Skillet S'mores Dip

Skillet S'mores

I can't take full credit for this make-your-children-happy treat, as versions of it have been floating around the web for a while. What I will claim, though, is that it can turn a gloomy Tuesday afternoon into something special in less than ten minutes, because that's how long it takes to put this seasonally inspired skillet sweet together. 

There really isn't a recipe to follow: just pour two cups of chocolate chips into a 9-inch skillet and top with 17 or 18 marshmallows that have been sliced in half. Bake in a preheated 350° oven for 10 minutes (watch the chocolate - if it overcooks it's likely to seize) and serve with graham cracker sticks for dipping. 

I’ve yet to let a year pass without sharing a s’mores-based dessert here or over at SavvyMom (2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010) so consider this the 2015 contribution to the list.

Meals for Matthew We have a new eater in the house, and looking at the photos above it's hard to tell which is more delicious: the sweet potatoes being shovelled into this baby's mouth or the boy himself, who's cleared quite pleased with his new developmental milestone. Feeding babies has changed a lot since the last time I filled my freezer with frozen sweet potato puree, and I must confess that I fell down the Internet rabbit hole of research, trying to figure out how I should nourish this child of mine now that it's all so different. There's the popular practice known as Baby-Led Weaning to consider, and the iron-rich-foods-first guidelines established by Health Canada. More importantly, and I think this is key, there's also fifteen years of parenting experience under my own belt that I really should chew on. This isn't to say that I consider myself an expert, because I...

What is Your Dinner Dilemma? I know I'm supposed to be offline this week, enjoying a few days of R&R with my guys, and truth be told, that's exactly what I'm doing. I've checked in to my social media channels only twice today, refrained from any Instagram posts, and haven't Googled a single recipe or food-related topic since Friday. I'd say my Digital Diet is going well. Having said that, I can't stop thinking about what dinner will look like next week once the older boys are back in school. September also brings a return to extra-curricular activities, high school football, and the new hockey season. In other words, it's busy, and I'm sure the same can be said for your household, which is why I'm wondering about your dinner dilemmas - assuming you have any, of course. I know what mine is this year, but I'd love to hear about yours. Are you hoping...
