The other day we stopped at Casey's to get some gas and I caught sight of a sign. Not just any old sign, but one with a Chicken Bacon Ranch PIZZA. And it looked gooooooood. So good I almost broke my diet right then and there to order the pizza. But I didn't. Instead, I quickly dreamed up a way I could have that pizza for Super Bowl Sunday with more diet-friendly ingredients ... and bite-size. And that's how … [Read more...]
We're less than a week away from Super Bowl Sunday and I don't about you but we're busy prepping the house for some good food and fun. Yesterday we made a quick trip to Sam's Club to stock up on some appetizers and snacks to feed the family and needed to do it on a budget. Personally, I love going to Sam's Club to fill up the fridge with food for holidays and special occasions. I can get a lot of bang for my buck and … [Read more...]
Super Bowl Sunday is a day usually spent at home with our family so we tend to make a lot of kid-friendly appetizers and side dishes. If that's something you're looking for then your kids will love these cheesy bacon tater tots. The ingredients are simple and can be thrown together in less than 30 minutes. Just preheat your oven to 425 degrees F and fill a cupcake pan with liners. Drop 4 frozen tater tots into … [Read more...]
With the Super Bowl just a week away I thought now was a good time to dust off some of my favorite snack recipes and add a few new ones to the menu. My husband is always ordering up his favorite buffalo chicken wings for the big game but I thought it would be better (for him) if I found a way to incorporate his favorite flavors into a lighter, healthier dish that's perfect for snacking. Since I had a few cans of … [Read more...]

A few months ago I shared how much I loved the Giada De Laurentiis pasta products sold at Target stores and now I'm even more excited to share a few more of her grocery products and even bakeware. Recently I was given the opportunity to sample a range of grocery products created by Giada De Laurentiis, a well known Italian Chef and Food Network Star. I've seen her branded products while shopping in Target many, many … [Read more...]
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of GravyMaster for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. This holiday season I have big plans of taking our traditional dishes and putting a twist on them with new products. One dish I love to serve as an appetizer for Christmas is my sausage-cheddar meatballs. However, this year I'm saucing them up a bit with GravyMaster flavoring. GravyMaster may … [Read more...]
My sister first introduced me to pickle rolls a few years back when she brought them as an appetizer during the holidays and believe me, I was hesitant to try these but I'm glad I did because they are addicting. Now before you look at these ingredients and think, she must be pregnant, I'll say ... no, I'm definitely not pregnant, nor will I ever be again. These are not some weird appetizer that only a crazy, … [Read more...]
In my daughter's own words ... nom nom nom nom nommmmm I can say without a doubt, these Mediterranean Spiced Mozzarella Sticks are the best "fried cheese" as we call it, that I've ever tasted. And believe me, I've had a lot of friend cheese, it's my favorite appetizer and I try them at every restaurant I go to. Unlike traditional Italian mozzarella sticks these are flavored with McCormick Mediterranean Spiced … [Read more...]
Before I admit this out load, try to hold back your jaw dropping gasps. I'm pretty sure even my good friend Emilie is going to shake her head at this one. I've never tried an avocado before, not even in a guacamole dip. Sure I've seen it in restaurants, even had it make an appearance on my plate at some point but I couldn't get past the green color. However, that's about to end. Thanks to Avocados from Mexico, … [Read more...]
