Do It All Mamma

Hello all! I am a mom to three very active teenagers, two energetic mini-schnauzers, and one grumpy kitty. Some days it feels impossible to work all day, taxi kids around, prepare a meal, squeeze in a workout, walk the dog, AND tackle the additional 327 items on your to-do list! I would love to share my successes and failures in hopes of making your day-to-day life a little easier – from recipes to vacations and everything in between!

Easy Chicken Veggie Stir-fry

This is one of my go-to weeknight meals.  It is a quick, simple, one pan meal!  The combinations of veggies are endless so this meal can be different every time.  Today I had mushrooms, peppers, onion, broccoli, and a red curry seasoning pack – a get combo!  Just steam some rice, noodles, or even a package of ramen for a delicious and healthy meal.
