Spicy Deviled Eggs

April 19, 2014 ·

I am a brand ambassador for MIRACLE WHIP through the Mom It Forward Blogger Network. While I am compensated for my time, all stories and opinions are my own.

Spicy Deviled Eggs are a quick, easy and delicious way to use up those decorated Easter eggs. They put a fun, tangy and spicy twist on a classic deviled egg recipe and take only 15 minutes to prepare!

As we are creating new Easter traditions with our young kids, there are certain classics that are timeless. Easter baskets, Easter egg hunts and decorating Easter eggs. I remember dying Easter eggs was always one of my favorite Easter activities as a child (after eating all of my chocolate eggs before breakfast, of course!). I also remember my grandma had the best recipe to transform those Easter eggs into something amazing. She had a quick and easy deviled egg recipe using MIRACLE WHIP (always her secret ingredient) that was an Easter classic and always a hit. These Spicy Deviled Eggs are very similar to her recipe, only they have the addition of jalapeno peppers to give a little spicy kick!

April 16, 2014 ·

Chocolate Coconut Milk Pudding is a smooth, rich chocolaty pudding made using coconut milk, takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and then chills in the refrigerator until set. {gluten free, can be vegan using dairy-free chocolate}

Move over box pudding! This homemade Chocolate Coconut Milk Pudding not only tastes better than its pre-made counterpart, but it is so easy to make! Simply start by whisking the dry ingredients in a sauce pan. Next stir in coconut milk, bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer until thickened. Remove from heat, add chopped chocolate and vanilla extract and stir until chocolate is melted. Pour the pudding into serving dishes, cover with plastic wrap (touching the pudding surface) and then chill. It could not be any easier or tastier!…

Broccoli, Cheddar & Egg Hashbrowns Cups

April 11, 2014 ·

Broccoli, Cheddar & Egg Hashbrowns Cups are shredded potatoes baked in a muffin tin and then filled with broccoli, cheddar cheese and eggs. These are a perfect addition to your Easter brunch menu!

I have been eagerly anticipating Easter for a while now – coming up with the perfect gifts for Easter baskets, planning an afternoon with the bunny and working on our Easter brunch menu. While I still have to get a couple more things for the baskets, our bunny play-date is next Saturday and the brunch menu is complete. We were missing two brunch essentials – hashbrowns and muffins. So to make our menu complete, I decided to combine the two by making muffin cups out of shredded potatoes, and then filling the cups with a cheesy, broccoli egg mixture. I headed to Walmart, picked up a bag of Ore-Ida Shredded Hash Brown Potatoes, and got straight to work! The result was a very simple to make Broccoli, Cheddar & Egg Hashbrowns Cups.

Avocado Buffalo Chicken Wraps #WeekdaySupper

April 2, 2014 ·

Avocado Buffalo Chicken Wraps are a spicy buffalo chicken salad packed with lots of vegetables and made with avocado and Greek yogurt instead of mayo. Enjoyed warm or chilled, this wrap is healthy, quick and easy ~ perfect for a weeknight!

Avocado Buffalo Chicken Wraps put a fun and unique twist on your everyday chicken salad. Shredded chicken, drenched in a light, seasoned buffalo sauce, spices things up, while an avocado and Greek yogurt mixture replaces the mayo. For the vegetables, I used shredded carrots and chopped broccoli (I’m not a fan of celery, but if you are, some chopped celery would be a tasty addition as well). A little blue cheese crumble would be an excellent topping as well.

Broccoli Cheddar Quinoa Bites #WeekdaySupper

March 27, 2014 ·

Broccoli Cheddar Quinoa Bites are bite-sized, protein-packed mini mac and cheese muffins made with quinoa, broccoli and cheddar cheese. Easy to make, great for kids! {gluten free}

While my family is generally open to most new recipes I make, as with all things ‘new’ there can be a bit of hesitation. Even though we have quinoa on a semi-regular basis, for whatever reason it is still perceived as “new.” However when combined with a favorite flavor combination (broccoli and cheddar cheese) and made into a shape that is always popular (bite-size mini muffin), all hesitation seems to disappear. Understandably so, these Broccoli Cheddar Quinoa Bites are addictive! They are like little mac and cheese bites, only made healthier with quinoa and broccoli….

Burgundy Porcini Risotto

March 20, 2014 ·

Burgundy Porcini Risotto is a rich, cheesy risotto made with porcini mushrooms and red wine. While risotto may seem intimidating, it truly is very easy to make and definitely something worth trying.

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post by Gallo Family Vineyards Hearty Burgundy via the Mom It Forward Blogger Network. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

One of the key components of risotto is wine. People always say the wine you use to cook should be a wine you enjoy to drink. I typically make risotto with white wine, but generally prefer to drink red wine over white. So I decided to experiment and take one of our favorite risotto recipes and use one of my favorite red wines – Gallo Family Vineyards Hearty Burgundy. The Hearty Burgundy is a bold, flavorful wine that goes beautifully with the Parmesan cheese, mascarpone cheese, and porcini mushrooms in this dish. I decided to leave out the spinach from the original recipe, because I really wanted the red wine to shine through. The result was an amazing, cheesy, earthy risotto with the rich flavors from the Hearty Burgundy harmonizing with each bite….

Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies are a healthy breakfast treat made with simple, wholesome ingredients such as bananas, almond butter, and oatmeal. {vegan}

We are always looking for quick and easy breakfasts – something healthy that can be eaten on-the-go. And when that means eating (healthy) cookies for breakfast, even better! When I stumbled upon these vegan breakfast cookies, I could not get to the kitchen fast enough to whip up a batch. Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies are really easy to make, using ingredients commonly found in the pantry. They taste even better the second day (or third, if they last that long). Since they are so moist and chewy, I stored them in the refrigerator. They were really tasty chilled as well! From the bananas to the oatmeal to the almond butter, Almond Butter Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies are like a healthy bowl of oatmeal in cookie form….

Chipotle Quinoa Chili is packed with heart-healthy proteins from quinoa and beans, and a smokiness from the chipotle chiles. Made in 30 minutes, perfect for a weekday supper! {vegan, gluten free}

This winter has been exceptionally cold and snowy, with weather extremes everywhere it seems. For me, nothing combats these winter chills quite like a tasty bowl of chili. This Chipotle Quinoa Chili is healthy comfort food that will warm you up from the inside out. There is a little heat from some green chiles, a subtle smokiness from the chipotle chiles and all around goodness from the protein-packed beans and quinoa. I had never had quinoa in chili until this recipe, and it is a delicious addition! Quinoa adds a wonderful texture, adds some protein and fiber, and makes the chili seem especially hearty….
