All together, the process took about 40 minutes. I made a whole wheat crust with lots of yummy herbs and seasonings, then I added some fresh, organic chicken sausage, lots of fresh veggies, organic sauce and cheese...super easy, super yummy, Clean Eating Pizza!

Welcome to Mondays with Michelle! With Christmas right around the corner, I thought today would be the perfect day to share my favorite holiday cookie recipe.

I grew up making these cookies every year with my Mom and Grandma and I still make them today. It is a traditional German Christmas cookie called, Butterplätzchen or Butter cookies. The dough is very simple to make and the actual creating and decorating of the cookies is very kid friendly, so get your kids involved too... I'm sure they will love to be your helpers!

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Today I wanted to share one of my favorite easy side dishes… Rosemary Potatoes. This is for those nights when your family is staring at you with hungry eyes and all you’ve got is some miscellaneous meat defrosted in the refrigerator and no idea what to make with it. These potatoes are great with chicken, beef, lamb, veal, pork. You name it, they potatoes are the perfect compliment!

Here is the recipe:

Happy Monday to you all! I hope you had a yumtastic weekend!

Nice & Healthy, yum!

Time being of the essence, I thought I would share another quick, go-to meal with you. It’s not unusual for me to get home after 9pm during the week; this meal is for those nights. Especially since I just started working out with a trainer and drive thrus are no longer an option!
