    Carrot Top Hummus

    My carrots have gone crazy! But that’s a good thing. I’ve been picking them and we’re enjoying them as a snack, pickled and in salads. But we’re left with all of these beautiful greens.

    Ranch Turkey Roll Ups

    Winter break came and went like a flash of lightning.  Still trying to get back into the groove of things.  Along with getting back on schedule I’m also trying to get my freezer stocked for the rest of the school year. My kids are not so much “into” pb & j sandwiches, so it’s a challenge to think…
