  • 2 Sheets White Tissue Paper
  • 1 Sheet White Construction Paper
  • 1 Sheet Pink Construction Paper

Directions

  1. Lay the two sheets of tissue paper flat on the table. One on top of the other.
  2. Set the roll of toilet paper in the center of the tissue paper with one hole at the top. Carefully tuck the ends of the tissue paper into the hole. Slowly work your way all the way around, until all the tissue paper is tucked in your bunny’s body.
  3. Now take your cotton balls and slightly pull them apart, so that they are nice and fluffy. Add three small dots of hot glue around the hole with all the tucked in tissue paper. Place the cotton balls on all three dots. This should now be covering the opening and creating the tail for the bunny.
  4. On the other end glue the plastic eyes about a half inch down form the edge of the roll.
  5. Cut out a few strips of white construction paper to make whiskers. Also cut out a oval shape nose from the pink constriction paper. Hot glue these at the center of the hole. Even with the opening being covered you will be able to slightly see it. Add a dot of hot glue and then lay the whiskers down first and then the nose.
  6. Take your black marker and draw a line under the nose making a J facing both ways.
  7. Last we need to make the ears. This can be a bit trickier and you can do it differnet that I have.
  8. Take the white construction paper and fold it in half. Then cut out a long oval shape that is flat at one end. By having your paper folded you sould end up with two ears after cutting. Fold them so that there is a cress down the center lenght ways. Now at the end of a slit about an in long. Then add a fold at the top of that slit. Fold the two pieces over. Then fold a fold at the top of that slit. Fold the two slit pices over each other, making somehting similar to the corner of a box. Tuck the ends of those pices up and down to lock them in place.
  9. Now on the top of the roll just above the eyes, glue an ear. Make sure that the boxed edge we made is facing the oppostie side of the eyes so you cannot see them when looking at the face.
  10. After they are glued in place carefully bend them over and glue them to the back end with a small dot of hot glue.

Add a touch of greenery to your home with these ready-to-print free fern botanical prints. 

Fern Botanical Printables

You know the Abba song Fernando? I know it, perhaps better than most. My father, Fernando, was born and raised in Cuba. He came to here as a young teen without his parents. A Peter Pan child with the new name American nick name of Fern (for short.) I think about my father’s journey often but I can never go too deep in my mind. It must have been incredibly scary leaving your home country, unable to speak a foreign language, and leaving home without your parents. If I put myself there, emotionally, I cannot handle it. I pull back in my head… anyone else a first generation American with a heroing account of their parents leaving their home country?

Now on to fern prints. I realize I got off topic. Ferns remind me of non other, my dad. These resilient plants are lush, beautiful and stand out. They grow best in tropical, moist climates or they can grow beautifully in your home with this freebie!  These fern prints are for your own use. I had a few spots in my home that needed some green and these prints were an excellent touch. Print them for your wall frame or print hem and use them on a bookshelf frame as an added pop of green.

Not many supplies are needed for this project.

Fern Botanical Printables Supplies:

  • Cardstock
  • Set of 3 fern botanical printables (see below)

You also will want some adorable frames. These are 8.5 x 11 vertical prints but can be trimmed to 8 x 10. I would recommend getting a nice farmhouse wooden frame or hanging them on letter size clipboards for a different look.

Easy Chicken Parmesan Bread

Easy-to-make Chicken Parmesan Bread with RAGÚ Simply Sauce. This Alfredo style french loaf uses a RAGÚ Simply Sauce with half the fat and calories made with cauliflower and milk. Disclosure: This post is sponsored by Mizkan. All comments and opinions are my own.

Easy Chicken Parmesan Bread

Chicken Parmesan Bread

I need easy dinners. I need easy dinners that please a diverse group. I need easy dinners, that please a diverse group and fill bellies.

As you all know, I am a mother of five. With are family with a large spread of ages, the twins being 19 months old and myself (the oldest) being a number that I will not share.  When cooking, my goal is to please everyone with one recipe. Baby food went out the window rather quickly in replacement of “what the family eats, you eat!” In addition to creating happy taste buds, I also look to fill tummies. Full bellies = happy kids (and a happy husband!) For example, the twins were barely on the growth chart when they were born. They went form 5 lb preemies to soaring above average on height and weight. This home fills stomachs. And don’t let the 19 month old age fool you; these growing boys can eat more than my 11 year old.

This recipe came to me from a friend and I quickly adapted to my easy, efficient lifestyle. Not many ingredients are required and I can quickly put the meal on the table getting the recipe form kitchen to plate in under an hour with very little prep. I don’t mind cook times, just don’t make me too involved in the preparation of the meal!

RAGU Simply Garlic Parmesan at Walmart

Did you know?

I have a secret ingredient – don’t tell the kids. We had the opportunity to work with RAGÚ Simply Creamy sauces and I was eager to create our own family version of my friend’s Chicken Parmesan Bread recipe.  I personally found it appealing that these sauces were made with milk and cauliflower, replacing traditional heavy cream.  It contains half the fat of RAGÚ’s Classic Alfredo Sauce, with the same delicious taste and texture. That sounds like a win to me!

Look at these simple ingredients.

Chicken Parmesan Bread Ingredients:

  • 1 jar of RAGÚ Simply Creamy Garlic Parmesan Sauce
  • Seasoned chicken (we used extra virgin olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper)
  • French bread
  • 1/4 Cup butter, melted
  • 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 Cups mozzarella cheese

Chicken Parmesan Bread Ingredients

You will need to precook your chicken, but I have no problem with that. As long as there is little prep from me in the kitchen. Look at these easy dinner recipe directions.

Chicken Parmesan Bread Directions:

Begin by preheating your oven to 375 degrees.

Add a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) to the bottom of a baking dish, place the chicken on top and top with a drizzle of EVOO.

Sprinkle Italian seasoning, salt and pepper onto the chicken and bake for 30-40 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.

Once the chicken is cooked, reduce your oven temp to 350 degrees.

Cut your chicken into small bite sized pieces.

Next, cut your French bread in half and then cut each half into half again ( a total of four pieces.)

Place each French bread piece with the crust side down onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

Mix your butter and garlic together and heat for 30 seconds in the microwave.

Brush the garlic butter evenly on the bread.

Add about 3 spoonfuls of RAGÚ Simply Creamy Garlic Parmesan with Cauliflower Sauce of each piece of bread and spread out evenly.

Add cut chicken breasts on top of the sauce.

Top each loaf with 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese.

Bake for 30-35 minutes at 350 and enjoy!

Eager to try this Chicken Parmesan Bread recipe yourself?

Save money with your Valpak envelopes. Look for a 75¢ coupon for RAGÚ Simply Creamy sauce and redeem it at your local at Walmart store. At $1.66, that brings the price of this secret ingredient to only 91¢. So half the calories and almost have the price! Sweet.

You could also try another one of the new RAGÚ Simply Creamy sauce flavors. We used Garlic Parmesan but feel free to replace that with their Alfredo sauce.

Pair your Chicken Parmesan Bread with a veggie.

I suggest serving with broccoli or another green. Cook the broccoli in the oven with your bread (350, 30 to 35 minutes) prepping with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper. You could use any extra sauce to serve over the broccoli, as well.

Kids Garden Journal

How is your summer going? We are doing okay. Since moving from Florida, I am grateful for hot days that still offer cooler evenings. We didn’t get much of that in the south. It was a hot day and night!

Summers in DC have evolved. I want from having very young kids, to elementary aged kids, to very young kids (again!) It has caused me to get creative with activity having a range of ages and desired activities. As my toddler has aged, and his little brothers trail behind him, we have kept to our home. It isn’t for lack of desire to go out, it’s for fear to go out.  Chasing after 18 month old twins is so hard – they split and run different directions. To appease my (almost) 3 year old’s heart, we have tried to find creative toddler crafts and science activities on Pinterest. I am so grateful for Pinterest, anyone else?

If you are trying to busy your little one’s summer bucket list, take a look at this Garden Journal. We suggest grabbing a clip board and a starter gardening kit for kids. Let us know what you plant!

…And mom, if you are not a friend of nature, remember this can be inside too!

Remarkable Teacher Gift Idea

Looking forward to a re-MARK-able school year!

Show some love to a teacher with this creative bookmark template. Add your favorite markers – dry erase, highlighters or Sharpies (our favorite), and gift to a teacher on the first day of school or at Open House.

Make a First Impression!

While it’s not needed, it’s a really cute way to enter a classroom during Open House or Meet the Teacher day. It makes a great first impression. Did you realize a teacher spends more hours in the day with your child than you get to during the school year. This is a great way to respect and affirmation for the person who will be caring for your child.

Random Acts of Kindness Ideas

Looking forward to a re-mark-able school year! This bookmark quote for teachers is perfect for an educator on the first day of school. It’s just a thoughtful way to say I we support you and are thinking about you. Speaking of Random Acts of Kindness Ideas, don’t forget to pay it forward during your child’s birthday!

Teacher Bookmark Gift Directions:

To make your teacher bookmark gift is pretty simple. First sign up for our email and then download our free printable. Cut out the bookmark. Add two holes using a hole punch in the center. Place your markers in the center of the bookmark. Tie off with twine.

I personally like to download my document and then upload it to Staples. I pick it up in their copy department and it saves me money on ink and cardstock.

To Order Your Printables at Staples*:

  1. Download and save your image from this post.  (Please note these images are for personal use only and cannot be sold or used for commercial use.)
  2. Sign in or create a Staples account on their print service page.
  3. Return to Staples print service page.

  10. Give your job a name.
  11. Make sure your project is single sided. The orientation should be portrait (vertical).
  12. I changed my media to 8.5×10 and the media to 67 lb cover stock (I prefer a card stock feel over printer paper feel.)
  13. Select add to cart.
  14. Proceed to checkout. You can choose to ship to your home or to pick up at your local store. Pay online and show your invoice when you pick up (I just show the order number on my phone at pick-up.) The order invoice will arrive in your email inbox.
