Thanks to the Minute Rice Cups I keep stocked in my pantry, they heat quickly making them essential for this Salsa Verde Chicken Skillet. We love Minute Rice Cups because they are Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, No Preservatives, MSG-Free, Cholesterol-Free and are ready whenever I need them.

Ingredients you will need:

  • Black Beans: drained and rinsed
  • Corn Tortillas: they crisp up perfectly in the oven almost like little chips on top of the skillet

How to Make Salsa Verde Chicken Skillet

  • In a skillet over medium heat add shredded rotisserie chicken, black beans, taco seasoning, salsa verde and Minute Spanish Rice Cups. Mix to combine and cook until everything has warmed up. 
  • Cut corn tortillas into quarters and place on top of chicken mixture. 
  • Place into oven and broil for 4-5 minutes or until the tortillas start to crisp up. 
  • Enjoy as is or top with salsa and sour cream.

    This salsa verde chicken skillet sounds like a dream! Love how quick it is with Minute Rice Cups. Do you think swapping the tortillas for pita chips would be just as delish? 😜

During the 2020-2021 school year I was pregnant wi
During the 2020-2021 school year I was pregnant with my second. What a crazy year to be teaching in general, but also being pregnant added a second layer to it.

Already a hard year… then I lost my daycare in March 2021.

No options for a toddler and newborn.
So I took a one-year unpaid maternity leave.

Toward the end of that year, I applied for two teaching jobs.
Got both offers.
But my gut screamed:
“Don’t take them.”

I cried to my husband.
Told him:
“I really think there’s something else out there for me.
I think I can replace my teaching income—and daycare—doing something different.”

He trusted me.
I trusted myself.

Now?
I’m living a life I once dreamed of.
Doing what I love.
Working from home.
Raising my babies.
And never missing a moment.

This Homemade Marshmallow Creme is so light, airy,
This Homemade Marshmallow Creme is so light, airy, easy to make and made without any corn syrup. It will make you question why you use to buy the jar stuff.

P.S. the ingredients on jet puffed marshmallow creme are: Corn Syrup, Sugar, Water, Contains Less than 2% of Dried Egg Whites, Cream of Tartar, Xanthan Gum, Artificial and Natural Flavor. 

INGREDIENTS
3 large egg whites
¾ cup granulated sugar
½ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS
Place a saucepan on the stovetop, fill it with about 2 inches of water and bring it to a boil.

In a heatproof bowl (large enough to sit on top of the saucepan without touching the water) combine the egg whites, granulated sugar and cream of tartar. (Alternatively, you use a double boiler.)

Increase the heat to medium-high and hand-whisk the egg mixture continuously. As it heats, it will become frothy and thinner.

Keep whisking until the sugar has fully dissolved into the egg-white mixture.

To check, dip a clean finger into the mixture and rub it between your fingers. It should feel smooth with no sugar granules. Be cautious, as the mixture will be hot. If you’re using a candy thermometer, the temperature should read 160F.

Once the sugar has dissolved, add the vanilla extract and whisk on high until stiff peaks form.

Your marshmallow fluff is now ready to use. Once it has cooled to room temperature, transfer it to clean jars to store in the fridge or use immediately.

This Cookie Dough Shaken Espresso with vanilla cold foam is sweet, bold, and totally worth shaking up at home. Barista who?
Save this one for your next iced coffee craving!

Comment COFFEE for all the details sent straight to your inbox. 

INGREDIENTS
For the Cookie Dough Shaken Espresso:
2 shots espresso
1-2 tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
1 tbsp chocolate syrup
1 Pinch flakey sea salt
Ice
For the Vanilla Cold Foam:
2-3 tbsp heavy cream
1 tbsp vanilla syrup

INSTRUCTIONS
Pull two fresh shots of espresso and let them cool slightly.
In a jar with a tight lid, combine espresso, brown sugar syrup, vanilla bean paste, salt and a handful of ice. Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until chilled and frothy.
Add chocolate syrup to your glass. I like to smear the chocolate syrup on the sides of the glass for a little extra decor.
Pour the shaken espresso into the glass filled with ice.
In a milk frother or small jar, combine cold heavy cream and vanilla syrup.
Froth until light and airy but still pourable. (A handheld frother works great here!)
Spoon the cold foam over the top of your shaken espresso.
