Check us out appearing on Connecticut Style.

We had so much fun cooking with them.

Here’s our story…

MWFD on TV

Sorry about having to just link up, for some reason I can’t get the video to embed…but go check it out.

Can’t wait to get to do it again!

My favorite part was when Brady ran off the set then came back a minute later announcing his reappearance with authority. Too funny!

QUESTION…..

We went apple picking for the first time this weekend and now I have a boatload. What’s your favorite apple recipe for me and the boys to try???

Start gathering your best recipes…send them our way. It’s going to be a contest, details announced tomorrow!

MWFDs guest spot on NBC & NY Daily News

September 3, 2010 by Alex aka Ma, What's For Dinner 39 Comments

Look out New York, here comes Ma!

Well look at us all fancy…check out our feature in the New York Daily News Website.

You can read the full article here at NY Daily News Moms and the City Blog

What a busy week we’ve had!

On Monday, Keegan started Kindergarten.

On Tuesday we rounded up Team Fitz and went on down to New York City to shoot a segment for New York Nonstops new show

Moms and the City and a Dad Named David

Man oh man are we tired but what a blast we had!

First Denise Albert, she’s one of the Moms from Moms and the City, and I got our food prep taken care of…

Then I did an interview with Denise and David Ushery

Next we got down to some good ol’ fashioned cooking.

I grabbed my little helpers

And we got cooking!

First up…Hungry Caterpillars instead of the pb&j version we switched things up with avocado and hummus spreads topped with cukes and tomato.

Next recipe? Muffin Man Pizzas

And finally…Twirly Whirly Pasta Salad

Denise’s son, he’s in the middle up there between Brady and Keegan, he’s not exactly an adventurous eater.

Well that boy couldn’t get enough of our muffin man pizzas!

He helped me make them and he gobbled them up (one with bell peppers and mushrooms on it much to his mother’s shock) and asked if we could do this every night!

Now if that’s not a satisfied customer I’m not sure what is!

The show will air here in the New York/New Jersey/Connecticut area sometime in September, but keep a look out for it on your local NBC station. I’ll let you know a definitive date when I get it.

I’ll be posting some segments from our finished pilot presentation soon. Keep your eyes peeled guys, Ma What’s For Dinner is hitting the airwaves!
