I love a good savory meal. I am not sure there are many people who would not agree with me on that. I also love a meal that brings great flavors but doesn’t take many hours for me to make on a week night. The quicker the better.

Recently I worked with Cans Get You Cooking and was inspired by their “Cantry” pantry focus. How many times is your family ready for dinner and you have no idea where to begin? Did you know this fact? 60% of moms think that coming up with dinner ideas is more difficult than getting their children to go to bed on time. This is true for me! With canned food staples like canned fruits, veggies, broth and sauces on-hand, you can easily make it a Cantry night! Cans seal in foods’ natural goodness and nutrition so it’s there for you any time. Not only are they available and fresh, but they cut the prep process by a lot – that speaks volumes to me!

Canned foods can be a hallmark of a healthy diet. An analysis of NPD data shows that adults and children who ate 6+ canned food items over two weeks were more likely to meet or exceed their recommended daily allowance for 17 essential nutrients than those who ate 1-2 canned food items over the same two-week period. To me, it can be as easy as eating a healthy rounded diet at home or resorting to takeout or go out to eat because I don’t have the ingredients on-hand to make dinner! If I didn’t have the above ingredients at home, it would only be a quick 15 minute run to the store and plenty of money saved in the store over running to my nearest restaurant trying to fill an entire family’s likes and tastes. That adds up, on both calories and price!

Pin to Pinterest

Who doesn’t love Finding Nemo or Finding Dory. These are two popular movies in our home and we are a bit obsessed. In an effort to work on our Summer Bucket List this summer, we wanted to tackle this fun Finding Dory Homemade Squirt Playdough.

Supplies Needed:

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl mix the flour, salt, oil, and cold water together. You will notice the ingredients begin to clump up. Continue mixing until a soft dough forms.
  2. Because you are using less salt than most play dough recipes, you will notice that the dough stays clumpy. This is what will give it the coral effect. If you wish for smoother dough, add an extra ¼ cup of salt.
  3. Add 2-3 drops of food coloring to the dough. Continue to knead the dough until the color spreads to your liking.
  4. Finish off your dough by adding an optional sprinkle of glitter.Your coral play dough can now be enjoyed. When not in use, place it in an airtight container. It should last for several weeks as long as it doesn’t have the chance to dry out.

Tangerine Lip Balm

Pin to Pinterest

We {heart} Lip Balm! This is one our favorites! You only need a small amount for each container so, we make them in bulk to give as gifts at Birthday Parties, Teacher Appreciation and have a stash on hand for ourselves too! We love to use this throughout the day and especially before bed at night. We use Essential Oils and only natural ingredients so there’s no artificial colors, fillers or flavors which puts my mind at ease when the kids want to use it, which is all the time! Give your lips a refreshing treat with this All-Natural Lip Balm. Tangerine and Lime Essential Oils both have great benefits for your body, especially in combination with the coconut & sweet almond oils. The results yield a very soft balm for your lips that leaves them feeling great!

TIP: Have all your ingredients set out ahead of time and read through these directions first so you have an idea of how to do this accurately.

The Tools:

  • Double Boiler
  • Measuring spoons & cups
  • A metal spoon
  • optional: a knife if you’re using the beeswax that comes in a big brick instead of the pastilles

Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. The best way to start is to have your containers already lined up, with the lids removed, as once the wax is ready, it’s a pain to have to rush and do it then.
  2. Next, melt your beeswax in the double boiler over medium heat. Once it starts to boil just put it on a low setting and leave it there as you stir the wax. Stir every few minutes
  3. until the beeswax is fully melted into a nice, smooth with no lumps. (Melting time will vary depending on which type of beeswax you’re using).
  4. Next, add in your coconut oil, and stir until melted fully into wax. Then add your sweet almond oil, & finally the lime & tangerine essential oils.
  5. Leave the water on the lowest setting to keep it warm while you fill, because if it starts to harden at all, you will need to put it back on the water and let it melt again. It will start firming up fairly fast, so I normally have to do this before I get to the end of it.
  6. Now you are just about set! Just let the balm set up for an hour or so & then you can apply your lids & labels!

Enjoy!

[url href=”undefined”][/url]

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 oz. beeswax
  • 2 tbsp. unrefined coconut oil
  • 1 tsp sweet almond oil
  • 15 drops of pure tangerine essential oil
  • 5 drops of pure lime essential oil (use your judgement as to how strong, but the 20 is fairly mild so you can always add another few if you wish)
  • Lip balm containers – I used the small tub type for this & it made 22 total.

Instructions

  1. The best way to start is to have your containers already lined up, with the lids removed, as once the wax is ready, it’s a pain to have to rush and do it then.
  2. Next, melt your beeswax in the double boiler over medium heat. Once it starts to boil just put it on a low setting and leave it there as you stir the wax. Stir every few minutes
