This is the first meal I like to bring. It's simple and delicious! I get my meat from Hackenmueller's which is my neighborhood butcher. Just like mom used to make, but better. Use leftovers for breakfast, just throw an  egg on it.

Oven baked, herb packed, fresh caught salmon filet, delicious oven roasted, garlic and rosemary potatoes and a bright fresh salad packed with veggies.

Chicken noodle soup that starts with a whole chicken, herbs, carrots, onions, and egg noodles. Huge crowd pleaser, even with hungry and picky toddlers. 

Ina Garten knows what the heck is up! I have been making this recipe for years and my kids ask for it regularly. The lemon butter sauce is sooooo delicious and can even accompany the roasted garlic and broccoli and rice. 

Traditional chicken potpie with a chicken, peas, corn, carrots and rue based gravy baked in a flaky pie crust. You will have plenty to share with visitors. 

Lasagna is cheesy, carb-y goodness on a plate. Scoop up a heaping helping of love in a 9x13 pan with a side of bright, crisp haricots verts with shallots.

A fajita bar can please everyone in the family.  Juicy, spicy chicken breasts, fresh and roasted veggies, and sour cream, guacamole, and cheese. You can eat it for more than one meal, and it's easy to prepare when you can sneak in a meal while the baby sleeps.

From scratch comfort food elevated with herbs and cheese to top off the traditional, cream based hamburger, carrots and potatoes. It sounds simple but you will never be sorry. Another easy to heat meal throughout the week.

Have you ever just eaten the insides of a twice baked potato? These are not your mama's mashed potatoes!! Cheeseburgers prepped for grilling. Shallots and roasted tomatoes as a topper with a big green salad.

Is there something in particular you are craving? We know that sometimes your postpartum self gets a hankering for something delicious. A pasta with pesto, home made pizza, chili? We hope to serve and food creativity is fun for me so I am open to suggestions.
