Bell Prep: Playroom to Classroom in a Weekend

Welcome to Bell Prep 📚✏️ . I don’t know how virtual learning has been going over at your house, but our first week of virtual learning (a few weeks ago at this point) felt super chaotic. Between my husband working from home, me working from home, a baby, a Kindergartner, and a 2nd Grader, it…

All Bright? Well, All Right!!

I’ve been lucky enough to have a sneak peek at Beautycounter’s latest & greatest product – the All Bright C Serum – for just over a week now and I’m totally obsessed with this “sunshine in a bottle”. At first I thought I was seeing things, but quickly realized that you can literally see results…

Easy One Dish Dinner: Hummus Greek Chicken & Veggie Bake

This is my FAVORITE go-to one dish dinner. We do a lot of “bowls” for dinner in our household and this one is frequently on rotation. I usually have all of these ingredients on hand at any given time which makes it so easy to throw together! And while the ingredients for this dish are…

Easy Instant Pot Black Bean & Turkey Chili

I whipped this chili up last night, and it is truly the best turkey / black bean chili I have ever had!! Keith AND Avery loved it (though you may want to ease up on the cayenne if you’re cooking it for your kiddos). It is easy to make, naturally gluten-free, and SO flavorful and…
