Raspberry Chocolate Waffle Cups Contest Finalist 1
Posted in: Breakfast Ideas, Contests, Dessert Ideas, Food Photos | 6 Comments
I was SO excited to make my first VitaMix Contest Finalist this morning! Being forced to make a chocolate entry as I only had one package of Deep Chocolate VitaMix (Chocolate Muffin Mix) (I’m waiting for my shipment to come in so I can make the rest),
So I chose Mary’s Chocolate Waffle cups. I thought they would make a fun Sunday breakfast treat for the toddler and I and they did. We had a blast!

Oh My GOSH! I did it, I finally did it. It took days reviewing, reading and drooling over the 60+ entries. Every idea was just genius! Really, just genius! I didn’t think it was going to be as hard as it was. I really didn’t.
I will be emailing all the winners shortly but I wanted to give you a preview of the winning ideas. Hopefully, I’ll get the VitaMixes in time to make all these treats by the 16th! For now you get titles only but stop back to see each idea featured with the recipe, photos and the toddler (and husbands) opinion!
Ok, ya ready? Here goes…
- Gooey Surprise Deep Double Chocolate Muffins
- Raspberry Chocolate Waffle Cups
- VitaBrownie Pizza
- Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins
- Spicy Peach Bran Muffins
Don’t they just sound SO good! I can’t wait to try them!

Mini Turkey Balls & Broccoli over Spaghetti Squash
Posted in: Dinner Ideas, Food Photos, Toddler Approved | 13 Comments
When the husband is away, I get to play!
I LOVE when it’s just the toddler and I for dinner. I get to experiment freely without trying to please someone who has completely different taste then I do.
Anyway, I had this idea of mini turkey meatballs. I thought they would be fun for me to make and easy for the toddler to eat. Originally, I was going to do a sweet and sour but I didn’t have enough ingredients so I went with what I had in the pantry.

Tortilla-Less Tortilla Soup - Video Post

Alright, I don’t know WHAT I was thinking. All I can say is my illness must have caused a momentary lapse of sanity resulting in me thinking I could actually cook an entire dish on video with a distracting toddler roaming around.
Just be prepared for Diego sunglasses, tent talk, the Tabasco incident, piano playing and me messing up as usual. At one point, I try to show you the dish off camera. I’m a mess! But hey, even the stomach flu doesn’t keep me away from the weekly video! ;~P They are too much fun! That being said, if you aren’t prepared to see me fumble for 20 minutes, the recipe is Click here to continue reading Tortilla-Less Tortilla Soup - Video Post >>>

I’m patting myself on the back for this one. It is one of my absolute favorite creations and today I actually had other taste testers besides the husband. Taste testers who are open and willing to try new things and they LOVED it! Man I love cooking for people who actually like to eat.

Printing Recipes – Just a note!
Posted in: Site News | 2 Comments
I just wanted to write a quick note about printing my recipes. I’ve been getting some comments and emails about adding a printer friendly version. And I’m happy to say, I don’t have too!
Let me explain….
I have a created this site to have a separate printing style sheet. Which means if you try and print any recipe/post it will print cleanly with no images, ads or navigation.
So please, feel free to print away!

Polenta Pizza – Video Post
Posted in: Appetizer ideas, Food Photos, Pasta Ideas, Pizza Ideas, Snack Ideas, Video Posts | 23 Comments
Christy gave me this idea after she watched my Zucchini Pizza Bites Video. I have to admit, I’m new to polenta. I actually bought it for the first time to try this idea a few weeks ago.
Tonight, after work and then grocery shopping the toddler and I hit the kitchen. He was very willing to help and made his very own Polenta Pizzas (see below). :~)
