Taco Lasagna (THM:S)

Ya’ll, I LOVE lasagna. For us Trim Healthy Mamas, that’s probably because most lasagna is an S, and therefore super filling and satisfying. We really like our S meals.

Slow Cooker Spanish Chicken and Rice (THM:E)

This dish has a backstory, and while I’m not going to promise that it’s super exciting, the truth is that I struggle with what to put ahead of these recipes. Do you want to hear about family life? Talk about current events? Or just talk about the recipe itself? But anyway, when I was a kid, my mom would make something called Spanish Rice, and although I didn’t hate it, I didn’t look forward to it either.

Trim Healthy Mama Chocolate Chip Pound Cake

Pound Cake is one of those things that you don’t normally associate with weight loss. Until now. I saw a picture of “regular” chocolate chip pound cake drizzled in some sort of sauce on Pinterest the other day and thought “I can do that!”

Caramel Coconut Cookie Slices THM:S

We had literally the BEST Thanksgiving ever this year. I didn’t have to clean my house, I didn’t have to cook, and all I had to do was show up at my sister-in-law’s house with creamed corn. At 2pm. That was it. And let me tell you, it was heavenly!

Trim Healthy Mama Chocolate Pinwheel Cookies THM:S

We all have memories of Christmas, be they good or bad. Hopefully, your memories are good, as mine are! Christmas was always a lot of fun for our family. It brought everyone together, and the food was phenomenal. Even though we’ve almost all grown, moved away, and started our own families, there are some Christmas traditions that I really kind of miss. One of them is receiving tins of traditional, homemade cookies from my Great Grandma.

Sugared Nuts THM:S

I completely and totally have a holiday baking supplies addiction. Especially when they go on clearance AFTER Christmas. I mean, what’s not to love about 25-cent sugar decorations, 50-cent food gift bags, cupcake liners, cookie topper, sprinkles, and more?? That 75% off rack just calls to me!

Chicken Chili THM:E

I am most definitely a bargain shopper. I base my meals/meal plan off of what produce is on sale, we raise our own pork, and we purchase chicken and beef in bulk. When I cook, I try to economize my time, too! For example, on Sunday I’ll often cook chicken in bulk in the slow cooker, then use it throughout the week to make enchiladas, pot pie, soups, salads, and more.
