Mexican Ground Turkey Bowls

I'm kinda excited about this post, I have pictures and a coordinating video!

This is a meal that I like to make once, sometimes even twice a week. It's just so easy and if I'm really not feeling cooking a big meal this is my go to.
Plus, it's very customizable! You can use any meat you like as well as any vegetables you like.
Basically, it's a throw what you have on hand and let it cook meal. Almost like a wonderpot, minus the soup part, because we like meat right?

What I started with was a pack of ground turkey 1 pound 93/7 ratio as a base meat. What I had on hand veggies wise was shredded carrots, onion, garlic, and shredded red cabbage.

Grocery Haul Video

I decided I would show y'all what I get on a normal basis for my groceries. Usually I am better at meal planning but lately I've been just throwing a bunch of things in a pan and calling it a meal.
It's works for me.
So here is the video of what my husband and I eat on a weekly basis. We have lots of back up meat I got on sale that I usually pull the night before cooking a meal to thaw in the fridge.
I've been on the whole30 lately but my favorite snack to eat is veggies with hummus which I got so I could eat some during my reintroduction.
What's your favorite healthy snack? Comment below and let me know!

Hope you enjoy!

What's in my Pantry Tour

So I bit the bullet and uploaded my first Youtube video. I'm so excited to share with you and it is featuring a tour of my pantry.

It may be strange to some to show off my pantry, but I love looking at other people's pantries and fridge tours so I thought it would be interesting!

Let me know what you think! I will also be doing a 2nd pantry tour (for baking items) and a fridge/freezer tour later on. Today I am filming a grocery haul so exciting stuff for this little blog of mine.

Leftover Pico de Gallo Guacamole

I had some avocados that were getting rather soft and some leftover store bought pico I needed to use up. What better way to use those thing than to make homemade guac!?

Here I have 2 avocados, some leftover pico de gallo from the store and peeled garlic. I used two small garlic cloves

Split avocados in half with knife down middle, remove the pit

A learning experience

In an effort to become a better "home cook" I created this blog to spotlight something I love doing every day.
Cooking!
I got into it around the time I was in fourth grade. I wasn't as serious as I am now, probably because I was too busy playing outside, but I have always had such a passion for food and cooking.
I have not been to school for cooking or baking but I have always dreamed about it, maybe later on in life?
Today, I enjoy teaching myself cooking from recipes out of cookbooks, online, on my always on Food Network on the television and handed to me from friends and family.
My goals are to become a better cook and discover all types of new foods and recipes as well as baking a little!
This blog and my time will be a learning experience in itself so come on in and join me on my journey!
