Simple, Colorful Mediterranean Orzo Salad

Food

To be honest, now that we are entering fall, it doesn’t quite seem appropriate to share this Mediterranean orzo salad with y’all! This chilled orzo salad is so tasty and colorful, so it feels like more of a summer dish. But considering it doesn’t actually get cool here in Charlotte until later, it’s basically still late summer here. Plus this…

Theo’s Nursery Tour

Home· Motherhood

After writing my recent post about the DIY Giant Ruler Wall Art, I decided that I should probably share some photos of Theo’s nursery. The idea was to do with a jungle animals theme, but to keep it relatively minimal and simple overall. It all started with finding this cute jungle animals mobile, and we kind of went from there!…

Amazon Home Finds – Part 2

Amazon Hauls· Home

One of my most dangerous habits I’ve developed since having my son is Amazon shopping at 3 am while breastfeeding 🙂 I just happen to stumble upon awesome finds at that hour and also ending up ordering (too much) stuff that I think we need/would be helpful/look good in the house! Some of these items I have ordered myself already,…

DIY Giant Ruler Wall Art

Easy Roasted Tomato Sauce Using Fresh Tomatoes

Food

This year our garden yielded a lot of tomatoes. I mean a LOT of tomatoes. And honestly, it’s by accident! We had been throwing tomatoes scraps into our compost and we think that some of the seeds from the scraps survived and germinated in our garden beds this year. We have heirloom tomatoes growing (those were actually intentionally planted by…

I recommend priming your sheets of plywood FIRST, then tracing your outline of the characters and then cutting them out! It makes it easier to see the image if you’re using a projector, and then it’s also easier to see your outline when you start painting!

DIY “Terracotta” Pumpkins 🎃 I love the look of th DIY “Terracotta” Pumpkins 🎃 
I love the look of the terracotta pumpkins, but knew I could DIY it for less 😌
Just mix up some baking soda into paint until it forms a gritty paste and apply a couple of coats to a cheap plastic pumpkin. On your last coat while it’s still a LITTLE wet, sprinkle on some additional baking soda and dust it around with a paint brush. #falldecorations #diyhalloween #halloweendecorations

I’ve never been super intentional about decorating I’ve never been super intentional about decorating my bedroom but with baby number 2 on the way, I now recognize that I need a lovely space to rot in the newborn bubble 👶 today I’m tackling bed styling (we have a king sized bed for reference). I tried my best to keep it on a budget bc WHYYYY are pillows so expensive??? #bedroomstyle #pregnancy #roommakeover
I made these carb-balanced/blood sugar friendly/hi I made these carb-balanced/blood sugar friendly/high protein breakfast muffins often in my first pregnancy and honestly have enjoyed them well beyond pregnancy! They’re only 5 ingredients and give the bready texture I was missing when I had gestational diabetes. It’s kind of similar to a sausage ball! I normally eat 2-3 muffins for breakfast as each muffin has about 7 grams of carbs and 12 grams of protein!

5-INGREDIENT SAVORY BREAKFAST MUFFINS
* 1 pound of turkey sausage (or whatever type you like)
* 4 eggs
* 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
* 1 cup Kodiak cake baking mix
* 1/3 cup cottage cheese

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350℉ and spray a 12-cup muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray
2. In a pan over medium heat, add the sausage and crumble while cooking. Cook until no longer pink. Remove from heat and allow to cool briefly.
3. In a bowl, crack the eggs and lightly beat. Add shredded cheese, kodiak mix, cooked sausage, and cottage cheese and mix well (mixture will be thick)
4. Fill the 12 prepared muffin cups evenly with the mixture.
5. Bake for about 22-25 minutes or until golden brown on top

Recipe Notes
If meal prepping for the week, store leftovers in a container in the fridge. You can heat by microwaving for about 1 minute. I prefer to reheat them by microwaving a couple for 15-30 seconds and then pop them in the air fryer at 350 for 3-5 minutes.

It also turned out to be so inexpensive but something so personalized for my toddler 🥹❤️ #birthdaytradition #toddlermom #kidsbirthdayideas
What I ate in a day at 22 weeks pregnant with a hi What I ate in a day at 22 weeks pregnant with a history of gestational diabetes (my doctors have asked me to be carb-conscious because of my history!) PSA: I’m not including vegetables (unless they are starchy) in this carb count bc my dietician said I don’t need to count them 😌

Breakfast: breakfast burrito with egg, @jonesdairyfarm chicken sausage, tomato, and avocado (I know I should switch to a lower carb tortilla but just let me have this one indulgence lol) + sugar-free @coffeemate in my coffee

Snack: @costco brand protein bar

Lunch: Cannellini bean salad (about 1/2 cup beans in this serving) with tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, olives, feta, lemon juice, olive oil, parsley, salt/pepper + 2 mini naan bites

Dinner: crispy chicken cutlet topped with Caesar salad (love the @chosenfoods dressing) + side of strawberries 

Bedtime snack: @fairlife chocolate milk 🥛❤️🍫
