I loved looking through her blog. She posts many of her Weekly Meal Plans and I am sure some of my other blogger friends and readers would be into seeing what a busy mom does to eat at home! I also found these Dilly Dust Deviled Eggs and this Crustless Quiche. Both which will be on my future menus!
The recipe that took me in, that said, Make Me, Make Me, was this Grilled Pineapple Guacamole. When I saw this, I blinked twice and thought, "where have you been all of my life?" I am huge avocado fan. Check out these past posts: Strawberry Avocado Salad, Good for You Mousse, Breakfast Salad, Avocado Hummus, and so many others!
