Hello, friends!

What I Bookmarked This Week

Believe it or not, I’ve never had oat bran! But after seeing this recipe, I’m adding it to my cold-weather breakfast ideas.

Earlier this week, I made these egg bites and loved them! Two out of the three kids were huge fans too, and I love having something protein-packed that’s quick and easy in the fridge.

I also made the chicken salad I shared a couple of weeks back and LOVED it. I used rotisserie chicken, chopped apple, shredded carrots (because my celery wasn’t looking so good), and chopped pecans (kept the dressing recipe exactly as written). Delicious!

Party brownies, yessss!!

I’ve never heard of Magnolia cookies cake, but chocolate chip cake layered with peanut butter frosting sounds phenomenal.

Have a delicious weekend!
