Easy Thumbprint Cookies

These were requested by one of the older kids, so I had to dust off the recipe a bit. We had some leftover Rosella Sauce that we needed to use up, and it was PERFECT with these! These are pretty easy to make and they are a lot of fun to make with the kids!

Sourdough ‘Pourtillas’

What the heck are Pourtillas? Well, they are pourable tortillas… and they are so good and easy.

We love tacos and burritos on homemade tortillas but I don’t really like how long it takes me to get them rolled out so I wanted something a little easier.

Mr. Awesome likes the keto tortillas but they always seem to thin and fall apart, but these are just right plus they are quick and easy to make although I usually have two or three pans going to get them done in a hurry. You can even mix this up ahead of time and keep it in the fridge so you can make fresh, hot tortillas whenever you want them!

All-In-One Homeschool Portfolio Notebook Printables – Updates

I recently shared about the way I planned out our new homeschool year and included some FREE printables to go along with it… they have made life a little neater around here! Now I will share about the Homeschool Notebooks. We did use a similar system many years ago but I couldn’t find the post where I had shared them before so I decided to make a new post with some updates and some new printables.

You do not need to print these out but you can use them as a template for putting together your own notebooks or you can print them out and use them in binders… whatever works for you. We have done both of these in the past and I will try to post some pics of what our current notebooks look like once we get them put together.

Try color-coding your kids to make homeschool life a little simpler!

Cold Plate Dinners

The hot days are getting closer and sometimes we just need a quick and easy meal for dinner. I love the idea of cold plate dinners because most of them can be prepared ahead of time, thinking of my Meal Prep Mondays, and then easily plated when dinner time rolls around.

I loved the idea of the cold plate special when I worked at a little diner because it was something I could actually help with very easily and I got really good at making the plates look very nice. I think these would be great to prepare in advance for the Sabbath as well!

Banana Bread

This is another recipe from the old recipe box… who knows how long I’ve had it for sure? I do know it is a great way to use up any old bananas that might be hanging around your kitchen.

This also works great for the freezer. Just allow the bread to cool completely before wrapping in plastic wrap and placing it in the freezer.
