So school is closed today for Kellen and it reminds me of when I was a kids we would wish and wish for a snow (in this case ice) day, but as a adult it means the morning scramble unless you can stay home for the day as well. The joys of being a parent who works out of the home....
Today I am sharing a perfect cold weather meal, Southwest Chicken Spaghetti. This meal is really easy and my little guy loved it. The recipe is weeknight easy and can be made n advance only leaving you to top with the onion topping and get in the oven. I adjusted the amounts of some of the ingredients from the original and used ground chicken of pieces of chicken. Sometimes I do not like how chicken reheats and like the ground chicken in some casseroles. The crunchy onions are the cherry on top and I usually have to fight Ron and Kellen off before they eat them all off the top of the casserole- sneaky boys!
Did you watch Obama's address last night? It was really moving and makes me miss him already. He and his family are intelligent and classy.  It brought tears to my eyes because it reminded me what an honor it was to work for the House of Representatives during the passage of the Affordable Care Act. Thank you, Mr. President. 
Tonight I am hoping to get to Pure Barre as long as the ice stays away! Happy hump day folks!

    I’m definitely craving this now. Looks so good! Sounds like an easy weeknight dinner. Can’t wait to try it. Too bad you can’t eat through your computer.
