As a mom of five, I used to rely way too much on store bought items. I used to think “homemade” meant spending hours per day in the kitchen or worse, that it was all or nothing. But here’s what I’ve learned: it’s not about making everything from scratch all the time. It’s about being mindful and intentional, and making what you can, when you can. And these recipes changed everything! Most take 30 minutes or less of working time, and I’m saving hundreds each month while feeding my family foods that taste infinitely better made with simple ingredients I feel good about 🙌🏽 The smell of fresh bread filling your kitchen. The pride when your kids ask for seconds of your homemade granola. The confidence that comes from knowing you created something amazing with your own hands - just a few of the joys that come with making things from scratch. My Complete Homemade Kitchen Bundle is everything I wish I had when I started. It meets you exactly where you are - whether you’re swapping out one store bought item a week or diving all in. With 280+ pages of family-tested recipes, meal planning shortcuts, time-saving prep strategies, and simple swaps that will slash your grocery spending without sacrificing flavor or nutrition. The best part? You don’t need to be a kitchen expert to get started. Start small, friend - even one homemade swap makes a difference!

HOMEMADE RANCH DRESSING ⬇️ Welcome back to 30 Days Homemade! For these 30 days, I’m going to teach you how to make things you’ve been buying at the grocery store right in your own kitchen! And today we’re making ranch dressing. Once you start making things like ranch at home, it gets really hard to go back to store-bought. It tastes SO much better, takes just a few minutes to throw together, and you get to choose exactly what goes into it. Ingredients: -1 cup mayonnaise, homemade (recipe below) or store-bought -1/2 cup milk -1 tablespoon dried parsley -1/2 tablespoon dried dill weed -1/2 tablespoon onion powder -1 teaspoon dried onion flakes -1 teaspoon garlic powder -1/2 teaspoon dried chives -1/2 teaspoon salt Instructions: -Add the mayonnaise, milk, parsley, dill, onion powder, dried onion flakes, garlic powder, chives, and salt to a medium bowl. -Whisk until everything is well combined and smooth. -Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Don’t skip this step! It gives the flavors time to come together and allows the ranch to thicken. -Stir before serving and enjoy! Want to make the mayo from scratch too? Homemade Avocado Oil Mayo Ingredients: -1 cup avocado oil -1 whole egg, room temperature -1 egg yolk, room temperature -1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or fresh lemon juice -1 teaspoon mustard -Pinch of salt Instructions: -Add the whole egg, egg yolk, apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, mustard, and salt to the bottom of a wide-mouth jar. -Pour the avocado oil over the top. -Place an immersion blender all the way at the bottom of the jar. -Begin blending without moving the blender. Once the bottom becomes thick and creamy, slowly lift the blender upward until all the oil is incorporated. -Use 1 cup in your ranch and store any extra covered in the refrigerator. Seriously, once you taste homemade ranch, the bottled stuff just doesn’t compare. 🤎 #homemaderanch #simplerecipes #kidsnacks

These homemade honey buns are SO much better than anything you could buy at the store. Spoiler alert: They actually taste like real honey without the 40+ ingredients list full of preservatives and artificial flavors. Warm from the oven with that sticky honey glaze? Your kids will never ask for the packaged version again. Honey Buns Makes: 12 Total time: 2 hours, 15 minutes Ingredients: Dough * 4 cups all-purpose flour * 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast * ⅓ cup granulated sugar * ½ tsp salt * ¾ cup whole milk, warmed to 110°F * ¼ cup warm water * ⅓ cup honey * 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk * 5 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted * 1 Tbsp avocado oil * 1 tsp vanilla extract Light Cinnamon Filling * ¼ cup granulated sugar * 1 ¼ tsp cinnamon * 2 Tbsp melted butter Classic Honey Glaze * 1 cup powdered sugar * 1 Tbsp honey * 1 Tbsp melted butter * ½ tsp vanilla * 1-2 Tbsp warm milk Directions: 1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warm milk, warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for about 5 minutes until slightly foamy. Add the honey, egg, egg yolk, melted butter, oil, vanilla, and salt. Mix to combine. Add the flour and knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and soft. The dough should feel slightly tacky but not sticky. 2. Transfer to a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size. 3. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a large rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Brush with melted butter. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle lightly and evenly across the surface — this is just a hint of spice, not a thick cinnamon layer. 4. Using a pizza cutter, slice into 1 ½ - 2" pieces. Roll tightly from the long side into a spiral. 5. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing slightly apart. Gently press each one down with your palm to flatten. 6. Cover loosely and let rise 10-15 minutes until slightly puffy. 7. Bake at 350°F for 14-16 minutes, until just lightly golden on top. They should stay fairly pale and soft — don't let them brown too much. You might have to flatten again after they are done baking with a spatula. 8. While still warm, whisk together the glaze ingredients until smooth. Brush generously over the warm buns. Let sit 10-15 minutes to set. #homemaderecipes #kidsnacks #lifeofahomemaker #mindfulmothering # madefromscratch

Sunday meal prep for my family of seven and this week we made: 🧀 Cheesy crackers (exclusive to my books!) 🥚 High protein egg salad 🍞 French toast cups 🍎 Cut fruit + apples 🌮 Taco sticks 🍗 Two bags of marinated balsamic chicken thighs 🥪 Sandwich bread 🔥 Higher protein s'mores (homemade graham cracker recipe is in my books!) You do NOT have to prep every single thing on this list. This is my full Sunday, built over years of finding a rhythm that works for us. If all you do this week is make ONE item ahead of time, you've set future-you up for success. One less thing to think about on a busy day. That's a win worth celebrating! 💛 Want the recipes? You can find them in my bio under the "Weekly recipes" button! #homemaderecipes #weeklymealprep #kidsnacks #homemakerlife #homemade
