The Whipped Sweet Potatoes is one of my favorite recipes. I couldn't find the exact one I use, but the link is close. The only change is I use 2 tsp. of pumpkin pie spice instead of any of the spices listed. Very easy and so good. They taste like pumpkin pie. Both of my kids love them. P.S. I don't use nearly as many marshmallows as the recipe calls for and sometimes leave them off entirely. The sweet potatoes are good enough you don't need them.
The Mac & Cheese Chicken Skillet is a sneaky way to get zucchini down your kids. If you peel the zucchini they'll never know it's in there.
I'm excited and apprehensive to try the Lemonade Chicken. I've had Lemon chicken before and it was amazing, but the recipe kind of scares me. One of those things where you're making it thinking, hmm.... these things don't sound like they should taste good together. Oh well, I'll cross my fingers and have a frozen pizza for back up.
Thanks for reading.
