I love the tastes of fall SO much! Pumpkin spice is my favorite, but apples and cinnamon come in at a close second. I love making Apple Cranberry Pecan Crumble, but sometimes just apples is nice. And for this Apple Cinnamon Crumble recipe, I swapped the pecans with walnuts. This recipe is seriously so easy…just dump it all in a pie plate and cook!

School has started for most students and teachers, or will start soon. Parents, teachers, staff, and kids everywhere are trying to get enough sleep and get back into the routine. You may be asking “How can I get a good night’s sleep?” It isn’t as easy as it seems like it should be for many of us.

Growing up, when my dad grilled for a meal, it was always delicious. No matter what, it was good. Of course, it took hours to prep the food and the charcoal grill, so I knew it was special. My husband taught me how to grill early on in our relationship, and it is definitely one of my favorite ways to cook. We use a gas grill, but Eckrich Smoked Sausage tastes good on any kind of grill! That’s why I used it for this super easy and super delicious Grilled Sausage Wrap with Veggies! When shopping at Target, just pick up your favorite Eckrich Sausage (Be sure to use the 15% off Target Circle Offer!) bell peppers, tomatoes, an onion, and a pineapple. All these ingredients cook well on the grill and add a nice touch to the meal. I also served cucumbers, baked beans, and chips with this grilled sausage wrap, but your favorite sides will work!
Simply slice all your veggies and pineapple and throw it on the hot grill alongside your Eckrich Smoked Sausage. Keep an eye on it all. The sausage is likely to be done before the veggies, then the tomatoes, onions, peppers, and pineapple.
When everything is cooked to perfection, add the smoked sausage and your favorite veggies to a tortilla.Wrap it all up and serve with your favorite sides. See, it could not be more simple to serve this delicious grilled meal to your family!
I love that the Eckrich Smoked Sausage is the perfect size and flavor for these grilled sausage wraps.
Eckrich sausages make it super easy to prepare homemade meals to my friends and family in efficient and affordable ways. Plus, they are always enjoyed by everyone! They are good to have on hand for year-round meals that are quick and easy, allowing you to spend more time with your friends and family!
I love that each wrap can be customized with each family member’s favorites. Love cheese, feel free to add it! Want to dip your sausage wrap in ketchup or mustard? Anything goes!
These easy and delicious Grilled Sausage Wraps with Veggies are quick and yummy for the whole familiy!

My family loves sandwiches and Mexican food, so these Chicken Fajita Sliders are an obvious choice when making a quick meal for them. They can be customized with their favorite toppings and really, anything goes because they are individual sliders! Want more meat and less veggies? No problem! I built the sliders minus the guacamole before serving, but they can totally be individually made at the dinner table!
I love keeping John Soules Foods products in the freezer for a quick, impromptu meal for the family on nights when I need to spend less time cooking and more time with the family. Add veggies to the frozen meat to make it a balanced meal! Where to buy
These foods are fully cooked and contain no artificial ingredients. They are also gluten free and high in protein, which is what our active family needs!
To make Chicken Fajita Sliders, simply place the hot fajita meat on the bottom of the slider bun:
Then top with grilled onions and bell peppers:
Shredded cheese is a must for fajita sliders!
Brush buns with butter, sprinkle with cheese and add cilantro to be fancy! When cheese is melted, remove top bun and add some guacamole, if desired! If not, these sliders are still super delicious.
I added my Instant Pot Mexican Rice and Refried Beans to round out this meal, but the chicken fajita sliders are really a meal in a bun!

Over the past few years, I have become sensitive to a few foods, including dairy and gluten. I try to really limit these foods so I can feel better, and it has worked. That means, however, that I have not gotten to enjoy some of the foods that I love. Recently I was introduced to WayFare plant based pudding, and the flavor and texture was so incredible, I wanted to see what my kids thought about it!View Post

It is summertime, which means the kids are home from school. No more waking up early and taking the kids to school, just lazy days, right? Well, factor in the fact that kids are home ALL. THE. TIME. and thus create more of a mess, what is a stay at home parent to do?
Checklists!
It is time to enlist the help of the kids and other family members in your house. You for sure should not have to clean the house yourself. After all, you did not get it dirty by yourself! My suggestion is to set clear expectations and make daily checklists. I do that with the boys, so they can clearly see what is expected of them, when they need to do it, and they cannot have video game time until their tasks are complete.
These printable checklists are super easy to use and once your family gets in a routine, it will become much easier. I like the fact that these are not chore lists, but to do lists, where you can add whatever needs to be done and customize it. If our oldest son needs to practice trumpet, take out the trash, and write a letter, I write it down. He is learning to take responsibility and do what he needs to do first so he can relax and have fun after everything is complete!

One thing that is helpful for any family is the Neato D8 Intelligent Robot Vacuum. Here is why:
Give Yourself Grace!
Know that most homes that are lived in and do not have a maid cleaning them are cluttered, dirty, and well…lived in! Sometimes just having the floor cleaned of crumbs makes me feel better (which is why the Neato is so helpful!) If that laundry is taunting you from the couch, move it to a closet until someone can fold it. If the dishes are dirty in the sink, run some soapy water and tell yourself that they’re “soaking.” It is completely okay to have clutter in your home. Give yourself grace and know that we are all just doing the best that we can! And enjoy your summer with your family!!!
