Chocolate Pudding Party on the Porch!~#Summer of Pudding

Tweet

Did you know that yesterday was National Chocolate Pudding Day?! So what better day to have a Chocolate Pudding Party and celebrate! We had such a great time enjoying toppings, fruits, and a chocolate mousse that tasted amazing! We were slightly interrupted by a rather nasty afternoon thunderstorm, but the food was fantastic, the company was wonderful, and everyone had fun!

4th of July "I LOVE THE USA" Popsicles!

Tweet

I heard a rumor today that by Saturday the heat might start subsiding a little, here in the south! Well, I hope it's true, but to be on the safe side, I am filling my freezer with these 4th of July "I LOVE THE USA" Popsicles.  'Ya know, "just in case"!! Besides, what would the 4th be without the cool refreshment of popsicles! I can't imagine one without the other!! These pops are made with red and blue jello, and vanilla yogurt. They are easy to make, but not quick. Freezing them seemed to take forever and had me yearning for one of those blast chillers they use on Chopped! But they are worth the wait!

It is officially summertime! So that means it is also lemontime! Which is why I have a Lemon Filled Mini Bundt Cake w/a Lemon Yogurt Glaze  for you today! These little bundts are yellow cakes stuffed with a ring of lemon curd, and topped with a lemon drizzle. Lemon is the perfect fruit to represent summer, don't you think?

Chocolate Icebox Cake

Tweet

With the heat of summer bearing down on us right now in North Carolina, I thought the time was right for a Chocolate Icebox Cake! Simple to make, and yummy to eat, there is no baking involved. So your kitchen will not have to feel the heat, and neither will you! This icebox cake has 4 ingredients, and if you want to make it even simpler, you can only use three ingredients. Plus, you probably have most, if not all of them, in your pantry right now!

Southwestern Breakfast Bowl/#FoodieExtravaganza

Tweet

Are you a breakfast person? If you are not, this Southwest Breakfast Bowl will probably make you one!  I wasn't always big on eating breakfast, but over the last few years it has become the meal I look forward to the most. I love sitting down at the table with the morning sun streaming in through the window, planning my schedule for the day, and enjoying this tasty good-for-me Southwestern Breakfast Bowl. This breakfast bowl starts with a 1/2 of a sandwich thin, and builds up with cheese, eggs, and pepper. Add some side condiments and avocado slices, top with cheese and avocado chunks, and you have an incredible delectable way to start your day! And if you are short on time, don't worry. This breakfast bowl only takes about 15 minutes to prepare!
