The recipe is adapted from A Dash of Megnut. The recipe is simple… it’s mashed potatoes mixed with a small amount of flour (I used GF Jules all-purpose flour), scallions and crispy bacon. Being a veggie, I made some without bacon just for me. I mixed in some spices, then quickly and lightly fried for a total crowd pleaser – a delight for everyone!

A Fried Rice kind of Friday! 🍚🥦😍..
.
It was “leftover night” here tonight and as part of that, we whipped our favorite VEGGIE FRIED RICE. 🌟 This simple, ONE-PAN dish used up all the leftover rice & veggies from last night’s dinner and was DELISH! 😋..
.
If you haven’t made your own fried rice, it’s definitely worth trying! This is one of our go-to dishes because it’s super QUICK n’ EASY, works with any combination of vegetables, and is perfect by itself or alongside other veggies or proteins, so there’s something for everyone.👌Plus, I love that I usually add a cup of CAULIFLOWER RICE in the mix and no one ever notices 😃..
.
Cute aside: by pure chance my mom made this tonight too! 🥰 She’s now a convert of adding cauli-rice to the mix and loves how quick it comes together!🙌🏻..

SPINACH QUINOA SALAD and... NEW blog post! “Simple Meal Strategies while Staying at Home.”🌿🍲🤗..
.
Today marks Day 21 of “staying at home” for our family. Thankfully we are all healthy. 🙏 But it was an adjustment when suddenly our entire family of 4 was living/working/schooling/EATING from home all day, every day… and we were no longer going to the grocery store multiple times a week. 🙃 We’ve learned to be really strategic about what we cook. It is a work-in-progress, but after 3 weeks, we have a bit of a routine working for us.👍This blog post shares all our best meal strategies for minimizing waste, maximizing pantry items and staying sane while feeding a family of 4 (including 2 teen boys, one with celiac disease) and still eating healthy and delicious food!😋🤗..
.
And if all you really want is the recipe for this most amazing salad with Lemony Garlic Yogurt Dressing (works with great with almond milk yogurt all my dairy-free friends👌), I’ve got that too! Super easy and fresh tasting, it’s a great mix of flavors and textures using of pantry items.😋..
