This dessert. Oh boy. It has everything going for it. Lush desserts are usually made with a shortbread crust or something similar and topped with fluffy goodness in the form of pudding and whipped topping and often with some sort of fruit. My mom makes a lemon lush that’s to die for but I digress. No […]

Homemade Bath Bombs, makes two large size or 3-4 “Easter Egg” size depending on your mold (you can easily double or triple)

4 oz. baking soda
2 oz. corn starch
2 oz. citric acid
2 oz. Epsom salt
1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons water
1 teaspoon essential oil
1 1/4 teaspoon oil (I like coconut or olive oil here)
1-2 drops food coloring (optional)

In a bowl combine the dry ingredients (the first four listed above). Whisk to remove any clumps, corn starch tends to be clumpy. In a small glass jar stir together the wet ingredients (the last four ingredients listed). If you’re using coconut oil, give it a quick melt in the microwave or stove top first so it will more easily combine with the other ingredients. Slowly pour the liquid mixture in with the dry mixture, whisking as you go. If you see the mixture fizz or foam, you may be adding the liquid too quickly. Once all the wet ingredients are combined with the dry, take a small amount in your hand and squeeze it together. It should stick together fairly well in one or two big chunks. If it’s still too powdery to hold together, just add a tiny bit more water and mix until it does hold together. You can really see this in the video tutorial—so watch that if you are unsure about how much it should stick together.

Living in Texas, there is almost nothing better than finding good Tex-Mex…especially if it can be made in the privacy of my own kitchen. Imagine this: Early on a Sunday morning, birds chirping outside, heat already radiating off the driveway, a soft breeze bringing in the scent of roses growing outside of my window, and the sound of eggs and bacon sizzling on the stove. That’s why I love these Breakfast Nachos. They are everything good about Texas, and summer, and exactly what I crave for me and my family on these hot, summer days. Enjoy!

What You Need To Make Breakfast Nachos:

• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 1 red pepper, chopped
• 1 cup kale, chopped
• 1 cup Mexican shredded cheese
• 2-3 fried eggs
• 2-3 jalapeños, sliced
• 2-3 fingerling potatoes
• 3-4 flour tortillas
• 8-10 cherry tomatoes
• salt, to taste
• black pepper, to taste
• 5 Tablespoons olive oil, divided
• Sour Cream (option)
• Salsa (optional)

 

How To Make Breakfast Nachos:

Chop all veggies then set aside.

Slice fingerling potatoes (I prefer to slice potatoes to a 1/4″ – 1/2″ thickness),add Kosher salt and cracked black pepper then bake on a cookie sheet in 350 degree oven until finished, set aside.

In a hot skillet blister cherry tomatoes using 1 Tablespoon of olive oil, then set aside.

Wipe out skillet and using 1 Tablespoon of olive oil pan fry kale and set aside.

Cut flour tortillas into triangles and brown in a lightly oiled skillet using 1-2 Tablespoons of olive oil, set aside.

Add final tablespoon of olive oil in a hot skillet fry 2-3 eggs and set aside, sunny-side up.

Fry bacon until crispy then crumble, when cool enough to safely handle.

When all ingredients are prepared layer veggies, potatoes, eggs, bacon and cheese over cut triangles.

Add sour cream and serve with salsa. Enjoy!

Pro Tip: Want to turn this into a lunch treat that your family will rave about? Swap out the eggs for grilled chicken breast and the sour cream for ranch dressing. Don’t forget some sliced avocado! Ranch Chicken Nachos…Mmmm…

Cookie Monster Fudge is such a fun recipe to make with your kids. It combines three dessert favorites (chocolate chip cookies, fudge and candy), and looks super cool if you add some edible Cookie Monster eyes to the top.

Ingredients:

• 3 cups Wilton Blue Candy Melts
• 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 cup mini Oreos + more for topping
• 1/2 cup broken up chocolate chips cookies + more for topping

Directions:

Line an 8×8 baking dish with foil.

Over low heat on the stove, stir together the candy melts and the sweetened condensed milk until melted and smooth.

Stir in the cookies pieces. Pour the fudge into the baking dish.

Press cookies into the top of the fudge. Add candy eyes at this point if desired for a Cookie Monster look. Allow to cool for 3-4 hours until completely set (you can speed this up by putting it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes).

This recipe is so entertaining to make for Halloween, or they could even work at a birthday party for a little one that loves Sesame Street. Even though these are a wacky color, the fudge is still nice and soft, and as delicious as you’d expect.

 

Cut into squares to serveThis fudge is great for anyone who loves Sesame Street!
