Lemon Ricotta Dessert Stacks
These Lemon Ricotta Dessert Stacks are a fun elegant dessert for the holiday season. At first glance you would think I used puff pastry for the flowers in between the lemon ricotta filling. Wrong.

The flour tortillas add a light fluffy crunchy texture that goes perfectly with the sweet but tart lemon ricotta filling. … [Read more...]
Grilled Bacon Tomato Cheese Sandwich
Grilled Bacon Tomato Cheese Sandwich is a delicious twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich. I don't know anyone who doesn't love a grilled cheese sandwich. From the time I can remember, I have been eating them. Then I started my first job where they served them with a slice of a tomato cooked inside. INSIDE. I'd never heard of that before. I was hooked after the first bite. Then I tried dipping it in my Broccoli Soup. SO GOOD. … [Read more...]
Eggnog Donuts
Eggnog Donuts have that delicious flavor that is so loved this time of year! These donuts couldn't be any easier to make. Who's ready to start their holiday baking and neighbor gifting? I like to keep things simple since we live in a tiny community and pretty much give treats to everyone. That's a lot of treats to make. Big batches of Christmas cookies, fudge or other edible Christmas gifts are what I lean towards. I love the non-food gifts but that can add up when gifting over 30 families. … [Read more...]

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Yogurt
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Yogurt is a great snack when you need a little boost. Using Greek yogurt and peanut butter gives you the protein you need to keep going. #SnackandSmile I have always loved yogurt. And snacking. Sometimes (most of the time) my snacking isn't as healthy as it should be. Chocolate, cookie, candy bar... you get the idea. But when I made this Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Yogurt, I knew my snacking could be better and tasty. I rarely eat yogurt as is. I am always adding … [Read more...]
Peanut Butter Cups
Peanut Butter Cups are a nostalgic candy that people just love! They make great treats for you and your family or as gifts around the holidays. You guys know how I love me some peanut butter. I will even eat it alone by the spoonful. I also love dipping a Hershey's chocolate bar into it for a quick cheat-version of these Peanut Butter Cups. I was thrilled when I was asked to review Sally McKenney's new cookbook Sally's Candy Addiction: Tasty Truffles, Fudges & Treats for Your Sweet-Tooth … [Read more...]
