This was one of those recipes I threw together on a crazy weeknight when I had ground turkey in the fridge and zero time. I didn’t expect my family to love it as much as they did — but now it’s on repeat. It’s got all the classic sweet-and-savory sloppy joe flavor, but lightened up and ready in minu...
I used to dread weeknight dinners. I wanted something healthy, but I also wanted something my husband and kids wouldn’t roll their eyes at. That’s when I found my groove with recipes like these zucchini taco boats. They’re quick, packed with flavor, and feel like comfort food — but without the heav...
If you’ve ever grabbed a Chick-fil-A kids meal just for the Icedream cone — I see you. It’s sweet, soft, and that perfect in-between of ice cream and frozen yogurt. But what if I told you it’s super easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients?
This Homemade Chick-fil-A Icedream is light...
I used to swing through the drive-thru just for a Frosty — because let’s be honest, it’s basically chocolate therapy in a cup. But after I started focusing on eating cleaner and upping my protein, I knew I needed a version that hit all the cravings… without the sugar crash.
This Homemade Protein Fr...
I made this one hot afternoon when I needed something cold and tropical but didn’t want to make a smoothie or turn on the blender for long. Just frozen pineapple, water, lime, and a little sweetener — and wow, it hit the spot. Now it’s my go-to when I want to feel like I’m on vacation (even if I’m j...
This drink was inspired by a tropical fruit stand we stopped at during a family road trip. They served fresh passion fruit juice with lime — and I’ve been dreaming about it ever since. This is my easy version with citrus and sparkling water for that same bright, juicy flavor — no plane ticket requir...
I first made this when we had a big bowl of leftover berries and mint from Sunday brunch. I didn’t want to waste them, so I muddled it all together with a splash of sparkling water — and the Berry Mint Splash was born! Now it's my go-to when I want something fresh and pretty, without a lot of effort...
This one’s for the days when I’m craving something bubbly but not sugary. I threw this together on a hot afternoon while making lunch — fresh lemon, a splash of lime, and sparkling water. It’s so simple, but it hits the spot every time. Light, zesty, and way better than anything in a can!Â

This is my “I need a vacation but I have 5 loads of laundry” drink. I made it one busy afternoon when I needed a pick-me-up that tasted like the beach. Just a quick mix of tropical juice, lime, and ice — and suddenly, I felt like I had 5 minutes of summer in my hands. It’s sweet, sunny, and totally ...
I made this for the first time at a backyard BBQ when I wanted something fun and fruity that still felt light. We had a bowl of berries, a bunch of mint, and plenty of sparkling water — and just like that, the Summer Berry Mojito was born. It’s the kind of drink that makes you want to sit down, slow...
This one was born out of my love for anything citrusy and calming. I had half a grapefruit and a few sprigs of mint left over from the weekend, and instead of tossing them, I tried this. It’s now one of my favorite ways to start the day or beat the afternoon slump. It’s clean, fresh, and that grapef...
I first made this during a quiet afternoon when I just needed a break — something pretty, peaceful, and refreshing. I had some dried lavender from a gift set and lemons in the fridge… and that’s all it took. This lemonade is light, fragrant, and honestly feels like self-care in a glass. It’s now my ...
