Easy Breezy and Delicious!! 1 Cup Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt 1 Stick of butter (1/2 cup) 1 Cup of Bisquick Mix. Bake on 350 until golden. This will fill 12 muffin cups, but they tend to be on the small side. I double it.

My 8yo and I made these last night on a whim. We had all the ingredients in our pantry. They are delicious and healthy. My boys loved them. Pumpkin Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars Ingredients : scant 1/2 cup peanut butter scant 1 cup pumpkin puree 2 cup oats (whole rolled; not quick cook) ( I used quick and it still worked) 1 cup brown sugar, packed ( I used Splenda brown sugar) 1/2 cup white sugar ( I used Splenda) 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract 1/3 cup each of add-ins: white chocolate chips, Craisins, or whatever your heart (or pantry) desires ( I used Craisins, chocolate chips, walnuts, and coconut) Directions : Preheat oven to 350-degrees F. Combine all ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir by hand. Spread batter (it will be pretty moist) into a foil-lined and sprayed 8x8 or 9x9-inch baking dish. Bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The bars may still look underdone, but that...

I have been making my own salad dressing. It is healthier and honestly, I have a hard time eating the low fat salad dressings from the grocery store. They are just not good to me. Anyways, most of you have probably made this before but we LOVE it. :) 1/4 Cup of Balsamic Vinaigrette 3/4 Cup of Olive Oil 1 Garlic Clove(minced) I mince fresh garlic and mix all of these together. You can also add salt if you want. Love this recipe!!

Hey Everyone! I know I need to do some updating on the blog. I am going to try to get to that soon. I promise! But I wanted to let you all know that I added two buttons for your use. One is the "Pin It" button. If you have a Pinterest account you can "Pin" our recipes. :) Also, I added a search bar where you can now search certain keywords so hopefully you can find any recipe you need a little faster. Hopefully both of these are helpful!! We will be adding more recipes soon!!!!

Hey Friends!! This recipe is super easy and quite good. Beware that it is a little spicy. If you like wings or anything buffalo style then you will like this. Buffalo Chicken Chili Ingredients : 2 chicken breasts (cooked & shredded or raw & whole) I used 3 total. 1/2 bottle Frank's Buffalo Sauce 1 (15.5-oz) can beans (garbanzo, black, pinto, whatever!) I used garbanzo. 1 large sweet onion, chopped 2 (15-oz) can tomato sauce (oops! I think I only used 1 can) 1 can cream-style corn 1 cup salsa 2 jalapenos, seeded and chopped I used sliced jalapenos in a jar. Directions : Dump everything into the crockpot, and stir well. Cook on low for 8-10 hours. If your chicken was raw when you put it in, take it out after about 8 hours, shred it, and then stir it back into the chili. Enjoy!

I call this "Donna's Hot Chocolate" because my mom has been making this since I was an infant. We have it every Christmas morning, but of course we make it more times than once a year. This doesn't have specific measurements because you make it to your taste. Milk (We even use skim and it is good) Hershey's Cocoa Sugar Marshmallows Heat your milk in a pot on the stove slowly. If the milk burns it is bad news. Stir occasionally. As it gets warmer add your sugar and cocoa. I like mine to be a very light brown and add sugar to taste, but remember once you add the marshmallows it gets sweeter. Last, but not least, add the marshmallows until they melt in one layer on top. Enjoy!!

A few weeks back I read this recipe on a friends(Jennifer Latham) blog. It sounded so yummy but today was the first day I remembered it while I was at the grocery store. I bought the ingredients and let me tell you...I could drink one of these several times a day! It is SO good!!! To top it off, my fridge does not make crushed ice...so I went to Sonic and bought some of their crushed ice. It makes this drink even better. PLEASE go get the recipe for this if you like fruity drinks. Yum! Here's what you need: 1 bottle cranberry juice (I used the Light Cranberry juice to have less calories) 1 container frozen limeade 1 bottle Fresca 1 lime crushed ice • In a pitcher, mix frozen limeade with 4 and 1/3 container (use the limeade container) cranberry juice (you'll use the juice instead of water, like the container calls for) • Fill your favorite glass with crushed ice • Fill the glass half-way full with cranberry/limeade mix • Fill the glass the rest of the way with Fresca • Squeeze ...

Another favorite of our best bites... If you're like me, it's hard to get my husband to take me seriously when I say that we are having a salad for dinner. This one did not disappoint!
