Easy Breakfast Bean Bagels #FrijolesConTodo

Easy Breakfast Bean Bagels #FrijolesConTodo

This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Herdez. Now that school has started, schedules are crazy, which means that often times, my husband and my breakfast time is cut short. I am trying hard to get us both to eat well in the mornings, something packed with protein and filling, rather than reaching for a sugary pastry. We are both partial to breakfast sandwiches, so I decided to try … [Read more...]

Chocolate-Coconut Macaroons with Honey Bunches of Oats Chocolate

This is a sponsored post, however, all thoughts and opinions are my own. In my home, cereal is not just a breakfast food...it's a way of life. My husband can easily eat 8 bowls of cereal a day, my daughter loves to start her morning with one big bowl, and I love to snack on cereal at least once a day. Our favorite cereal?
