I get inspired (and such a thrill) when weelicious moms send me their ideas for new recipes, though occasionally some of the suggestions can seem out there. Not too long ago, a mom sent me a recipe she had seen on a blog that was for Spinach Muffins. The recipe called for spinach and applesauce combined with a boxed cake mix. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for incorporating vegetables as often as possible, but there was something about the…

My kids are mad for pomegranate seeds. Kenya and Chloe will sit and eat spoonful after spoonful of this vitamin and antioxidant rich fruit until they’re blue in the face. The first time Kenya tried pomegranate seeds he was just over a year old and my husband and I watched intently as his little fingers eagerly picked up the ruby red seeds one by one and guided them into his mouth, staining both his digits and lips in the process a bright…

It’s the last weekday of 2011 (ahhhh!) and so I have compiled for you my top 10 personal favorite weelicious recipes from this year (ok, so I included 16 recipes, but who’s counting?). My simple criterion was: what was most popular with my own family. Some of these recipes, like the Grilled Cheese Pickle Panini and Chocolate Chip Granola Bars for school lunch, I made so many times this year that I lost count. I hope that this list inspires you…

Finding appetizers for your New Year’s celebration that both kids and adults will love isn’t always an easy task. There are my tried and true choices like little shots of soup (appears fancy for the grown ups and fun for little ones) or Mac, Chicken & Cheese Bites (who doesn’t like mac n cheese), and of course veggies and dip are reliable. But this New Year’s…

This recipe was inspired by one of my biggest pet peeves, never wanting to waste a single ingredient sitting in my pantry! I have a bad habit when I am roaming the grocery aisles: getting overly enthusiastic about a certain ingredient and then buying way too much of it, deluding myself that I will have all the time in the world to…

These Cinnamon Mexican Wedding Cookies are so much fun to eat with a crumbly, sweet, nutty texture. Topped with a sprinkle of powdered sugar they look like something my kids love calling Snowballs!

OK moms, what do YOU really want for Christmas? You’ve all probably been consumed with everyone else’s needs this year, but what about your’s? Diamond earrings? A trip to Hawaii? A pair of new heels? Maybe just some sleep? I promise in the next few years I will work on getting those kinds of luxurious goodies for weelicious giveaways (except, sleep. I can’t do anything about that. Even in my own house), but this year I’m offering two excellent items that you…

I have a habit of spending so much time making the dinner portion of our holiday meal that I often completely forget about dessert. And in our house, especially come this time of year, forgetting what most of my family considers the most important part of the meal is not advisable. If you’re in need of a yummy dessert you can…
