Podcast 36: New Year’s Resolutions
It’s that time of year again when most of us ring in the New Year with some sort of resolution stating what we’d like to change in the coming year. What’s yours this year? Some of the most popular resolutions we hear about are getting fit, losing weight, managing debt, eating right, quitting smoking, and volunteering more in order to help others.
On this week’s Cooking with the Moms podcast, we share our resolutions – can you believe we’ve both resolved to get more organized? – along with tips for helping you and your family stick to yours.
We also have two recipes to make eating right in 2009 easier than ever. The first is an easy-does-it recipe for Confetti Chicken Wraps, a makeover of fast food Mexican fare. Why drive into the drive through with your kids when you can make this yummy meal instead? Our second recipe for Smooshed Sweet Potatoes is a kid-friendly side dish that’s sure to help everyone get more veggies on the table.

Tell us about your New Year’s resolutions and how you plan to stick with them. We welcome any and all ideas. Most important of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I just received your cookbook for Christmas (yea!) so one of my resolutions is to prepare at least 2 meals per week from it, plus at least 1 side dish. First on my list is sweet potatoe fries! I hope that listening to the podcast will keep me motivated. I love to listen to you talk about the recipes each week – it keeps me inspired. Keep up the great work, ladies! Jennifer
I made Confetti Chicken Wraps for my family last night. It worked for both the vegetarians and the meat-eaters. Four out of five gave it a 10! I will definitely make it again.
