This is another one I can’t take any credit for. Well, to be honest, there’s very few times I’ve thrown dinner together without help from someone. Sometimes it’s lovely food bloggers, sometimes it’s what I stumbled across on Pinterest, sometimes it’s recipe cards from my mom or friends. Even with all that inspiration – or maybe because of it – I’m really not good at coming up with my own meals. Continue reading

Monday meals: white bean soup
I wish I could take credit for this one, but there’s no way I’m creative enough in the kitchen (or in life, for that matter) to come up with a soup this delicious.

Starting this week, we’ll have a regular feature here on Moms of NNY. Each Monday, we’ll be posting a recipe from a contributor or one submitted by a reader.
I’ve been trying to do better at meal planning, not just because it’s far easier to shop for groceries when I know exactly what I need.
