Spring Roll Salad

Pin It Now!
Working full time again has made it hard for me to keep up with my blogs!!  I feel so behind...but teaching again has really kept me busy and here in Saudi, that's such a good thing.  I must admit, I am amazed at how difficult it is to be a mom, wife and full time teacher.  Talk about trying to find balance in your life!  I'm so thankful I have a husband who is supportive and helps out...a lot.  
Of course, it's also taken a toll on my cooking style.  Thankfully, another lady who recently moved sold me her crock-pot.  What a lifesaver!!! (they don't exist here in Saudi...trust me, I've looked and looked!)  I've been scouring the web for amazing slow cooker recipes. 
In the meantime, I will try and get caught up with past recipes that I've been making.  

Another fab find from Pinterest.  It's my go-to cookbook now.  :)  
This was a great salad.  I made it to take to a pot luck and there wasn't nothing left at the end.  (which made me kind of sad because I was hoping for leftovers)
I had to alter the recipe based on what I could actually find here, but the end result was still delish.  

By the way....what's your favorite slow cooker recipe?

What's for lunch?

Pin It Now! So when I first started this blog, I posted a tidbit about these awesome lunch boxes I got for my girls.... this is what they are having for lunch today:



Now, no, I'm not normally this "themed" with their lunches.  Sometimes its whatever I can find in the cabinets.  The best part about these lunch boxes is that it makes me more creative in what I give them (they also have lids for two of the four containers)  I ordered the one that comes with a carrying bag.  You can check them out here at http://www.laptoplunches.com/index.php
The website also has all kinds of ideas for what to pack for lunch, including recipes.  My girls are lucky enough to go to a school where they will (secretly) heat up food.  So I get way more freedom in packing their lunch than kids at a public school.  However, soon, I'll have to get more creative!  

I ordered mine from Amazon to get free shipping.  These also make great lunch boxes for grownups too.  :)  BPA free as well.  Happy lunching!  :D
