Easy Muffin Recipe
For so long I have been wanting to start creating and posting more of my own recipes on here and today is the day! I made these muffins from scratch, making up the recipe as I went; writing ingredients down on a paper towel.
This recipe takes so little time and not a lot of ingredients so go ahead and make them! If you like your muffins a little more moist, I would suggest adding more agave syrup or a little more peanut butter. These muffins are both toddler and hubby approved!
All you need to do is mix all ingredients, spoon into cupcake tin filling to the top of each cup.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15-17 minutes. Take out and place on cooling rack, dive in and enjoy!
Instant Pot Carnitas
I was trying to come up with a recipe to feed 10 people and this creation came about. I have been loving my Instant Pot and have begun testing out recipes I make up. This is by FAR the best one that everyone enjoyed!
If you prefer your meat soft instead of a little crispy skip the steps on the stove and in oven!
Breakfast Burrito Recipe

Shredded Chicken Tacos
Who doesn’t love a yummy taco? In our house one of our favorite go-to foods is tacos! We have many different favorite recipes but one of the easiest is shredded chicken tacos in the Crockpot.
This recipe tastes super delicious and there is relatively no prep involved. It is a perfect meal for a quick and easy dinner. You dump all ingredients into the Crockpot, set it on low and can walk away for hours! These smell delicious while cooking and the chicken becomes very tender when simmered in the Crockpot.
A few tips:
- Get all ingredients prepped before starting to cook anything.
- Dice all your toppings so once chicken is done you can just enjoy!
- Use either meat claws or metal forks for shredding.
- If you really like your chicken in smaller bites, use a mixer to shred it into tinier pieces after cooking.
Check out the recipe below and enjoy your tasty and fresh chicken tacos!
Homemade Turkey Meatballs
I started making meatballs when we first got married a few years ago. I made meatballs with ground beef, the way I had them as a child. I thought that was the only kind of meatball that people liked.
After browsing Pinterest, I realized that there were so many other proteins that I could use to make meatballs. I read about chicken, turkey, tofu, etc. I had never cooked ground turkey but it seemed like the most tasty option.
When I finally made turkey meatballs for the first time, they turned out okay. They were pretty dry, and not very flavorful. Over time though, I have developed a recipe that I love! My husband will eat seconds of them. which is a huge deal, since he is not usually one to eat more than one helping of anything!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Recipe:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees
- In a large mixing bowl add turkey, eggs, panko and spices
- Once all ingredients are in mixing bowl, stir all ingredients together by hand
- Your meatballs should have a consistency that if you roll them into a ball they stay together and do not fall apart
- Roll meatballs into roughly an inch and a half diameter and place on a baking sheet
- Once you have all meatballs made, place in the oven for 15 minutes (some ovens make take longer to bake as well as depending on the size of your meatballs)
- Meatballs should be checked with a meat thermometer to ensure that they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit
- Allow meatballs to cool, then eat!
- If you prefer a more crispy meatball-before baking in oven heat a skillet with 1 tbsp olive oil, once heated add meatballs, turning constantly until you brown all sides. Then follow the steps above to bake them
