Buffalo Chicken Meatloaf .... and bonus ranch mashed potatoe
Just served up a juicy and delicious new creation tonight. This dish is half packed with veggies so good for you and very moist. The potatoes were a little indulgence, and using the buttermilk to substitute for a lot of butter keeps them very creamy. You can definitely substitute low fat or fat free ranch dip in the…

Feed those kids right in the morning ... and their parents t
One of my breakfast go-to's during the school year. Just because time is tight doesn't mean you have to give them sugary packaged "breakfast" offerings. Make some quick and easy calzones to cut and serve like breakfast sammies! http://momvsfood.blogspot.com/2011/08/breakfast-pinwheel-calzones.html

Spicy Gazpaacho ..... 36 calories per cup of soup!

Delicious Broccoli Cheese Soup!
I am a HUGE fan of creamy broccoli and cheese soup. Adore the stuff! I slimmed up our old favorite and added some taters because I needed to use them up. It helped make the soup a lot creamier-which was great since I used some broth and water instead of all milk/cream. It tasted even better as leftover after sitting…

You can use fresh or dried rosemary, I only had dried in the house (just use 1 TBSP fresh instead). This is an awesome Spring griller and has a very bright clean taste! They will definitely be on my table again in the near future. http://momvsfood.blogspot.com/2011/03/lemon-rosemary-pork-chops.html

Need a new dinner starch? Wheatberry and(or) Barley Salad!!
This is a delicious new side I just cooked up. I am in a rut of being sick of rice, pasta, and potato everynight so have been scouring for some new material hehe. No need for soaking the grains, and they cook up in about 45 minutes. The dressing is tangy and citrusy and makes this a great grill side :)…
