OK Sisters, this one will be quick. I am not feeling very wordy today : ). Sundays here at Shrinking Jeans were the days we posted recipes and a weekly menu plan. However, that is all changing with the new addition of Shrinking Kitchen. If you read regularly, then you already saw the post announcing [...]

When I walked into my mom’s house today, the yummy smelling goodness hit my nose like a ton of bricks. I walked into the kitchen and saw that my mom was cooking in the crock pot. As I’m sure all of you moms out there know, crock pots spell E-A-S-Y, which for those of us [...]

I’m a huge fan of seafood, especially shrimp. It’s one of my favorite types of seafood to cook at home because it’s quick, easy, and is a great fit with my Weight Watchers food plan. I recently came across this recipe for Dijon Shrimp. Unfortunately, I don’t remember exactly where I found it, but it’s [...]

One of my favorite holiday dishes is an old potato salad recipe that my grandmother used to make. Knowing my grandmother, it’s probably not a very healthy recipe. This year my mom and I decided we would try our hand at it and try to make it a bit more healthy because being able to [...]
