ith the heat of the summer already rearing it's ugly head here in Texas, I'm gearing up with some fun and healthy cool-me-down treats.
The inspiration for this tasty little number came from one of my go-to sources. However, I wanted something that was a little easier and a lot more healthy!
Faux ice cream is so fun to play around with. I plan on making a lot of variations this summer with all sorts of fruits...
Read MoreThis BBQ Sauce is amazing!
How amazing? I'm making some more tomorrow to take to my parents house for a BBQ and still have one more thing planned this week to do with it after that.
I was fortunate enough to get a bottle of Musselman's Apple Butter sent to me this week, at no cost. I immediately began to do research. What could I do with a bottle of apple butter? I found that there were so many things to do with it that I couldn't settle on just one.

It's fun (and a bit challenging sometimes) to give her healthier alternatives to foods that all kids grow up with!...

I'll be honest, this final dish gave me one of those eye-rolling experiences. I thought it would be good... but this was amazing.
I love buffalo sauce... add some bacon in there and I'm done.
I will absolutely be making this again in the very near future.
Read MoreAnd so the blissful week of bacon inspired recipes continues!
These cinnamon rolls are the perfect morning treat. Reminiscent of pigs-in-a-blanket or pancakes with bacon. The house smelled absolutely wonderful while these were in the oven.
If you're not all about bacon, and I know that there are actually a few of you out there, you can definitely substitute the bacon for another ingredient such as dried fruit or nuts. Yum!...
