Happy New Years! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Years with your friends and family. I’ve been MIA for the month of December, between the holiday rush, getting sick, traveling and food poisoning it’s been a crazy month.
This is one of my all time favorite recipes that I have at one time or another made for all my friends when they have had babies. This recipe comes from Iowa Girl Eats, if you don’t know her blog, definitely check it out! She was one of the first eating/workout blogs that I fell in love with before I decided to start my own. I actually lost my pics that I took of this and a couple other dishes, but head over to Iowa Girl Eats blog to check it out!!
