Special thanks to Circulon® for sponsoring this recipe for 20 Minute Caprese Chicken and the opportunity for one lucky winner to receive a Circulon® Momentum™ Cookware Set! #CirclesForLife #SimpleGourmet I know, I know. It's already October. I still find it hard to believe! Where I live school starts right in the middle of the official "Summer" months, so I get thrown off with my seasons those first few months. It also doesn't help that September had a majority of triple digit weather days, … [Read more...]

Fresh Lentil Bean Salad
I was asked to participate in the #LoveALentil #LetsLentil campaign, sponsored by Lentils.org. Although I have been compensated, all opinions are my own. It's salad season! At least that's what I consider summertime to be, don't you? My method of salad building is literally throwing together whatever veggies (and sometimes fruit) that I have on hand until what I've come up with seems sufficient. In case you're wondering, I have the same method for smoothies too, haha! There's really so many … [Read more...]
Easy Pork Loin Lettuce Wraps
Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Smithfield® Marinated Fresh Pork. The opinions and text are all mine. This summer I am all about the quick and easy meals for my family, like these Easy Pork Loin Lettuce Wraps. I’m loving colorful warmer weather recipes with a punch of flavor, but aren’t heavy or too time consuming.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen’s Top 10 Recipes for 2016
Another year in the books, folks. This year seemed endlessly long, am I right? 2016 was definitely quite a year. I know many people who can't wait for the year to be over, and I do understand. We lost many brilliant stars (I am still mourning Prince), this election season was pretty crazy no matter what side of it you were on, and it just seemed so...long. So join me in saying "Sayonara" to 2016 and let's look forward to great things in the coming year. But first, let's take a look at the top 10 … [Read more...]
Deli Sandwich Style Sliders
Special thanks to Sprouts Farmers Market for sponsoring this recipe for Deli Sandwich Style Sliders, it's the perfect appetizer for hungry guests! I have a confession to make. What I'm about to say can be pretty important, especially this time of year everyone is having the important conversation - where will the holidays be spent? It might even be a deal-breaker if not handled properly. I am a super slow cook. Parties, holidays, even dinner sometimes - it just takes me so long. Maybe … [Read more...]
One Pot Chicken Veggie Spaghetti
One meal in my house that I make more than any other meal is spaghetti. It's a universal favorite; my kids love it because it's tasty and fun and my husband loves it because he's a creature of comfort. I love it because I know that my family will devour it and ask for more, and it's easy to make! However, instead of preparing the good ol' classic spaghetti I've decided to switch things up a bit with this classic comfort food. While I do love tradition, sometimes I prefer to make some changes and … [Read more...]
Honey Mustard Crispy Chicken Wrap with Sweet Potato Fries
I love to recreate recipes that are childhood favorites. Most of the kids I know love chicken strips (or nuggets) and fries. It's inevitable! When I was a kid it was also a favorite for me, and I actually know grown adults who will just order chicken strips and fries at every new restaurant they go to. It's just one of those meals that's easy and comforting, so I decided to spruce it up a bit! For this sponsored post I’ll be using the Foster Farms Simply Raised thin-sliced boneless skinless … [Read more...]
Red and Gold Flatbread Pizza
Special thanks to Sprouts Farmers Market for sponsoring this very special football inspired recipe for a Red and Gold Flatbread Pizza!
