Happy Monday, friends!
This weekend, Kensington and I went to New York City to celebrate her 18th birthday 🙂 .
We saw Chicago on Broadway, ate some delicious food, did a little shopping, and had the very best time together. McKinney doesn’t have school today, so she and I are making our way home. It was a short but oh so sweet trip with my oldest girl.
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend too! If you’re looking for easy and delicious recipes to usher you from September in to October, this post is for YOU!
I don’t know about you, but I am trying to soak it all in. I’m going to soak in every minute of this next month.
Grab your pad, your pen, open your grocery shopping app and get to meal planning.
Happy Monday! I’ll see you all back here tomorrow. xx
We LOVE chili over at our house. This week, cozy up with my BEER CHEESE CHILI.

My SPICY CHICKEN BAKED TACOS will not disappoint on this Taco Tuesday!

Since it’s officially fall now, it’s time to start enjoying delicious pumpkin recipes! My PUMPKIN PESTO PASTA would make an excellent September into October dinner. It’s so easy and really so delicious too.
Oktoberfest, anyone?! My SAUSAGE & CABBAGE SKILLET is an easy way to celebrate at home. I could eat this meal every week 🙂 .

This Friday, whip up my EASY TACO RICE BAKE. It’s super simple and feeds a crowd.
Since we’re almost to October, it’s time to start baking any and all things with PUMPKIN including…

…my PUMPKIN S’MORES COOKIES. These are absolutely delicious!
And if you’re looking for a savory breakfast recipe this week…
…my SAUSAGE CRESCENT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE never lets me down .
That’s it for today! I’ll see you back here tomorrow!! xx

Heading to NYC soon. Any good tips on yummy lunch near Times Square?
Mix and Match Mama says
I don’t know that I have a great rec right in Times Square, but I bet others will!

I am a daily reader of your blog but the new addition of the full screen pop up ads are very irritating to me. I understand the revenue stream from advertisements and the banners at the bottom do not bother me, but the click bait of the full screen ads and needing to click to exit them feels very spammy to me. I come to your blog as a little reset and joyful read. The advertisements are taking away from that. Just some feedback for you. I may rethink my readership if I am continually bombarded by the giant pop up advertisements.
Mix and Match Mama says
I appreciate your feedback! I don’t know that I knew about that full page ad, but I can certainly see about removing it. That is annoying!

The chicken tacos look AMAZING!!
Kate says
Hey! Make Andrea’s Pulled Pork often. It’s so yummy! This time I made a lot! Can it be frozen??
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes! It totally can!
