Instagram post 2179440105725553047_5535349719 Being a working Mom is hard and with two kids in sports and a toodler...Your girl be barely making it at times. What I've found that has helped me is meal prepping on the weekends. I know it sound crazy and you will be in the kitchen for a couple of hours but it will pay off. Getting off of work at 5pm and sitting in traffic for an hour or longer normally has me home around 6:30ish. I can't prepare dinner every night without doing it this way. Trust me. My family was eating dinner at 9pm when the kids should be in bed. I made this Four Cheese Risotto by @knorr a little #struggleious by adding salt, "pepper" (watch the video), garlic wine seasoning, cherry tomatoes, garlicky shrimp and spinach. . . . #thestrugglecook #struglecooksunite #cookingonsnap #snapcooking #momblogger #bloggermom #houstonblogger #foodie #browngirlblogs #strugglecook #foodblogger #momofboys #dinnerstruggles #blackgirlbloggers #houstonfoodblogger #boymom #blackswhoblog #blackfoodie #txblogger #blackgirlswhoblog #blackfoodbloggers #thatmomlife
Instagram post 2162896025457587784_5535349719 Here's that chilli that I made on Snapchat last week. Shout out to @thetribechronicles for informing me that "a la mode" means a side of ice cream. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Had no idea. So this is my take on an easy Creamy Chicken Crockpot Chili. The full video will be on the blog soon. #swipeleft . . . #thestrugglecook #struglecooksunite #cookingonsnap #snapcooking #momblogger #bloggermom #houstonblogger #foodie #browngirlblogs #strugglecook #foodblogger #momofboys #blackgirlbloggers #houstonfoodblogger #boymom #blackswhoblog #blackfoodie #txblogger #chili #blackgirlswhoblog #blackfoodbloggers #thatmomlife
Instagram post 2146200914938156097_5535349719 Y'all! I recieved this pasta sauce from @influenster and baabbbyyyy it is bomb.com and I am not just saying this because I got it for free! This sauce is actually seasoned and seasoned well. My family tore up this spaghetti to where I couldn't even get y'all an after picture. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Don't worry, I will be buying this sauce again. . . . #PastaSauceByRee #contest #complimentary @thepioneerwoman @Influenster.eats #thestrugglecook #struglecooksunite #cookingonsnap #snapcooking #momblogger #bloggermom #houstonblogger #foodie #browngirlblogs #strugglecook #foodblogger #momofboys #blackgirlbloggers #houstonfoodblogger #boymom #blackswhoblog #blackfoodie #txblogger #blackgirlswhoblog #blackfoodbloggers #thatmomlife
Instagram post 2126453695632705593_5535349719 Two things: 1 - The haters were trying to take my IG account today. Like literally, changed my profile pic to all black and was probably about to spam ya'll with a work from home scheme but I saved y'all and changed my password. 2 - Ever go to the Dentist and feel like, just throw the whole mouth away and give me Juila Roberts teeth. That is exactly what I told the dentist and had a much needed lunch date with my Sissy @nurse_carii at @shakeshack (We were cute and should have taken a photo but we didn't even think about it.) . . . #thestrugglecook #struglecooksunite #cookingonsnap #snapcooking #momblogger #bloggermom #houstonblogger #foodie #lunchstruggles #browngirlblogs #strugglecook #foodblogger #momofboys #blackgirlbloggers #houstonfoodblogger #boymom #blackswhoblog #blackfoodie #txblogger #blackgirlswhoblog #blackfoodbloggers #thatmomlife
Instagram post 2111809265239872827_5535349719 What Up Struggle Cooks! Dinner last night was sooo-oooo good! I was inspired from scrolling on IG to make this meal that we will call Cheesy Shrimp + Sausage Pasta. This meal from start to finish was about 30 minutes total to make. Peeling the bag of shrimp is really what took the most time. Shout out to @barillaus with these new quick pastas that I got from @heb with the buy one, get one coupon. No ad, just sharing the love. Let me know if you try this for your family. . . . #thestrugglecook #struglecooksunite #cookingonsnap #snapcooking #momblogger #30minmeals #bloggermom #houstonblogger #foodie #browngirlblogs #strugglecook #foodblogger #dinnerstruggles #momofboys #blackgirlbloggers #houstonfoodblogger #boymom #blackswhoblog #blackfoodie #txblogger #blackgirlswhoblog #blackfoodbloggers #thatmomlife

Instagram post 2102734700455121106_5535349719 Truth Moment: Your girl is tired #StruggleCooks like all the way. I've been working a full-time job for about 6 months now and while I enjoy my job...I feel like I'm failing at my other job at home. I'm searching for balance in a sea of to-do lists and sporting events for the kids. I want to try to make at least 2-3 meals on the weekend to ease into a routine. Getting home at 6:30 most days just isn't feasible to feed my family a meal I planned and attempt to record a #strugglecook video for y'all. Yes, Struggle Cook Mr. Can and does cook, but I actually want to cook since I've actually started learning how to cook. So, here is my start. A 20-30 minute meal, my Vegetable Medley for #MeatlessMonday with potatoes, butternut squash and broccoli. . . . #thestrugglecook #struglecooksunite #cookingonsnap #snapcooking #momblogger #bloggermom #veggies #houstonblogger #foodie #browngirlblogs #strugglecook #foodblogger #momofboys #blackgirlbloggers #houstonfoodblogger #boymom #blackswhoblog #blackfoodie #txblogger #blackgirlswhoblog #blackfoodbloggers #thatmomlife
