• Sriracha Mayo on Corn

    Yes, you read that right, Sriracha mayo on corn.  So, so, so GOOD! Summer for our family always means lots of corn on the cob which also equates to finding different toppings to make it taste even better.  Last night we experimented with a few different toppings and the clear winner was a combination of Sriracha and mayo, with the addition of parmesan cheese and a shredded Italian cheese mix. Just mix 2 Tbsp of Sriracha with about a cup of mayo.  Definitely adjust the ratio of Sriracha to mayo depending on your preference of heat.  You can also add some garlic powder to add even more flavor. If you prefer to just buy the…

  • Breakfast Egg and Sausage Muffins

    Mornings can be a bit hectic around our household especially if we are all trying to get out the door on time. I am a big believer in eating breakfast to start the day right but sometimes because we are rushing cereal becomes an attractive choice for a quick breakfast, even though I know it is definitely not the healthiest of food for myself, the Mr, and the kids.  Enter: Breakfast Egg and Sausage Muffins. These little muffins are simple, healthy, and best of all fun to make with the kids.  They can be made up of whatever veggies and/or meat you have left in your fridge and each person can even customize their own muffin. The kids had a…

  • Green Drink Recipe

    Hello everyone and happy Tuesday.  Last week I posted a picture of my green drink on Facebook and Instagram and got a lot of questions about what was in it, why I drink it, and how to make it.  I thought I would take the opportunity to share what it is with you! There are recipes all over the internet for this green drink and that green drink but the recipe I use is a combination of a couple different recipes I had found online.  What is great about a green drink is that you can substitute different fruits and vegetables into the drink based on your own preferences.  I warn you that it may not look pretty…

  • Fashion Friday: White Jeans

    Happy Friday everyone!  I’m excited to share with you a wardrobe piece that I just recently added to my collection. White jeans.  I know I’m on a white clothing kick with my white t-shirt post last week but hear me out.  There is just something so classic, clean, and effortless about white jeans.  Here I wore them with a simple black top and tan wedges. White Jeans – Similar Black Top – Similar Wedges Just like the white t-shirt, white pants are versatile, can go with pretty much anything, and can transition from casual to dressy by simply changing or adding accessories.   And I understand the fear of wearing white: the STAIN.…

  • Easy Korean Beef Bowl

    Growing up with a Korean mom exposed me to some amazing cultural food that I think a lot of people would love if they tried it.  I know I converted my husband to loving Korean food!  The great thing about Korean food such as this easy Korean Beef Bowl is that it is typically healthy and especially yummy.  In addition most of the ingredients used are often found at your local grocery store. This Korean Beef Bowl is a play on bibimbap (rice and veggie mix) and bulgogi, a flash-grilled meat dish. What is great is that if you are short on time and/or money this dish keeps it pretty fast and cost…

  • Watermelon, Feta, and Cucumber Salad

    I LOVE FARMERS MARKETS.  There, I said it.  Who out there relates?!  There is something about the fresh fruits and vegetables at my fingertips, the energy in the air, and the hustle and bustle of people and vendors that always excites me about the farmers market.  This past weekend my family and I went to the Minneapolis Farmers Market and I came home with a bag full of fruits and veggies ready to be eaten. Here are some yummy produce waiting to be bought. I also love that there is so much more than just food at the market, such as flowers, meat, popcorn, and other things. My mom caught my baby girl Gianna…
