#DisneySide Family party

All About Our “Two-In-One” Mickey Mouse Party #DisneySide

Disclaimer: I received free products in order to host the Disney Side @Home Celebration. The opinions expressed here are my own.

#DisneySide Mickey Mouse Party

The past few months have been pretty hectic in the Harris household. Somewhere among the chaos, we had a few birthdays to celebrate. My oldest turned 19 in the beginning of January, and then D-Man turned 5 at the end of that month, and RoRo turns 4 next week. A few weeks later RiRi turns 14 too, and then right after that is Big G’s birthday and then mine. It’s pretty safe to say that every year it’s hectic from January to May and we get tired of cake fast! This year we decided to try something different. Since we moved so soon after D-Man’s birthday, we decided to have a party a few weeks later and combine it with RoRo’s birthday. We’d planned to meet in the middle of their birthdays, which would have been the first week of March. Unfortunately we postponed that party because I somehow sprained my ankle around that time and I was under doctors orders to stay off my feet. In addition, my dad was moving back to California, so we decided to have the party the week after he moved here when my foot was all healed.

The boys loved sharing a birthday, we opened up our home to friends and family that hadn’t had a chance to visit since our move, and it worked out so well that the boys asked if we could do it this way for a few more years. Since everyone always asks if they’re twins anyway, why not just have a big party for them both?

Thankfully I was one of the many bloggers picked to host a Disney Side @Home Celebration around the same time we were planning our two in one party. I received a suitcase full of goodies to help facilitate and decorate our party, and of course it was in the perfect theme for my boys. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse! It was so easy to plan with this theme, the colors are so fun and exciting. I went to my favorite cake guy and we got two different cakes made for each of the boys. We also got a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse style bounce house for the kids and I made a few Mickey Mouse themed foods to serve to our guests.

The Disney Side @Home Celebration Kit included all the tools we needed to inspire a magical celebration. such as: Disney napkins, cups, balloons, plates, tablecloths, and a banner. Disney tattoos and stickers.  Disney Bingo, trivia, and face painting kits. HP photo card packs. Disney vacation planning DVDs. Disney cookie cutters and cupcake wrappers. 6-pack of Craisins Dried Cranberries and coupons.  American Tourister Luggage. Measuring cups and recipe cards from ABC's The Chew. Hanes t-shirts and decorating kit. Social Media Tools. Themed activities and recipes.

Mickey Mouse themed food was a hit!

Mickey Mouse themed bounce house, the kids had a blast in it!

We had a wonderful time with our family and friends, the kids bounced away all night and the older kids enjoyed decorating t-shirts with the fabric markers. We had a pinata full of candy and all the little ones that came were all boys, which was perfect. We had beautiful weather and a fun time, so our #DisneySide party was officially a success!

[Sponsored]: Summertime is coming and will be here before we know it! You all know that I love easy meals during the warmer months, and I also love a good meal in a bowl. It’s also Vidalia Onion season 🧅 so I paired this seasonal favorite with pan-seared shrimp and veggies as a light rice bowl using your choice of grains.☺️This meal is an absolute delight!

Get the recipe and all the Vidalia Onion details by clicking the link in my profile or desktop users can click here for the recipe >> https://mamaharriskitchen.com/2021/06/pan-seared-shrimp-veggie-rice-bowl-vidalia-onions/ .

Also make sure to grab some Vidalia Onions from your local grocer before they are out of season in late August/early September.☀️

This time of year I love warm, comforting recipes that are super easy and delish. This ridiculously easy Chicken Tortilla Soup is a one pot meal, ready in under 30 minutes and uses already prepared rotisserie chicken for maximum flavor (and ease)! With a tasty blend of flavors and textures, it’s like a bowl full of comfort. 

Get the recipe by clicking the link in profile at @mamaharriskitchen or just google “Mama Harris Kitchen Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup” 🍲 Enjoy!

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

Happy December, all!! 🎄Since it’s basically Christmas now, it’s time to share ALL the holiday cookies! 

Every year I join my friend @natashanicholes as she heads up her #HousefulofCookies virtual cookie swap, where many of us share some sweet treats for the holiday season. 

This year I’ve created Cranberry Pistachio Citrus Cookies to share as my contribution. 🍪 I know that a lot of things have turned “virtual” throughout this year, but a little virtual bake-off is a fun way to connect with some of your favorite people!

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
