carrots…ok maybe I can like them
I have a love hate relationship with carrots. I like them in things such as soups or casseroles but I am not a huge fan of them on their own, that is until now. I decided it was time to create a carrot recipe that I would love and what a better time than Easter to fall in love with these cute little veggies. Carrots, Carrots and Carrots The first choice was to decide between the long beautiful ones or the cute little baby ones, and to help save on time (& some mess) I went with the cute baby version. OK now that I knew which carrots I was going to…

hippity hopping & some bunny bait
Easter is just a hippy hop away (get it…a bunny hops) & that means it is time to break out some of those fun Easter treats and this bunny bait is definitely one of my favorites. This super quick treat is perfect for all your Easter baskets, teacher treats, neighbor treats or just a fun yummy for the kids. A treat for everyone The beauty of this little Easter bunny bait treat is that you can use almost any combo of candy that you like. This time I used robins eggs, plain M&M’s and sprinkles with popcorn and pretzels…but you could use chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, mini chocolate caramels, mini peanut…

a flourless cake like no other…
Spring is coming and it is time to start thinking about fun desserts and this Flourless Chocolate Cake is a must make!! No Flour Needed I have always been a big fan of flourless chocolate cakes, anytime it is on a menu I will order it (unless there is something caramel) but I have never made one at home. With Spring coming it is the perfect time to make this super decadent treat. Now I know there are more traditional desserts for Spring like carrot cake, cupcakes, or maybe a fruit option, but for me it is all about chocolate (with a little kick). Amping it up a bit One of my favorite additions…

ham, ham, beans & more ham…
Easter has come and gone, and if your refrigerator looks anything like mine it loaded with tons of leftovers. I have some au gratin potatoes, green bean casserole, pistachio fluff and of course ham…tons & tons of ham…so why not add some beans to the mix? It never fails, you think you buy a ham that is the perfect size for all the peeps you have coming, where most of it will be eaten and there won’t be half a ham in your fridge the next day…but it always seems to happen. Every year I say I am going to buy a smaller ham (and I did this year)…

an au gratin star is born…
The life of a food blogger is not as glamorous as some might imagine, my poor Hubby rarely gets a repeat meal (even his favorites), sometimes a recipe has to be made several times before it is right, and sometimes we even celebrate a Holiday early so I can get all the recipes ready to post… but having these au gratin potatoes several times is well worth it. This year we celebrated Easter a week early and had my brother, sis-in-law, their precious kids, sis-in-laws mom and my parents. It was a great day filled with lots of great food, but the star of the dinner (besides the ham, carrots, green…
