November 3, 2014 ·

Transform your every day chocolate cake into something special with this Heavenly Chocolate Cake. Thank you to MIRACLE WHIP (through the Mom It Forward Blogger Network) for sponsoring this post.

We are already starting to think of holiday eats and treats (and gifts, if you talk to Adam). And of course the holiday season is not complete without delicious desserts. As much as I love to bake, after busy days of being mommy taxi, taking care of the kids, exercising and working, I find myself with little extra time (and energy) to devote to making our favorite desserts. That is where quick and easy desserts, like this Heavenly Chocolate Cake, come to the rescue. With just a few simple ingredients, this delicious cake can be made in minutes!

Kick off the unofficial start to summer with a fun twist on a classic summer staple with this Kale and Apple Potato Salad! Thank you to MIRACLE WHIP (through the Mom It Forward Blogger Network) for sponsoring this post.

With the school year coming to an end and Memorial Day just around the corner, let the unofficial start of summer begin! I used to think of summer as a time to relax, but our summer schedule is packed with camps, classes and potluck parties. I always like to bring something special to potlucks (in addition to a dessert of course!) but often don’t have a ton of time to spend on it. That’s where this Kale and Apple Potato Salad comes to the rescue!…

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!
