The grill master in her natural habitat! #grillin #veggie #momlife #caravanlife #MoMeindhoven
Dinner is served. This is what caravan life is supposed to be!!! #grilling #caravanlife #vegetarians #healthyfood #healthygrill #MoMeindhoven
It's not any crazier than a soft plastic sack with hot dog liquid in it, is it? I'll let you know how they are. #imnotsure #hotdoginacan #veggiedogs #grilling #hotdog #MoMeindhoven
I thought the rice from dinner deserved it's own picture before the kids made me pick out the mushrooms. They love the flavor the mushrooms bring to the party but refuse to allow one piece to touch their plate. Oh well, kids are weird. I soaked dried mushrooms (about a cup) in water then cut them up and added them and cut garlic to my little rice cooker. Then the standard one cup of rice and two and a half cups of water (using the liquid from the mushrooms). I also added a veggie billion cube for extra flavor. Oh my goodness this was delicious!!!! I can't wait to eat the leftovers tomorrow for lunch!! #cheapmeal #healthydinner #ricecooker #mushrooms #kidfriendly #caravanlife #MoMeindhoven
Caravan life!!!! I really thought I would be grilling every night but now that caravan life is a reality I've realized that that isn't really practical. Like... I haven't grilled once in 3 weeks. But we are still eating well. My new favorite contraption is a rice cooker that was given to me. I see many blog posts about it in the future! #caravanlife #hippielife #ricecooker #healthyfamily #MoMeindhoven
I've been so busy the last few weeks that I've started to forget to take care of myself. My sleep has suffered, me energy levels have suffered and even my blog and social media has suffered (the worst, right!). But today is a new day and a fresh start. I'm starting my day with lemon ginger water instead of the usual coffee. Let's get that metabolism going!! I'm sure I'll have a coffee later, though. Good morning everyone!!! #healthymom #freshstart #morningroutine #lemongingerwater #MoMeindhoven
