How could I forget about this oatmeal?! It’s probably one of the best things you’ll ever taste.
Overnight Pumpkin Oatmeal with cinnamon sugared pecans. Mix all of the ingredients in a container and leave it overnight in the fridge for a quick grab-and-go fall breakfast.

A classic Midwest meal of roast, potatoes and carrots going in the crockpot this morning. Having a BIG family means we eat a lot of food. I am thankful that we have enough to eat and I try not to let any go to waste.
It’s common knowledge that others around the world aren’t as fortunate, but did you know there’s enough food to feed everyone on the planet? The problem is that nearly 1/3 of all the food produced globally each year is lost or wasted.

The @wfpusa is working on ending food waste and solving hunger. What can you do? Take the hunger quiz, sign the ZeroHunger pledge, Interact with their Infographic and play the @wfpfreerice game! Link in bio for more information. #stopthewaste

A few weeks ago I traveled to Washington D.C to the @americanredcross headquarters. You guys, the American Red Cross isn’t just involved in disaster relief and blood donations. There are so many volunteer opportunities for YOU- even virtual ones! If you are looking for tangible ways to turn your compassion into action, check out my blog posts.

I explored #dc by myself today and came across @sugarlabdc 😋

I should probably visit some of the important landmarks while I’m here, but I’m currently in a food coma.

#ad I spend so many nights and weekends chauffeuring kids around to activities, watching their activities, and then waiting for hours at the field to watch some more. Sound familiar? @triscuit at @hyvee had me come up with everything you need for a weekend at the ball field (or dance competition, or track meet…) including their new on-the-go snack Wheatberry Clusters with Cherries and Almonds. #LinkinProfile for the list of everything you need!

#ad It’s always a party at our house, but the kids LOVE our basketball watch parties with @papajohns pizza- easy clean up and no cooking for me! I ordered on the @papajohns app in less than 5 minutes!

This was a recipe I created back in 2014 for @kc.masterpiece - I had to repost because 1) I can’t believe I forgot about it and haven’t made it in awhile and 2) I just noticed people left reviews on Pinterest... “easy but surprisingly very good,” “easy and tasty,” and “one of our favorites!” Here’s the recipe!
Layer sweet potatoes, rosemary, chicken, bacon, salt & pepper, bbq and then honey. You can wrap with aluminum foil and grill or bake in a pan in the oven.

4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 slices of bacon
1 cup KC Masterpiece® barbecue sauce
1/4 cup honey
2 large sweet potatoes, diced
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
salt and pepper

By now you guys might know about my love of products with purpose. I have worked with @causebox in the past, but I just bought myself a subscription because this Winter box is SO amazing. The cost is $54.95/quarter or $200 annually, but each box is always full of products that equal $200+ (and I always intend to save a few products for gifts). What’s in the Winter box? Check each tagged company to see their mission!
- @lstnsound wireless Bluetooth headphones ($100)
- @matrboomie earrings or necklace ($24)
- @lunarbeauty jade roller ($25)
- @siizu_official poncho ($115)
- @idlewildco 2019 planner ($32)

I’ve got one home sick all week (holding my breath it doesn’t spread to the other four), the dog peed twice on my new rug, and I’m confiscating love notes 😭 At least my kids have learned to use the @keurig and think it’s fun to make me coffee in the morning. I have ONE win!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and you didn't overdue it on the turkey :) If you want an easy way to use up your leftovers from Thanksgiving, you need to try this chili... using leftover turkey, sweet potatoes and of course fresh @redgoldtomatoes ! All of the ingredients are thrown in the slow cooker in 10 minutes or less so you can go relax..... you've spent enough time making all those delicious Thanksgiving meals! #ad

Spicy Pumpkin Soup in 30 minutes 🙌🏽 Utilizing canned food (pumpkin, chicken broth and @redgoldtomatoes)
Let’s talk about some misconceptions with @refreshingreal .. many canned foods do not have preservatives. Check the labels! About 90% of cans are BPA-free and all steel/aluminum cans are 100% recyclable.

Who uses canned food? 🙋🏽‍♀️ Last month I traveled to Indianapolis with @refreshingreal to see where our canned food comes from. These tomatoes come from 4 generation family-owned Triple S Farms and are actually canned and ready to go in as little as 4 hours! Did you know that some fresh food in the grocery stores can take weeks to get there? What?!? Check out the link in my bio for more facts (and myths) about canned food and my stories for more photos of the trip!
