Kid-Friendly Chili
This is by far the most basic chili recipe I have ever found. I like my chili hot, spicy, and hearty. My kids, however, do not have the same pallet and it is difficult to find a nice hot chili that they can enjoy. Well, I found one! I change it around a bit (okay, a lot), and we will be adding this to our menu pretty often! This is perfect for the colder weather!!!

Tapioca Crepes
Sometimes everyone needs something special for breakfast. I wanted crepes SO badly, I am thankful I found (and changed, a bit) this recipe!!! **These are super with sweet toppings. If you would like to add veggies, eggs, or bacon as a topping, just omit the vanilla

Dinner in a Pumpkin!!!
We have done this for the last two years and the kids ADORE it! (They were upset in the picture, because we told them they had to eat before trick or treating)
Dinner in a Pumpkin: (adapted from Tracy Roberts)
- Pumpkin: size depends on how many people you are feeding. The pumpkins pictured above could have made 4x this size of recipe, but I think a big pumpkin is cuter, so I use a large one)
- 1/2 lb ground beef
- 1/2 lb sausage
- 1/2 c. chopped onion
- 1/2 c. chopped celery
- Salt and Pepper
- 2 tbsp curry
- 1 (or 2) cans of tomato sauce (depends on how wet you would like the consistancy)
- 1 c. cauliflower, chopped into small pieces
