The PB and J Resurrected Posted by Rachael Wright Who doesn’t love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches? They are one of the staples that everyone seems to have grown up with. Often though the PBJ gets boring or the kids want something with a little more flavor, so here are some great options. Remember to always use a whole wheat bread to keep out those simple carbs. Veggie Cream Cheese and Cucumber: This is a great way to get some veggies in and if you don’t want to use the cream cheese you can always substitute for some delicious hummus. Hummus and Chopped Peppers: Protein, complex carbs, and veggies in this amazing meeting of the minds. Light Spreadable Cheese, Ham, and Grated Carrot: You won’t even bee able to notice the carrot in this delicious sandwich. Tuna Salad and Sliced Tomato: In an effort to keep the tuna salad light, opt for half of an avocado instead of mayonnaise then add in some spices and mustard for a great kick.

Food Archive for the ‘Food’ Category This post is sponsored by Bounty. Coined by my husband as “heaven balls,” cake pops have become quite a staple in the Bellgardt household. Whenever there is a special... Easter and carrot cake go so well together, don’t you think? Spring is finally here! A few months ago, I created a recipe for “Princess Bubble Gum Whoopie Pies” on the Duncan Hines’ website, which is a perfectly pink sweet treat for a princess... While the Christmas season has red colored foods galore, March brings everything green. Imagine a moist, tender chocolate cupcake topped with mint frosting that is sweet but also incredibly light and fluffy. Slow Cookers are the favorite appliance of many home cooks. A few months back, I created a fun recipe for “White Chocolate Popcorn Cupcakes” for Duncan Hines’ website, which is absolutely perfect for a fun family movie night!
Cinnamon Roll Rice Krispie Treats My new favorite Rice Krispie Treat… these, Cinnamon Roll Rice Krispie Treats! I love cinnamon rolls and I love Rice Krispie Treats so I had to find a way to combine the two, so I created these. I love dressing up classics with a new and exciting twist. I’d have to say I like these equally as much as cinnamon rolls (which is really saying something because a fresh warm cinnamon roll is one of my favorite foods). The incredible thing about these is that they taste just like a cinnamon roll but they can be made in a tenth the amount of time it takes to make a cinnamon roll. Cinnamon Roll Rice Krispie Treats Ingredients 1/4 cup butter 1/8 tsp salt 2 tsp unsulphured molasses 2 tsp cinnamon 1 (10.5 oz) bag miniature marshmallows 1 tsp vanilla extract 6 cups Rice Krispies Cereal 1 recipe Cream Cheese Frosting (recipe follows) Cream Cheese Frosting 1/4 cup butter, softened 4 oz cream cheese, softened 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 2 cups powdered sugar Directions Butter a 9x13 dish, set aside.

Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal Who says healthy food can’t taste absolutely, amazingly delicious? This oatmeal is incredible! I could eat it three meals a day =). I was so in love with the banana oatmeal that I made last week (I’ve been eating it nearly every morning since) that I decided I wanted to try more variations on oatmeal because I’m suddenly an oatmeal lover.

Loving, Caring and Sharing « With Marlene Flowers A pinata cake There is not much I like more than pinatas for birthday parties. Their festive nature just seems to make any day more special. I awoke up at 2am one night with this crazy idea that we could make a birthday cake that would hide treats inside, just like a pinata. I worked with my friend Athena to make it happen. To make the Piñata Cake you’ll need: two boxes of cake mix (any flavor), two containers of frosting (any flavor), an assortment of small candies (i.e. jelly beans, M&Ms, lollipops, snack-size chocolate bars, etc.), a 1.5 quart oven-safe bowl (greased and floured) and an offset spatula. Make cake mix according to box directions. Remove cakes from oven. Arrange a plate over the cake and flip over so that the cracked side faces up (the smooth side should be on the bottom). Lay a cake with the exposed side up (the side in which the dome has been removed). Place one cake on a cake plate/stand (feel free to use a cake board), hollowed out center facing up. Remove cake from fridge.
Bailey’s Cheesecake Cupcakes | Baked In For the past couple of years, I’ve done this thing at work where I try to make special cupcakes for everyone on my team’s birthday. They pick a flavor off of my menu and get a half-dozen to take home, and the rest of the batch is for everyone to enjoy. This was really easy when I was on a six-person team, slightly more difficult when we kept adding on new people and eventually got into the double digits – and on top of that, they ALL have summer birthdays. Seriously. I think there’s maybe one November, but June, July, and August are teeming with coworker birthdays. This shouldn’t really matter since I switched projects in April and am again on a much smaller team, but none of the people on my new team like sweets. Try is the operative word. These, for example, were for a June birthday. These are now on the menu for good – they’re such a fun departure from a standard cupcake. Bailey’s Cheesecake Cupcakes Preheat oven to 350 F.
