Sweet Potato & Apple Casserole


This is one of my all-time favorite dishes that I have created. It's a dish that I'll make for dinner to go with some pork chops or I'll make it around the holidays to take to parties for dessert. This is a great fall dish but can be cooked all year-round for multiple occasions. Try it as a dessert or a side and let me know what your family thinks! 

Ingredients:
2-3 medium sweet potatoes 3-5 apples (I used gold delicious once and it was surprisingly good!) 1 tbs olive oil 1 tbs lemon juice 2 tbs cinnamon 1 tsp nutmeg 1 cup of walnuts/pecans --topping and optional
Directions:
1. Preheat oven at 350F. Peel the sweet potato and place it in the microwave with water to steam it. Then cut it up into cubes. 2. Wash and cut apples into cubes, sometimes I take the peeling off and sometimes I don't. This is usually a personal preference, so if you don't like the apple peeling, feel free to take it off. 3. Put apples and sweet potatoes in a bowl to mix with olive oil, lemon juice, 1 tbs cinnamon and nutmeg. 4. Put into a 1 qt baking dish and put the optional topping on top and the additional 1 tbs of cinnamon on top. 5. Bake at 350F and for about 20-30 minutes. You'll know when it's done when the top will start browning a tad.

Do you trust God?

Do you trust God?   Trusting God can be difficult at times especially when you want to rely on your own reasoning. But what happens when we don't have trust in him? We fear.   Have you were heard the quote, "Everything you want is on the other side of fear?"   When we fear, we don't change, we don't take risks and that limits us. If we never change or challenge ourselves to become better or do things we have never done--life will never get better nor will you get what you want. You will not reach your goals if you never do what you need to do to reach them.  When we fear, we are questioning chances that God gives us, but if we trust in him and do not fear, we have this amazing sense of power, love, and self disciple. (2 Timothy 1:7)  Live fearlessly and trust in God.  Takes chances.   Take risks.   Challenge yourself.   AND DO NOT FEAR.

Knowledge Blessings

I was blessed with the opportunity through Beachbody to listen to a live webinar of Brian Tracy. I got this blessing because I hit a goal as a coach that I try and hit every month called "success club." We get exculsive prizes for hitting this and this month I got a webinar with Brian Tracy. I had no clue who this was but knew that he must be awesome because Beachbody set it up. I tuned in and listened to what Mr. Tracy had to say, which was incredible. I wanted to share some of the things I learned. Goals Do you have a goal? Is your goal written down? Is your goal planned out? Does your goal have a deadline? Can your goal even meet the deadline? When trying to achieve goals, you have to figure out whether it is a clear goal or a fantasy. Is this something you are really planning for or is it something you are just going to shoot for and miss? Goals need to be clear, measurable, and have deadlines. Decide what you want to do, what you want, and maybe why you wa
