Cheesy Pasta Sauce
Prep time: 10 minutes, if everything is already cooked (pasta, sweet potato puree). Otherwise up to 45 minutes if making homemade sweet potato puree.
Yield: Makes about 1-1/2 to 2 cups cheesy sauce. Enough for a few toddler servings when mixed with pasta.
I suppose this is essentially a cheese sauce for mac and cheese, but I just made up my own thing based on what I had in my kitchen. I wanted to make something quick and somewhat healthy for my son that would fill him up for dinner. He loves picking up these mini pasta wheels, or trying to "stab" them with his fork! I usually have some pasta already cooked in the fridge waiting for the addition of some kind of sauce. I also always have cubes of sweet potato puree in the freezer to add to his foods at a moment's notice, since sweet potatoes are his favorite veggie. Cheese is also a big hit with my son, and I mixed in some other yummy veggies with the cheese sauce. I tried a little bit myself and LOVED it! Needless to say, my son loved it too! Anything with pasta and cheese is so comforting! :) Enjoy!
Caribbean Chicken
This is a great summer dish with a lot of flavor. You can also add fresh mango slices, and it would be great with a lime slice and some fresh cilantro.
I only do by taste, so please excuse this. My measurements are only guesstimates. You can add or subtract as you see fit.

Irish Soda Bread
Irish Soda Bread is a dense quick bread that uses baking soda for leavening, rather than yeast, making it a quick and easy recipe to bake at home. Various recipes for soda bread are popular throughout Ireland, but American versions of Irish Soda Bread traditionally include California raisins, which add a scrumptious sweetness and also help to keep the soda bread moist.

Having trouble getting your children to each their vegetables? Mine love this. Just don't tell them what is in it.
I made the mistake of telling my cousin what was in it. She didn't want to touch it.
I gave it to the kids and they devoured it. It lasts maybe for a day. No leftovers and they ate their vegetables.
