Tuesday afternoon I decided that I wanted to make something pumpkin and healthy for dessert (healthy enough that it would be good for breakfast also!). I searched for dairy free pumpkin spice breakfast cookies and found a few recipes but … Continue reading
I woke up late today, but have been busy ever since. I’m finally sitting down (at 2:30) to blog about all that I have been doing today.
The first thing I did when I woke up was have my coffee, plan my day, and spend time in the word. Today was day 1 of the Ruth study on She Reads Truth. This is an old study… one that I missed in the past. I’m not a huge fan of the one that is happening right now, so I went backwards. It is fantastic.
Then I made beds (well, I had the kids make their beds but I went behind them and straightened them because I’m a perfectionist).
Then I straightened up the house. This didn’t take very long because I tend to keep it clean these days. Plus, I have the kids clean up after themselves. It helps that they are only home in the evenings and on the weekends.
Here’s what the house currently looks like:
I updated my meal plan for the month.
Then I started my meal prep.
First, I cut veggies for lunches and dinners.
Then I made healthy snack muffins.
I prepped lunches.
I made dinners for the nights that I will be going to town.
Veggie and meat sauce
Whole wheat penne
Taco meat
I ordered some items from Walmart.com that I will need this week. Friday, I will only have to buy ground beef, produce, and dairy! I will also be picking up some pizzas from Papa Murphy’s for Saturday (my parents will be here).
Next I will be folding and putting away my one load of laundry for the day.
We will end the night by playing games!
This is an easy and quick breakfast for the days in which I’m in a hurry. I use the small smoothie cups that came with my Ninja blender.
Place all items in smoothie cup. Blend.
Drink!
This is one of our favorite breakfasts because it stays with us for a long time (until lunch). It’s also tasty!
Ingredients:
2. Cook bacon (pouring off the grease as you go)
3. Clean pan (if you burn bacon like I did…) and add back some of the grease.
4. Pour potatoes into the pan and sprinkle with Nature’s seasons. Cook until firmly soft.
5. Combine onions and peppers with the potatoes. Cook till onions are translucent.
6. Pour remaining grease into pan.
7. Break open, season, and beat the eggs.
8. Place eggs in container with the rest of the mixture and stir!
We eat this on tortillas with some cheese and salsa! I prefer corn tortillas but the rest of the family likes flour. This is a great, filling breakfast! And so easy if you prep ahead of time!

I was so excited to find an easy recipe for crockpot pumpkin oatmeal! I decided, though, that I wanted to change things up a bit, so I’m going to share my changes to the recipe here!
Here are the ingredients (pictured above):
I doubled the recipe and mixed it all up. I placed some of the liquid into a container and put it in the refrigerator. I placed the dry ingredients in a bag. I plan to make it again later in the week. I prefer it fresh, which is why I didn’t make it all at once.
