In many ways, a watermelon is a lot like a Christmas gift: You’re pretty sure you’re going to like what’s inside, but you’re never really sure until you open it. Unlike a Christmas gift, however, with a watermelon, you’ll like what’s inside 100 percent of the time. (I’m about 75 percent with Christmas gifts .) Since you can’t stealthily peel back the wrapping of a watermelon in the grocery store to sneak a peek at what’s inside, you’ll have to employ some different techniques to determine its “ripeness.” http://www.whataboutwatermelon.com/index.php/2009/05/how-to-choose-the-right-watermelon/

July 18, 2011 You know what? It isn't that hard to make healthy pizza. Pizza would always be pretty healthy if we chose not to put 1/2 pound of cheese on every slice. Here on Snack Girl, I have featured English muffin pizzas , Triscuit pizzas , and even made over a frozen pizza to get readers to try a healthier version of pizza. http://www.snack-girl.com/snack/portobello-mushroom-healthy-snack/

Sloppy Joe Recipe

September 6, 2012 Anyone else like sloppy joes? This sandwich consists of ground meat, onions, and mystery sauce from a can served on a bun. My mother used to "cook" these for us - and I had forgotten about them until recently. I found out that my husband, who is an Australian citizen, has never had a sloppy joe. I felt for sorry for him.
I am not a big fan of anything spicy, but the picture of these looked so good and I have loved every recipe I have tried from here, so I decided to try them. I removed all the seeds and membrane as directed above. They are wonderful! I have been looking for something different to serve as an easy appetizer for movie night - this is it. Great pepper and cheese flavor without the spice. http://www.tammysrecipes.com/easy_baked_jalapeno_poppers

So last week, with the beautiful weather we've been having here in Southern Minnesota, I decided to make our most favorite sandwiches ever! Mike found the recipe in a magazine and asked me to make them and they've been in regular rotation ever since. So I'm going to share and hope that whoever stumbles upon this little blog and decides to try them likes them just as much as we do! Grilled Teriyaki Pineapple Chicken Sandwiches I'm not going to give specific amounts because you can adapt it to however you need to make to suit your needs

Our favorite sandwiches ever!

If you have processed cheese laying around, you should definitely make this. (I know, I know--I'm supposed to be into healthier cooking and Velveeta is not considered good for you. But we all need a little processed cheese in our lives. And if you snub your nose at that....you're no friend of mine. AAAAND, you're totally missing out.)
