?? hi, Phi here, and I did a thing today ✂️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve had short hair before, but not for the past decade! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Stress? Hormones? #momlife (wide sweeping arm gestures) everything, and my hair was starting to not feel great. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Post haircut and it feels like a huge weight has been lifted and I feel like “me” again. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I put an “ask me anything” on my stories today and have been loving the more personal questions you guys have been asking about behind the scenes and mom life. So here I am, sharing ? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I got my blue light blocking glasses on and an extra big smile and I’m just excited about life. I have the tendency to over-smile when I’m happy, so here’s to cheesing it up ? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What’s made you happy lately? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Unrelated except for the fact that it’s something I enjoy so much, the weekly Love List is live!! https://sweetphi.com/love-list-32-date-night-idea-and-our-favorite-blankets/ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sweetphi #haircut #bluntbob #selfcare #workingmomlife #love #glasses #reallife #coffeetime #coffeebreak #cookbookauthor #lists #sweetphiblog #momof3 #momoftwins #twinmom #favoritethings

It’s a cold winter month here in Wisconsin and that means that seasonal food is hard to come by if you haven’t already planned in advanced and canned or frozen anything. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But I’ve come up with a delicious list of what to cook in February for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and desserts! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Clickable link in profile ?? https://sweetphi.com/what-to-cook-in-february/ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sweetphiblog #february #seasonal #whattocook #mainmeals #breakfast #lunch #dessert #snacks #sidedish #recipes #foodblog #reciperoundup #wintermeals #seasonalrecipes #instayum #foodblogger #foodblogeats #sweetphiblog #familymeals #kidapproved #recipedeveloper #pickyeaterapproved #familymeals #recipedeveloper #cooking

You know those busy weeknights when you don’t have more than 15 minutes to get together a delicious dinner everyone will love? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Veggie burgers to the rescue (I particularly love @morningstarfarms ones)! My non-vegetarian, burger-loving husband even gives his stamp approval to the different versions I've created. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In the post, I share three different burger options (all 15-minutes or less!) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These burgers could totally be made with either meat or a meat alternative! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. Classic cheeseburger 2. Southwestern burger 3. Southern chicken burger ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Clickable link in profile ?? https://sweetphi.com/3-15-minute-vegetarian-burger-dinner-recipes/ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #meatlessmondayideas #vegetarian #meatless #veggieburger #plantbased #healthy #easyrecipe #easymeals #15minutemeals #blackbeanburger #dinner #dinnerrecipe #sweetphiblog #recipe #lunch #quickrecipe #food #morningstarfarms #meatlessmonday #recipedeveloper #burgers #veggieburgers #burger #foodphotographer #milwaukeefoodphotographer #milwaukeeblogger #burgertoppings #15minutesorless

You know what I’m dreaming of??⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Having these waffles for breakfast every day ? This recipe was born from having no eggs in the house but a craving for waffles and we always have the freezer stocked with some.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My favorite topping lately: cashew butter, banana and cinnamon. HOW ABOUT YOU? What are your favorite toppings?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ P.S. With this recipe, you can also use the batter for pancakes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ P.P.S. Freeze the waffles/pancakes and when you’re ready to eat them, simply throw in the toaster to defrost, add syrup and enjoy ?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Clickable link in profile ?? https://sweetphi.com/best-eggless-waffles-recipe/⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #wafflerecipe #makeahead #freezermeals #sweetphiblog #breakfast #breakfastideas #breakfastrecipe #recipes #brunch #brunchideas #brunchrecipes #morningmeals #breakfastandbrunch #breakfastmeals #waffles #pancakes #recipe #eggless #eggfree #wafflerecipes #freezermeal #vegan #veganwaffles #veganrecipe #egglessrecipe #recipeseveloper #weekendcooking

Did you know that every Friday I post a 5-ingredient recipe? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I call it Five-Ingredient Fridays, and I’ve been sharing 5-ingredient recipes for years!!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I even wrote a cookbook about 5-Ingredient recipes! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Simple recipes can be such a time saver in the kitchen, and are great as something to build upon. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For example, there's a recipe in the cookbook for 5-ingredient sloppy joes. It's a favorite in our house. When I'm making it, sometimes I'll add in a chopped up bell pepper, or I'll use ground turkey instead of ground beef. I've even used tofu crumbles to make it vegetarian. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Point is, these recipes are SO GOOD, and I use this cookbook and these recipes ALL.THE.TIME! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I think you'll love them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Also, you can check out this weeks' Five-Ingredient Friday recipe on the blog today...it's a good one! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ?? https://sweetphi.com/5-ingredient-breakfast-tacos-recipe/ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Pic of me via ? @cassierosch Pic of ? @philiakelnhofer ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #5ingredientsorless #5ingredientrecipe #fiveingredientfridays #fiveingredientfriday #cookbook #smallbusinessowner #milwaukeesmallbusiness #milwaukeecreative #sweetphicookbook #5ingredientrecipes #5ingredients #easyrecipes #fastandeasyrecipes #recipes⠀#foodphotographer #commercialfoodphotographer #milwaukeefoodphotographer #cookbookauthor #cookbookphotographer #mealprep #mealprepping #workingmom #tacos #breakfasttacos #mealplanning #mealprep #sweetphiblog #familymealideas #breakfast #15minutemeals

What's been saving my ? sanity in the mornings?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Make ahead/freezer breakfasts! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It takes the stress out of figuring out what to make and then taking time to cook...because chances are I'm 3 minutes late to a zoom meeting ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Why 3? Who knows, that seems to be my number lately lol, #sorrynotsorry - I'm busy getting an extra 'goodbye' hug from Ben and kissing the babies one more time...even though I'm only going to the other room, for an hr, I'll take it!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This freezer frittata is being made on repeat - it's sausage and salsa flavor and totally customizable!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ??You can pack it ahead for a great grab and go meal prep breakfast!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You can find the clickable link in my bio https://sweetphi.com/freezer-frittata-recipe-with-salsa-and-sausage/⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #freezermeals #makeahead #onthegobreakfast #mealprep #grabandgomeals #breakfast #brunch #mealprepbreakfast #breakfastideas #foodphotographer #instafood #instayum #foodblogger #foodblogeats #sweetphiblog #workingmom #theeverymom #easyrecipe #frittatarecipe #familyrecipes #eggs #healthyfood #mealprepideas #mealprepbreakfastideas #mealpreprecipes #breakfastfood #recipedeveloper #glutenfreebreakfast #glutenfreerecipes

I always wanted to incorporate collagen protein powder into my diet, but I could always taste the meaty collagen flavor (gross, right?)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I tried mixing it in yogurt, coffee, smoothies etc. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Then...I saw someone put collagen protein powder in energy bites and knew I had to try that! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It worked!! Flavor/texture of the collagen protein powder is totally masked, and these no bake cookie energy bite snacks were born!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They’re made with cashew butter, and seriously, they’re so so good!! They taste like a cookie!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Clickable link in profile ?? https://sweetphi.com/no-bake-cookies-recipe-collagen-protein-snack-bites/⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #collagenpowder #collagenrecipes #collagenprotein #healthysnacks #healthyeats #sweetphiblog #snacks #healthyrecipe #snack #snackidea #healthysnackidea #glutenfreesnack #glutenfreerecipe #glutenfreesnacks #sweetphiblog #foodblogeats #mealplanning #mealprepping #mealprepidea #makeahead #energybites #snackrecipe #healthyeats #collagenpeptides #nobakecookies #healthycookies #cookiesrecipe #cashewbutter
