noah says, "Santa Claus!" Oh. yes I can see how you think that haha. So we kept telling him no, it's Noah. He points to Noah's wife and says, "Mama!" hahaha so I'm either Noah's wife (they look very old in the book) or Mrs. Claus. Not sure whether to be offended or not haha! We sold our small freezer and upgraded to this beauty! I love it! I love being...
