We all have those nights where we need to run into the store, get home, and get dinner on the table, fast- like, lightning speed.

I have some great ideas in this episode that will help you with those impossibly quick dinners. They are tasty, different, and simple- with one common ingredient.

My big sister, Jaime, shares a really great memory that we can all relate to. Her thoughts just may make you rethink how you do those big holiday dinners.

I recently discovered a fun podcast, called Candy is Dandy. If you ever wondered what different candies taste like, or where they got their name, this is a podcast for you!

As always, I share my weekly menu, and a classic recipe, but in simpler form.

In this episode, I want to remind you that how you feed your family evolves and changes based on so many factors in your life. It's so important to make sure you figure out if the way you currently do things is not helpful anymore, and then making those small changes to take away some stress, overwhelm, or guilt.

As moms, we're always trying to find ways to save time.

That's why in this episode I share some practical ways to truly save time in the kitchen. Spoiler alert- it has nothing to do with prepping everything one day of the week.

The tips I share will give you the motivation and encouragement to actually get dinner on the table each night.

But as always- there's no shame in my game. It does nobody any good to feel shame or guilt around dinner. So give yourself grace if you had every intention to cook dinner or hit up the grocery store, but life got in the way and you ordered pizza.

One of my best ways to save time is to use grocery delivery. There are some really great options out there and I really like Thrive market. Use my link to get a $60 gift and 30% off your first order!

In this episode, I share what meal planning is, and it might not be what you think.

There are many forms of meal planning, and it's not a one size fits all. So I encourage you to think about what could work for you, and why YOU want to meal plan in the first place. This will help you stick with it and grow in your journey of feeding your family.
