Orange Ambrosia Salad and Freschetta Pizza

Each week as I meal plan and prepare the week’s shopping list, I always like to plan for one or two easy dinner nights.  These are days when I either don’t feel like cooking, or we have a full schedule for the day and just don’t have the time for cooking.  But even when we’re having easy dinner nights, it’s still nice to serve high quality foods.  Enter Freschetta Pizza!

Kitchen Clean Up with Scotch-Brite

Cooking is one of my favorite household chores.  If you’ve checked out my recipe section, you know that I love making casseroles and baked side.  Not only is it delicious comfort food, but it’s also generally easy to make. However, these dishes are the hardest to clean, and washing dishes just happens to be my least favorite chore!  After dinner, I especially find it hard to break myself away to do dishes and clean up the kitchen, but it must be done!  Today I’m going to share my latest dish washing tool that’s taking my kitchen sink by storm.  Plus, I have a delicious recipe for Buffalo Chicken Macaroni & Cheese to share with, and I have some ideas to help keep your kitchen clean and clutter-free.

No Bake Banana Pudding Pie

June 21, 2016 Leave a Comment

Banana Pudding Pie and Slice

I LOVE banana pudding.  When I was growing up, it was one of my favorite sweets!  A few years ago, I ran across a great uncooked banana pudding.  I posted the recipe here, and to this day, it is still one of my site’s most visited posts.  I love banana pudding anytime of year, but I think of it as one of the official desserts of summer, so the other day, I decided to make it, but this time, I decided to do something a little different…a banana pudding pie!

June 16, 2016 2 Comments

Welcome friends! And Happy Friday.  As I perused last week’s link up, I came across some amazing summer recipes!  In particular, I was impressed by today’s three for three reasons: they include fruit (which is cool and perfect for summer), they are colorful in presentation, and they are also unique and creative.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Biz: My New Secret Weapon for Fighting Stains

Biz Secret Weapon

I’ve been using Biz now for two months, and I have to say, it is definitely a clothes saver! Previously I posted about BIZ, explaining how it works and why it’s effective.  And today I’ve got a couple of examples of the product in action!

But first, let’s quickly review how you use Biz.  Biz is a stain fighter that works to boost the power of your detergent by 80%.  There are two methods for using the product.  You can use it as a pre-treater: Just apply it to the stain, rub it gently, and then wait 5-10 minutes before washing.  And the second method is to use it as laundry additive: Just pour a cap in with your laundry.
