Success Rice

Rice is one of my favorite kitchen staples!  I love serving it as a side, and I especially love to use it in casseroles!  But with some rice products you have to be careful, or your rice won’t be good and done.  But Success® Boil-in-Bag Rice makes it easy to cook up perfect rice!

The product comes in White and and Whole Grain Brown Rice varieties, and you can find it in 14 oz and 32 oz package.  And because Success® Rice is precooked,  your cook time is just 10 minutes from bag to bowl!  From there, you can add any number of ingredients to create your favorite recipe!

I love Manwich Night! It’s definitely one of my favorite Easy Weeknight Meals.  I grew up eating the Original Manwich, but I recently became familiar with the other varieties:  Thick & Chunky and Bold. If you’ve seen these in your local store, and have been curious, I’d definitely tell you they are worth a try.

Manwich Night

If you love the red and green peppers in Original Manwich, then you will definitely love the Thick & Chunky version.  And if want something with no peppers (perhaps something for a picky child), then you’ll want to try the Bold. I actually thought the Bold would be more spicy, but it’s really got more of what I’d call a “tangy” taste to it.  But whatever it is, it is super yummy! Manwich Night  How do you like Manwich?  When I was growing up, no Manwich was complete without a nice slice of cheese!  And recently I’ve tried adding mayo and pickles, along with the cheese.  It makes for a sandwich that can’t be beat!  And it’s great with any variety of Manwich Sauce.

My husband has also introduced me to Manwich Pie (Manwich over corn chips), and after doing a little research, I’ve found a ton of great Manwich Recipes.   One recipe I definitely plan on trying is the Saucy Meatloaf featuring Manwich.  And I also found Sloppy Joe Meatballs! Yum!Manwich Night

You can even use the sauce to make Sloppy Joe Tacos:

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef

1 can Manwich sauce

8 taco shells

1 bag shredded lettuce

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

sour cream

Directions: Brown ground beef and add in Manwich sauce as directed.  Spead meat & sauce evenly over hard or soft tortilla shells.  Top with cheese, lettuce, and sour cream. Enjoy!

No Bake Pumpkin Recipes

Hello everyone!  I’m so excited to be seeing everyone’s ideas for the fall season.  It’s giving me a lot of inspiration, and hopefully I’ll get out my fall decorations and do some fall baking next week.  For this week’s party, I was especially overwhelmed by all the pumpkin and apple recipes….surprise! surprise!  But I was able to narrow our features down to 3 No Bake Pumpkin Recipes, which all look amazing!

MMs

Parties and holidays give us a great excuse to get creative with decorations and food.  But you don’t always need a special occasion to create fun and festive recipes! If you have simple ingredients on hand like M&M’s™ candies, you can turn a simple movie night into a fun-filled occasion with movie themed snacks.  Last week I used M&M’s to turn some plain ole’ sugar cookies in to some M&M’s Sugar Cookies inspired by Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier (out now on DVD and Blu-Ray).

MMs at Walmart

At our local Walmart there is an entire shelf, filled from top to bottom with M&M’s products!  Which ones doe you like?  The original and the minis are my favorites, but you could use any variety in today’s recipe.

Walmart also has a $5 off coupon for any two M&M’s products (15.4 oz or larger) and Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier DVD.  (Movie, snacks, and a deal…it’s a win-win all the way around!) [Read more…]

Frozen Raspberry Pie

Today we have our final guest post of the summer series!  Today’s comes from Amy at Joyful Daisy and she is sharing a delicious looking Frozen Raspberry Pie.  I don’t know about you, but I love pie any time of year, and this recipe certainly sounds like a dessert for all seasons!

Frozen Raspberry Pie

This delicious Frozen Raspberry Pie is a delightful mix of flavors and textures. The raspberries combined with lemon juice are so fresh, the whipped egg whites and whipped cream are so light and fluffy, and the toasted almonds in the crust adds the perfect amount of crunchiness. The other thing I love about this pie is that it can be made ahead of time. [Read more…]

Kid’s Desserts: Triple Chocolate Sundae Cake

Back to School with Cool WhipWhen I was a kid, I could hardly wait for an after school snack.  Often this meant stopping by to get a hamburger or ice cream on the way home from school, but there was nothing like coming home to eat a homemade dessert!  My dad used to make such yummy recipes, and he made this one chocolate layer cake that was to die for!

The Cool Whip Icing was definitely the star of the cake, so today I’m sharing this icing with you, so that you can see how adding a little Cool Whip can turn your ordinary dessert in to an extraordinary dessert! [Read more…]

Game Time with Tyson Deli Wings

When it comes time for game day, we always have a lot of “man food” on hand.  I love putting out a spread of appetizers on the counter just before the start of the first game of the day, and then going back later at dinner time.  It generally makes for an easy day as far as cooking, and it allows me to watch the games with my hubby without having to spend all day in the kitchen.  Hot Wings are definitely on my top 5 list of game day buffet items!  But if you want to keep it easy, you usually have to order out, which can get expensive, or you have to buy a frozen product, which just doesn’t compare with something fresh.

OR… You can stop by the Walmart Deli!  The Walmart Deli serves up a variety of bone-in and boneless wings for your football party! [Read more…]

Today we have a few of those recipes; I’m calling them breakfast treats, as they all look delicious and sweet!

And to go along with this week’s breakfast theme, I have an awesome giveaway for you!  My Mom’s Morning Essentials Giveway just started up, and it features several varieties of coffee, along with creamer, cereal, and other items from our friends at CVS! [Read more…]

Game Day Food: Roll Tide! Strawberry Pretzel Parfaits

Jello University Kit

My family is very excited for football season to be starting!  My husband has already explained to me that the television station will be glued to the SEC Network, so that if I don’t want to watch sports, I can plan accordingly and go to the next room. Haha!  But actually I really enjoy football and I especially love watching our team the Crimson Tide!  And I also look forward each week to game day food!

We usually order out or make something early that will last the day, and game day food is generally “man food.”  We like appetizers, especially chicken fingers and wings! But we also sometimes go for things like meatballs, sausage balls, cocktail weenies, cheesesticks, cheese fries, or chips and dip.  And other times we like simple meals like sub sandwiches, grilled burgers, chili dogs, pizza, and barbecue sandwiches. Yes, we do love to eat!

As much as I love all the salty and spicy goodness of game day, I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t crave something sweet!  So today I am sharing a simple dessert that you can prepare to make your game day even sweeter!  I took my recipe for strawberry pretzel salad and turned it in to a kid-friendly game day treat: Strawberry Pretzel Parfaits.  And I added a little extra team spirit to the treat using Jell-O University Molds!
