Americans love to gather together and eat - and the Super Bowl is the perfect excuse to down our favorite Game Day foods. What will you be eating on Super Bowl Sunday? Football foods from hotdogs to cheeseburgers and fries pair well with another all-American tradition: Heinz® Tomato Ketchup. This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of ...

How to Make Fruit Salad with Yogurt
Whenever I try to think of healthy snacks for kids, this simple fruit salad comes to mind. I have a couple of picky eaters at my house, but luckily they all like to eat most kinds of fruit. And they all love yogurt. I grab whatever fruit we have on hand and cut it into bite-sized pieces. Then mix it up with a spoonful or two of yogurt. Strawberry or plain vanilla yogurt works best for us, but you can use your favorite flavor. Some of our ...
How to make Ice Cream out of Snow
Yes, you can eat snow! (Just don't eat YELLOW snow - that's always a good rule to follow.) My grandmother used to make snow ice cream for us kids on the rare occasions it snowed in Alabama. I honestly don't know how she managed to scrape up enough for a bowl of ice cream -- because even when it snowed, there was barely anything on the ground at all. Grab a bowl and a spoon. And a snow shovel. ...
Easy Christmas Appetizers: “The Grinch” Caprese Kabobs
I am always on the lookout for easy Christmas appetizers during the holiday season. Last week, one of my kids brought home "The Grinch" fruit kabobs (green grape for the head, a banana slice for the Santa hat bottom, and strawberry topped with a mini marshmallow for the top of the hat). It was really cute! And led to the inspiration for today's recipe. It's not really a "recipe" - you can pretty much figure out how to make it by looking at the ...

20 Amazing Hot Chocolate Recipes to Try
Winter can be cold - and my favorite way to warm up is with a sweet cup of delicious hot chocolate. If you are a fan of Starbucks hot chocolate (I am!) you quickly realize how a few dollars per cup adds up. The good news is that you can make all sorts of gourmet hot chocolate (that tastes just as good, or possibly even BETTER than Starbucks?) at home. Some of my favorite food bloggers have posted the most amazing hot chocolate recipes I can't ...
Strawberry Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast Recipe
I was thumbing through the new In the Kitchen with David: Back Around the Table cookbook for the first time, and looked up at my husband and said, "I want to eat every single thing in this cookbook!" I couldn't believe it. I have never found a cookbook where all 150+ recipes sound like something I want to make for my family. I'm serious, I want to make Every. Single. Recipe. Better yet, I'd love to have David Venable over to my house and ...
How to Make Mint Chocolate Sugar Scrub
I was hungry the day I decided to whip up a few batches of homemade sugar scrub. And apparently I was craving chocolate, because a sugary cocoa/peppermint combination sounded just perfect to me. A few months ago, I started experimenting with easy sugar scrub recipes. Even though you can use regular granulated white sugar or brown sugar, I think I like using turbinado sugar the best because it has a larger sugar crystal size. The larger ...
