Lasagna Recipe Using Smokehouse Jack

So I received this huge cheese package from my friends from Real California Milk and I am so ecstatic I've decided to bake Lasagna right away because it was perfect timing my family and I were craving for a homemade version.

Thankfully, I have all the ingredients except CHEESE!  Hahaha, so thank you again RCM PH for these.

Ingredients:

• Oven Ready Lasagna Sheets from San Remo (I love this one especially for moms in a hurry!)
• Ground Beef or pork. (You can pick one, in my case I combine both)
• Spaghetti sauce.
• Bell peppers.
• Chopped onions.
• Different cheeses - depending on your palette.
• Anchor Parmesan Cheese and Mozzarella Cheese.

NOTE: to create creamy lasagna, it is best not only to layer spaghetti sauce but also creamy cheeses.  I like to separately melt cheeses with a bit of milk in pan.  I am using my newest Silkway FryPan, a laminated film pan, making it easy to melt cheese without it sticking on pan!  

Healthy Snacks for Kids and Adults

I give myself a pat on the back for training Kyle to eat healthy.  He eats his vegetables, his share of fruits, meat and a whole lot more!

But when he started school and learned to eat sweets like his classmates, from gummies to lollipops, cakes and chocolates, I knew I had to up my "snacking game"!  How can I make him snack healthily while feeling fulfilled and happy at the same time?

This summer, my son loves Ice Cream!  We actually have tubs of ice cream as a reward system for being a good boy!  But as you all know, the health-mom in me wanted him to snack healthily all throughout the day!  I want to reward him something that is delicious yet healthy!

So I leaned on to yogurt as an option!

Yogurt, that wonder-cousin to ice cream and cheese.  Yogurt is a mixture of milk fermented by bacterial cultures that produce lactic acid. It comes in varieties like low-fat, fat-free, Greek, or Icelandic style and more. It contains many of the same nutrients as milk, only in different amounts depending on the type and sometimes, the brand of yogurt. One serving contains many essential nutrients like protein, calcium and phosphorus to help build and maintain strong bones and teeth. Zinc boosts the immune system, making you less susceptible to colds. Riboflavin and panthothenic acid also help the body with metabolism. Yogurt also has vitamin B12 to keep the nervous system healthy and blood functions normal.
