How to Plan a Baking Day

by Toni Herrbach

Many people tell me that they do not have time to make healthy meals from scratch. I don't have much time either. That is why for the past few years I try to do all my baking on one day of the week. Occasionally I will have a freezer cooking day, but I prefer to do my meal prep for the week on one day. Baking day looks different every week because it changes based on my menu. This week I focused ...

The Best Marinades for Meat

by Toni Herrbach

marinade for meat

When I first was young I had no idea how to cook meat. I quickly realized that meat required some kind of seasoning. I discovered Lawry's marinades and used them for years. They were good but not great. Over time I realized that a great marinade can make your grilled or broiled meat taste amazing. These three marinades are perfect for chicken, steak, or pork and you probably already have the ...

chicken and spinach skillet

The BEST Homemade Monkey Bread

by Toni Herrbach

homemade monkey bread

I recently made monkey bread (or pull-apart cinnamon bread it seems to have different names) and I forgot how much my kids LOVED it. From the time I took it out of the oven, until the plate was completely empty was under 5 minutes. My kids devoured this! While monkey bread is definitely not a healthy breakfast it is a fun breakfast to make for special occasions. It's also so much easier to ...
