I know you are always looking for healthy, make-ahead breakfasts, and I keep coming back to my all-time favorite: steel-cut oatmeal. With a little forethought and a few Mason jars, you can make enough steel-cut oats for a whole week in just five minutes.
The result? Monday through Friday, you have a jar of wholesome oatmeal all ready to go. Pop it in the microwave at work and breakfast is served! Here’s how I do it.
Our growing collection of child-size dishes, bowls and utensils have never had a proper home. We’ve used whatever space was open and easily accessible to stash the pile of tiny things used daily for mealtime.

“This recipe is a staple in Mexico. Raw seafood is cooked by the lime juice! Now don’t wrinkle your nose! You would never know the seafood was not cooked prior to serving.

Your cast iron skillet replaces the cookie sheet — carry it to the table and let the pan keep the biscuits warm while you serve dinner.
Some might find restaurant supply stores unattractive and utilitarian, but I can’t pass by one without going in. Sure, there aren’t any items with pretty packaging or cutesy gadgets vying for my attention, but I just love wandering down the aisles and seeing what restaurants use to efficiently get food out to their guests.
