Spinach pasta is a very tasty type of homemade pasta and a great way to sneak some vegetables in the kids. It's great with spaghetti sauce, cream based sauces like Alfredo sauce, pesto sauces, or our favorite, homemade shrimp scampi!

With just three simple ingredients, you can make "shortcut" cinnamon sugar cookies. A fast and easy way to make some cookies, makes a nice little treat for the kids (adults too!).
Peeling Garlic Easily in a Jar
By attosa
Don't buy pre-peeled garlic or spend the time doing it yourself. Avoid the garlicky fingers by putting your garlic in a jar, screw the lid on, and shake vigorously for 30 seconds. The first half the of the shaking will break the cloves off, and the second half will peel the skins right off the cloves. It's a great little workout, too! ;)

This is a moist muffin perfect for breakfast or a snack. I used whole wheat flour and brown sugar Truvia. I also used whey instead of milk. This is a perfect way to use up bananas.
