If you are a salmon lover and are looking for a new way to serve it to your family, I have an amazing recipe for you today. Are you familiar with American Spoon Foods? It is sort of a foodie lovers dream. They have all sorts of jams, preservers and grilling sauces available. The only downside is the price. Our favorite item to buy was the Apple Cider Grilling Sauce, but at almost $10 a jar, the price was just not reasonable.
This time of year is HUGE for NBA fans like myself, because the playoffs are in full action! We find ourselves hosting more parties with friends, or sometimes just the four of us. I am always trying to find new snack foods to serve during our parties and chips and dip are always a big crowd favorite. (who doesn’t love to dip?) Tostitos recently reached out to me to host a party using Tostitos Thins torilla chips. Available for a limited time only, these lighter, thinner…
This recipe comes from my mom. It utilizes some shortcuts, like a roaster chicken and frozen broccoli spears. It is ultra comforting and a delicious meal I loved growing up. If you would like to lighten it up, by all means feel free to use lower in fat alternatives. Chicken and Broccoli Casserole
A little while back I was on a mission to use up a bunch of food in my pantry before a big move. I had a full box of unopened corn flakes that I wasn’t sure what to do with. I knew I could use them for Cornflake Crusted Chicken, but I’d still have a ton leftover to deal with. When I came across this recipe at Sticky, Gooey, Cream, Chewy, which Susan called the ‘Holycraptheseareamazing Cookies,’ I knew I had hit the jackpot.
Calling my life as a busy work-at-home and stay-at-home mom challenging is quite the understatement. With a high-demand career, mountains of laundry giving me the evil eye and an infinite amount of dirty dishes forever piling up in the sink, I need all the help I can get when it comes to family meals! Fortunately, Hormel Natural Choice line of meats offer me quick and natural solutions for easy lunchtime meals that are also healthy. Yes, quick can be healthy! Hormel has given me, along…
Creamy Parmesan Tomatoes are a simple side dish consisting of roasted tomatoes topped with a creamy Parmesan spread. It is very customizable, just use whatever seasoning you are in the mood for, such as Italian, Cajun, or garlic. We used a blend fromPenzeys called Fox Point that had a mix of salt, shallots, chives, garlic, onion and green peppercorns. Tasty and easy. Ready for the recipe?
In my 36 years of life, I have tried several healthy shakes and smoothies. It is rare that I come across a brand that can balance the good stuff with a yummy flavor. Some are just too grainy or “grassy” (as I like to say) for my liking. Sambazon, the first company to bring the Acai superfood to North American, recently reached out to me to review their new Chocolate Almond Coconut Milk Protein Superfood Smoothie and Supergreens Superfood Smoothie. I have to admit, I was a…
